Most of our projects are on live buildings in busy City Centre areas, therefore we install specialist suspended scaffolding to ensure the impact on buildings, the residents, or customers is kept to an absolute minimum!
Suspended scaffolding also saves the client £££ when compared with traditional scaffolding from the ground up.
All of our scaffold is bespoke designed to meet the client’s needs.
Here are the benefits to suspended scaffold:
Up to 90% reduction on hire costs (less scaffold less cost)
Up to 60% reduction labour costs (less scaffold to build, the quicker it takes)
No disruption to footfall traffic for offices/hotels/shops/businesses as there is no scaffold positioned on the pavement.
More secure from trespassers or potential break ins, as the scaffold is installed at height and therefore it is not easy to access from the ground.
Less council permits required, saving time, hassle and money.
No hoarding required, another cost saving measure.
More aesthetically pleasing from the outside, particularly useful if the building is a hotel or bar trying to attract customers.
Improved lighting and ventilation for internal building users, conventional scaffold systems restrict natural light and, in most cases, prevent the windows from being opened.
If the scaffold is to be used for Crown to carry out works, we can design the scaffold so it is only accessible using rope access techniques, which adds an extra level of security.
Working on a large Grade Listed Building project can be challenging;
but Crown’s professionalism, knowledge and experience has proved invaluable when working with Conservation and the Council as Principal Contractor.”
