Our Services
E.D. Safety Inspections is a specialist scaffolding safety consultancy. Scaffolding business owners are legally required to ensure that all scaffolding work is performed by a qualified workforce and that the structures provided are safe, adhering to the Work at Height Regulations 2005.
Many businesses hire a specialist independent scaffold inspector to ensure that scaffolding is correctly erected and that the work environment remains safe throughout any project. Our team can provide ongoing guidance and advice on best practices for scaffolding safety.
Why choose E.D. Safety Inspections?
Our team has over 27 years of experience and expertise in the scaffolding sector, making them experts in the safe construction and maintenance of scaffolding structures. Our independent inspection services offer the crucial advantage of impartiality, demonstrating due diligence in managing scaffolding projects.
Compliance with health and safety regulations is a legal obligation for all businesses, and our independent inspections provide peace of mind by ensuring that required standards are consistently met. This benefits both scaffolding companies and the people and organisations that hire them.
Independent inspections also significantly reduce the risk of accidents by identifying potential issues before they escalate, particularly those related to falls from height, falling objects, or poorly constructed structures. Given that falls from height are the leading cause of construction fatalities in the UK, regular inspections - whether weekly, monthly, or on an ad-hoc basis—play a vital role in managing these risks and minimising the potential for serious accidents.
Independent scaffolding inspections
We conduct mandatory scaffold inspections every seven days, as UK regulations require, to identify potential risks and ensure your scaffolds remain safe for use. Our inspections are thorough and timely, providing essential safety checks. We can inspect domestic and commercial build sites, including new builds.
Monthly monitoring
Our comprehensive monthly monitoring service closely monitors your scaffolds' condition, allowing us to detect and address any issues before they escalate. This ensures ongoing safety and compliance throughout the project's duration.
One-off scaffolding inspections
Whether you have a particular concern or need an independent evaluation, our one-off scaffold inspections deliver a thorough and detailed analysis of your scaffold’s condition. This service ensures that any potential issues are identified and addressed promptly.
