Safety Tips for Working on Scaffolding in Chelsea

There are many great reasons to choose our scaffolding services in Chelsea and site safety is the biggest of all. Our studious approach is one that puts your interests first so that when you or your contractors are working on a job and need risk-free access to all parts of a build, this is what we will provide.

Below, we look at three of the main safety elements scaffolding contractors might use on a project to protect our clients and the public.

Wearing the Appropriate PPE

If you are working on a multi-level scaffold, or if you are likely to be doing jobs below or around the tower, a hardhat is an essential PPE item. Another piece of PPE that scaffolding erectors see as indispensable is a high-visibility vest. It is important that you stand out from the structure so that other contractors on the site can see you and know exactly where you are currently positioned.

Goggles, especially when drilling brickwork, help our Chelsea-based clients to avoid the discomfort of dust in the eyes and the potential for accidental falls. Safety boots are also essential to ensure a good grip on the platform, and to provide protection for the feet against heavy or falling materials.

Scaffolding Weight Loads

When a scaffolding company designs a structure for construction work in the Chelsea area, it is with a precise purpose in mind and calculations dictate a maximum load. This will be explained to you during the early phases of a job, and we will also alert you to other safety features on the scaffolding itself.

Never overload the scaffold.

Ask a provider of scaffolding services about the stories they have heard that relate to onsite accidents? It is often collapses that are mentioned, and a scaffold collapse is nearly always caused by misuse or overloading.

Working to a Plan

Working as a cohesive unit is essential for scaffolding contractors and anyone plying their trade at height. Miscommunication, lack of organisation (mislaid tools can be tripping hazards, as can randomly laid materials), and a general lack of strategy, can also endanger you. We have served the Chelsea area as a preferred scaffolding company that always operates to a plan.

Our scaffolding erectors synchronise to a point where jobs run like clockwork, and every member of our team knows exactly where they need to be and what they should be doing long before the job eventually commences.

Take a leaf out of our book and plan the job ahead, and you will be working safely like a scaffolding contractor in next to no time at all.
