Domestic Scaffolding Specialists Across Kent & South East London
All Scaffolding Services Kent Ltd provides professional domestic scaffolding for homeowners and residential contractors throughout Kent and South East London. Whether you need a full house scaffold for a roof replacement, a chimney scaffold for repointing, or access for a loft conversion, our CISRS-qualified team designs, erects and dismantles every system to the highest safety standards.
Based in Hextable, we cover Dartford, Gravesend, Maidstone, Medway, Bromley, Bexley, Sidcup and the surrounding areas. We work directly with homeowners as well as roofing contractors, builders and tradespeople who need a reliable scaffolding partner for residential projects.
Every domestic scaffold we erect is fully compliant with TG20 and SG4 safety standards, inspected before handover, and covered by our £10m public liability insurance policy.
Roof Scaffolding for Homeowners
Roof work is one of the most common reasons homeowners need scaffolding. Whether your roofer is replacing a full roof covering, repairing storm damage, fitting new ridge tiles or installing solar panels, a properly erected scaffold provides the safe working platform they need to do the job efficiently and safely.
We erect scaffolding for all types of domestic roof work including felt and batten replacements, flat roof overlays, EPDM rubber roofing, and lead flashing repairs. Our scaffolders are experienced in working around all roof types — from Victorian terraces to modern detached homes — and we use protective pads and boards at every contact point to prevent damage to tiles, gutters and fascias.
Scaffolding is typically erected within 24–48 hours of booking and can be left in place for as long as your project requires. We arrange all council highway licences where scaffolding extends over a public pavement or road.
Scaffolding for roofers — how we work with roofing contractorsScaffolding for Loft Conversions & Extensions
Loft conversions and rear extensions are among the most popular home improvement projects in Kent and South East London, and both require scaffolding at multiple stages. For a loft conversion, scaffolding is needed to install dormer windows, rooflights, and new roof sections safely. For extensions, it provides access for bricklayers, roofers and renderers working at height.
We work closely with loft conversion specialists and building contractors to plan scaffold designs that give their teams maximum access without obstructing the site. Our scaffolds are designed to carry the working loads required for heavy materials such as roof trusses, concrete blocks and render.
If your project involves multiple trades working in sequence, we can adapt the scaffold configuration between stages — for example, adding a loading bay for materials delivery or extending the scaffold to cover a new roof section.
Chimney Scaffolding
Chimney repointing, rebuilding and flashing repairs all require safe access to the chimney stack. A properly erected chimney scaffold — whether a full chimney lift or a birdcage scaffold — gives your mason or roofer a stable working platform at the correct height, with guardrails on all open sides.
We erect chimney scaffolds for all types of domestic chimney work including repointing, rebuilding, flaunching replacement, lead flashing repairs and chimney pot replacement. We can also provide debris netting to protect your roof and garden from falling mortar and debris.
Chimney scaffolds are typically smaller and faster to erect than full house scaffolds, and we can often install them within 24 hours of booking. Contact us for a free site survey and no-obligation quote.
Chimney scaffolding — full service detailsScaffolding for Rendering & External Wall Work
External rendering, pebbledash removal, brick cleaning and external insulation all require scaffolding that provides full access to the external walls of your property. We erect independent scaffolds that give renderers and plasterers a continuous working platform at the correct height, with boards at every level and guardrails throughout.
We work with rendering contractors across Kent and South East London and understand the specific requirements of render scaffolds — including the need for close-boarded lifts to prevent render splashing onto the scaffold boards, and the importance of maintaining clear access to windows and doors throughout the project.
Scaffolding for rendering — full service detailsScaffold Hire for Homeowners
If you're a homeowner carrying out your own maintenance work — painting, gutter cleaning, window replacement or minor roof repairs — we offer scaffold hire on flexible terms. Our hire scaffolds are erected by our qualified team, inspected before handover, and dismantled when you're done.
All hire scaffolds include a handover inspection certificate and are covered by our public liability insurance for the duration of the hire. We can extend the hire period if your project takes longer than expected — just give us a call.
