Render & Rendering Scaffolding in Chatham
Rendering in Chatham usually runs on Victorian terrace — post-war and 60s stock that's been repainted too many times. Our scaffolds give the applicator a clean full-height face to work off, with sheeting when the weather turns. Most of the Chatham work sits inside ME4 and ME5. Mobilisation from our Medway yard runs via M2 (J3) / A2, about 1 miles past Rochester. We're based on the Medway ourselves so mobilisation is fast and lead times are short. We're regularly on sites around Chatham Maritime and Dockside Outlet. From the same crew we also work Rochester, Gillingham, Strood — usually within a 20-minute drive of a Chatham site. Building stock around Chatham is mostly Victorian terrace and 1960s estate house, which shapes how a scaffold has to go up. On the commercial side, Dockside Outlet keeps us busy through the year. For residential scaffold work specifically in Chatham: your home treated like ours.

Render & Rendering Scaffolding FAQs from Chatham customers
How long is a render scaffold up in Chatham?+
For a full-house render in Chatham we're typically up 2–4 weeks — the applicator needs the scaffold through cure time, not just application. We plan the strike after the final coat is signed off.
How do you avoid leaving marks where the ties were?+
We use tie plugs the renderer specifies, remove them at strike, and the applicator patches the pockets during the last coat. Coordinated properly you don't see them.
Can you sheet the whole scaffold for silicone or K-Rend in Chatham?+
Yes — silicone systems in particular need protection through cure. We sheet with monoflex from erect and only remove it after the last coat has cured to the datasheet.
Do you scaffold render on ragstone or period walls?+
Yes, and we're careful about ties on Medway Council ragstone. We use resin fixings only where masonry is sound, and standalone bracing where it isn't.
Do you take a deposit before the scaffold goes up in Chatham?+
No deposit on standard residential and trade-led work in Chatham. Larger commercial mobilisations get phased payment terms written into the contract.
What about my neighbours in Chatham?+
On a terraced or semi-detached job in ME4 we'll talk to neighbours about access and any oversail of their boundary before we mobilise. Most are fine with it once they know what's planned.
