Cost of <b>scaffolding</b>

  Hi anyone know what a guide price to erect scaffolding would be:

Suburban north London - unrestricted parking.
All materials to be brought through the house.
One straight run of about 6m and two storeys high to gain access for the
guttering and windows?

Is it a one off cost or weekly/monthly hire?

Pretty sure you can do either, but generay a one off cost.

Brother in law has just had a set, right up to the roof.  I can find
out what he paid.

Weekly hire can be very cheap if the scaff company haven't got it hired
out to anybody else.

Almost every scaffolding firm has slightly different hire contracts/rates
The answer is to ring a few, in Sussex what you are asking would be about
?500 fixed price for upto 3 months.

If you are in folkestone it's several times that for any scaffolding at the
moment. It's bits of the town are still covered in the stuff following the
earthquake.

A friend up the road had a quote of 490 quid for some to repoint the
back chimney. In the quake it fell down - cost him nearly 2k for the same
company. 400% increase in price in a week :-/
