AccessGetting Safely onto Brixworth Roofs

Will I need scaffold? A full re-roof always needs scaffold for safe working and to protect your property and the public. For this job scaffold is specified only for the full duration of the job (scaffold stays up start to finish), always itemised in your quote and arranged by us. Where pavement scaffold or a skip is needed on Brixworth's tighter streets, we sort the permit through West Northamptonshire Council before we start.
Can the work go ahead in winter? We plan re-roofs around the forecast and weatherproof at the end of each day so your home stays dry throughout. Re-roofs are scheduled around dry spells; we never leave a roof open overnight in poor forecasts. We plan Brixworth bookings around the forecast rather than risk trapping water or a half-finished detail.
