Scaffolding Access Inspections Limited

SCAFFOLDING INSPECTION COMPANY
We are an established company based in London, but have scaffold inspectors that cover the whole of England and Wales. Our inspectors provide a complete scaffolding inspection service that meets the legal requirements. Our friendly and helpful team of advanced professionals provide comprehensive reports that meet all current regulatory standards;

• TG20:21 – Technical Guidance for Tube and Fitting Scaffolds


• BS EN 12811 – British/European Standard for Tube and Fitting Scaffolds


• BS EN 12810 – British/European Standard for System Scaffolds provided within 24 hours

Whether you need weekly or one-off scaffold inspection, we ensure that your company complies with the ‘Work at Height Regulations 2005’ – and that the scaffold you are using or providing is safe to avoid accidents and punitive fines from the Health & Safety Executive.

A site visit can normally be arranged within 48 hours. SA Inspections are available for all aspects of the construction industry – from new build construction to maintenance and regeneration projects.

How Our Inspections Work

1. Onsite visit
Our fully qualified team will be onsite at the agreed time to conduct a complete inspection of your scaffolding.

2. Fully Compliant Reports
We will provide you with a fully complaint repot within 24 hours for your scaffolding. This can be shared with all relevant parties.

3. Scheduled visits
We come back onsite each week until your scaffolding has been taken down giving you total peace of mind.

What We Do

Inspections

Our standard inspection includes a thorough examination that ensures:

• That the platforms comply with statutory regulations and the recommendations of TG20:21


• That both the access and egress are suitable and safe


• That the foundations are adequate, and are not likely to be disturbed or undermined


• That the lower portion of the scaffold is not liable to damage by interference, accident, traffic or any other extenuating issues


• That the scaffold is appropriately constructed to carry loads, following the guidance from the TG20:21 compliance sheet or design drawing


• That the scaffold is correctly tied, anchored and braced to maintain stability under load and environmental factors


• That the anchors have been installed and proof tested by a competent person. Once the inspector has received the anchor pull test they will save it on file


• That the scaffold complies with the requirements of the Local Authority, including lighting, hoarding and fenders, and in general is not constructed in a way that can cause damage or injury to persons due to protruding tubes, low headroom or other issues or hazards

Audits

• Weekly scaffolding inspections


• One-off scaffold inspections


• Anchor pull testing on site

Technology

At SA Inspections, we use a system called Scaff Inspector to demonstrate your scaffolding has been checked and is ‘fit for purpose’.

Scaff Inspector is a digital system that supports businesses with inspection planning, equipment inspections and inspection reporting to maximise safety, improve resource performance and minimise costs.

Scaff Inspector helps you report and communicate on the test status of your scaffolding for health and safety, and maintenance – helping you to improve compliance with industry standards and enhance the performance and safety record of your business.
