What this work involves
Let working height, loading, ground conditions, access and protection of occupants determine the appropriate provision.
- Working height and arrangement
- Access and protection
- Assembly, inspection and duration
Use the following design considerations when coordinating this service with a wider project. Agree which parts apply to your request.
Document locations and causes so investigation and construction share the same assumptions.
What the drawing needs to explain
Create a defect map with photographs, locations and investigation questions. Include inspection access and the intended drainage path in the repair proposal.
Decide this before construction
Assess the cause first, then establish the repair extent. Record concealed work before applying finishes and keep agreed inspection points clear.
Compare the complete intervention
Separate investigation, necessary repairs and improved access. Identify uncertainties in concealed areas, with an agreed decision point after opening them.
Cost factors for this service
Costs depend on size, duration, ground conditions and assembly access. Ask for the scope and selected specification to be described separately.
Bring this to the discussion
Photographs of the existing situation, available drawings and your requirements for scaffolding & site access. Identify the elements that should remain.
Questions about the work
What should I discuss before arranging scaffolding & site access?
Scaffold hire, assembly and inspection are separate elements. Define responsibilities and the work the arrangement is intended to support.
The design situations here illustrate choices; they are not completed projects or a diagnosis of your property.
