How a job runs
Four stages. Lee handles the survey and the quote himself, and tells you up front if the job needs a licence from the council before anything goes up.
01
Call Lee or send the form with the location, the job type, a rough size and when your trades start.
02
Lee visits and measures the elevation, the ground, the access and the boundaries, then prices the scaffold and the hire period from what he has seen.
03
If any part of the scaffold stands on the public pavement we apply to the London Borough of Bromley first. Then we build it, tag it, and inspect it on the statutory seven-day cycle while it is up.
04
You tell us when the trades are done. We book the strike, take it down and clear the site.

Recent jobs
A selection of scaffolding GHM Scaffolding Kent Ltd has put up across Bromley and the surrounding area, from roof-level access on period homes to full shopfront gantries.
Where we work
Bromley is where GHM Scaffolding Kent Ltd is based and where most enquiries start. The town centre mixes commercial frontages on the High Street with Victorian terraces on the roads just off it, so a scaffold often has to work around shop signage or a narrow shared pavement. Where any part of it needs to stand on the public highway, we apply to the London Borough of Bromley for a licence before erection.
Victorian and Edwardian terraces with bay windows and short front gardens, so where the base plates can sit gets checked at survey.
Parts of Chislehurst sit within a conservation area, which can affect what a scaffold may look like from the road and how long any related permission takes.
A busy town centre with commercial frontages alongside residential streets further out, so briefs here range from shopfronts to house roofs.
Mostly inter-war semis with driveways and side returns, which usually gives a scaffold room to stand clear of the pavement.
A planned 1930s suburb with consistent house types on tree-lined roads, so overhanging branches and street trees are worth mentioning when you enquire.
Narrow terraced frontages onto quiet residential roads, where getting materials in is usually the main planning point.
Larger detached and semi-detached houses that generally give a scaffold more standing room on private ground.
Inter-war semis and later housing, with parking and access tighter than the plot size suggests on the roads near the railway line.
We also work in Bromley Common, Locksbottom, Keston.
