Quick answer

What does a scaffolding contractor do, and who is responsible for it once erected?

A scaffolding contractor designs, erects, inspects and dismantles access scaffolds, typically £500–£2,000 for domestic work. Scaffolders must hold CISRS cards, and a scaffold standing on a pavement or road needs a council licence. Once erected it must be inspected before first use and at least every seven days, with the inspection recorded — that duty does not disappear because the job is domestic.

Scaffolding Contractor workmanship in Newark-on-Trent

Scaffolding Contractor terms explained — Newark-on-Trent glossary

CISRS Card(CISRS)
The Construction Industry Scaffolders Record Scheme card, the recognised proof of competence for erecting scaffolding. Labourer, trainee and advanced grades differ, and only carded scaffolders should be altering a structure.
TG20 Compliance(TG20)
The industry guidance covering scaffolds that fall within standard configurations. Anything outside it — unusual loading, bridging, pavement gantries — needs a bespoke design from a scaffold engineer rather than an experienced eye.
Scaffold Licence(Licence)
The council permission needed for a scaffold occupying a pavement or road, typically requiring lighting, signage and a pedestrian route. The contractor normally applies, but confirm who holds it and for how long — extensions cost money.
Handover Certificate and Scaftag(Scaftag)
The certificate confirming the scaffold is complete and safe to use, and the tag at the access point recording the last inspection. A missing or red tag means the scaffold should not be climbed, whoever is standing at the bottom saying otherwise.
