Rear Extension Scaffolding in Ashford
Extension scaffolds in Ashford are a builder's tool — the lift height needs to change as the brickwork rises, the loading bay has to serve the steels and the tile drop, and the strike has to line up with the plaster set. We build them to that sequence. Most of the Ashford work sits inside TN23 and TN24 and TN25. Mobilisation from our Medway yard runs via M20 (J9/J10), about 19 miles past Maidstone. Site inductions, programme dates and out-of-hours mobilisation tend to drive the brief. We're regularly on sites around Sevington logistics park and Eureka Park. Enquiries here run a balance of residential and commercial work, so the brief always starts with a site visit. On the commercial side, Eureka Park keeps us busy through the year. The nearest neighbouring towns to Ashford are Tenterden and Folkestone — handy if a job needs splitting across sites. From the same crew we also work Tenterden, Folkestone, Canterbury — usually within a 20-minute drive of a Ashford site.

Rear Extension Scaffolding FAQs from Ashford customers
How long is an extension scaffold up in Ashford?+
For a standard single-storey rear extension in Ashford, 6–10 weeks. Two-storey or larger runs 10–16 weeks. We coordinate strike with your builder so you're not paying standing hire.
Do we need scaffold from the start of the extension?+
Bricklayers need scaffold once wall plate height is reached, but roof work always does. We normally mobilise as the brickwork approaches eaves height in Ashford.
Can you work with our chosen builder in Ashford?+
Every time. Most of our Ashford extension work comes through builders. Give us the programme and we'll fit around them.
Will the scaffold need a licence for a Ashford extension?+
If it stays inside your boundary, no. If any part crosses the pavement or highway in TN23 we'll sort a licence with Ashford Borough Council — normally two working days notice.
Do you cover the villages around Ashford?+
Yes — we cover Tenterden, Folkestone, Canterbury, Maidstone from the same crew that works Ashford. Send the postcode and we'll confirm.
Will the scaffold mess up the garden when it comes down?+
We use protection sheeting under the take-down, walk every section out by hand on awkward Ashford sites rather than dropping it, and leave the lawn and patio as we found them. If anything's damaged we put it right.
Extensions in Ashford depend on the scaffold being ready when the trade shows up. Our programme is your programme. Speak when you're ready — TN23 is local for us. That's how we run every job across Ashford Borough Council.
