Rear Extension Scaffolding in Maidstone

A rear-extension scaffold in Maidstone covers three trades in one hire — bricklayer, roofer, plasterer or renderer. We design ours to serve all three without needing to be adapted mid-job, which is where costs and delays usually come from. Most of the Maidstone work sits inside ME14 and ME15 and ME16 and ME17. Mobilisation from our Medway yard runs via M20 (J6/J7), about 9 miles past Chatham. Site inductions, programme dates and out-of-hours mobilisation tend to drive the brief. We're regularly on sites around Parkwood industrial estate and Eclipse Park. Building stock around Maidstone is mostly Victorian terrace and post-war semi, which shapes how a scaffold has to go up. For residential scaffold work specifically in Maidstone: your home treated like ours. From the same crew we also work Chatham, Sittingbourne, Tonbridge — usually within a 20-minute drive of a Maidstone site. On the commercial side, Eclipse Park keeps us busy through the year.

How we run a rear-extension scaffold job in Maidstone

We don't sub the work out. The team that turns up to your Maidstone job is the team you'll see every week the scaffold is up — and the same team who strips it.

Rear Extension Scaffolding FAQs from Maidstone customers

How long is an extension scaffold up in Maidstone?+

For a standard single-storey rear extension in Maidstone, 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 Maidstone.

Can you work with our chosen builder in Maidstone?+

Every time. Most of our Maidstone extension work comes through builders. Give us the programme and we'll fit around them.

Will the scaffold need a licence for a Maidstone extension?+

If it stays inside your boundary, no. If any part crosses the pavement or highway in ME14 we'll sort a licence with Maidstone Borough Council — normally two working days notice.

Do you give a quote without seeing the property in Maidstone?+

We give an indicative price over the phone if it's a standard job, but every written quote for Maidstone comes after a free site visit — that's the only way the price reflects the actual access, building height and trade requirements.

Can you reach jobs on the Medway estates from your yard?+

Yes — we're based ourselves on the Medway, so Maidstone jobs and the surrounding industrial estates are short runs for us. Lead times and mobilisation costs reflect that.
