House scaffold
Terraces, semis and detached. Full elevation access for roofers, renderers, chimney work and guttering, with a proper boarded lift rather than a ladder and a prayer.
Bedwas, Caerphilly, South Wales
Family run, based on Bedwas House Industrial Estate. Houses, shop fronts, churches and industrial roofs across Caerphilly and the valleys. Put up quick, taken down clean, and boarded properly in between.

Independent birdcage scaffold, sheeted and temporary roofed, around a monument in Caerphilly town centre. That is the castle behind it.
What we do
Most of the week is domestic work across the valleys. The rest is everything a house scaffold is not: high street frontages, chapel elevations, roofs you cannot walk on and structures with nothing to tie into.
Terraces, semis and detached. Full elevation access for roofers, renderers, chimney work and guttering, with a proper boarded lift rather than a ladder and a prayer.
High street frontage designed round the pavement, so the doors stay open, the public keep walking past and the job still gets done.
Full height, multi lift access to tall stone and brick elevations. Chapels, spires and gable ends where there is no easy way up.
Decked out access over plant, ducting and fragile roof sheets, so trades can work across a roof without putting a foot through it.
Free standing structures for when there is nothing to tie into. Sheeted and temporary roofed if the work underneath has to stay dry.
Guardrails, toe boards, brick guards and debris netting. Every job goes up boarded, signed and fit to work off.

Range
Plenty of scaffolders stop at domestic. In one set of photographs off our own Google listing there is a chapel elevation in Blackwood, a monument in the middle of Caerphilly with the castle behind it, a high street pub front with the pavement kept open, and a deck out over an industrial roof.
Different buildings, different problems, same tubes and fittings. If you have been told a job is awkward, it is worth a phone call before you take that as final.
“Used many scaffolding firms over the last 30 years but this firm is by far the most reliable and skilled scaffolding team I have ever seen.”

Every photograph here is a real Hammer Scaffolding job, taken from our own Google listing. That is our board on the lift.

About
Hammer Scaffolding is a family business. Ivor, Jill and Byryn Williams are all named directors, appointed the same day, with nobody having left since. The yard is on Bedwas House Industrial Estate and the work stays local.
The limited company was registered in March 2020, though there are reviews on the Google listing from the year before that. Ivor is the name customers tend to use when they ring.
Every scaffold goes up with a site safety notice and our board on it, so anyone on site knows whose structure they are working off and who to ring if something needs moving.
Contact
Ring for a price, or send a couple of photographs of the elevation and roughly how long you need it up for. If you are not sure whether we cover you, ask.
