About All Scaffolding Services Kent Ltd
All Scaffolding Services Kent Ltd is a family-run scaffolding contractor based in Kent, providing scaffolding services across Kent and South East London. The business was founded by Stewart Smith, who has over 34 years of experience in the scaffolding industry. We are a CISRS-qualified team with Constructionline Gold accreditation, CHAS and SMAS health and safety pre-qualification, and public liability insurance to £10 million.
We work with homeowners, roofing contractors, builders, developers, facilities managers and principal contractors across the region. Whether you need a simple domestic scaffold for a roof repair or a complex industrial access scaffold for a major refurbishment project, we provide the same level of service: a free site survey, a detailed written quotation, professional erection by qualified scaffolders, regular inspections throughout the hire period, and clean, efficient dismantling on completion.
34+ Years of Scaffolding Experience
Stewart Smith founded All Scaffolding Services Kent Ltd after more than three decades working in the scaffolding industry. That experience spans domestic, commercial and industrial scaffolding across Kent and South East London, including work on listed buildings, heritage structures, industrial plant, utilities infrastructure, commercial developments and thousands of domestic properties.
Our long track record means we have encountered and solved virtually every scaffolding challenge — from restricted access sites and complex roof geometries to live industrial environments and heritage conservation projects. We bring that experience to every job, however large or small.

Who We Work With
We work with a wide range of customers across Kent and South East London, including homeowners arranging roof repairs and loft conversions, roofing contractors and builders looking for a reliable trade scaffolding partner, developers and principal contractors managing commercial and residential developments, facilities managers responsible for planned maintenance programmes, and insurance loss adjusters arranging emergency weatherproofing for storm-damaged properties.
We are equally comfortable working on a domestic property for a homeowner as we are working within a principal contractor's supply chain on a large commercial project. Our accreditations and documentation capabilities mean we can meet the requirements of both.
Our Approach
Every job starts with a free site survey. We visit the site, assess the access requirements and design the scaffold before providing a written quotation. We do not quote blind from a description — we need to see the site to give you an accurate price and design the right scaffold for the job.
Once the job is booked, we agree a start date and confirm the programme. Our CISRS-qualified scaffolders erect the scaffold to the agreed design and provide a scaffold handover certificate on completion. We carry out regular inspections throughout the hire period and are available to adapt the scaffold if the scope of works changes. At the end of the hire, we dismantle and remove the scaffold, leaving the site clean and tidy.
We are a direct-contact business. When you call us, you speak to the people who will be doing the work — not a call centre or an account manager. We believe that direct communication is the foundation of a good working relationship, and we work hard to be responsive, reliable and easy to deal with.
