Saffron Walden Scaffolding

Avoid using this company! We have been doing work on our house for over a year and this company is the worst we encountered during the entire process! We asked them to erect the scaffolding in October 2021 which they did.. without attaching a ladder so we could actually use it. After 2 months of chasing them almost daily to come back to put a ladder on so we could actually use it, pushing back other work the entire time, they finally showed up and put the ladder on. When it came to getting them to take the scaffolding they continually didnt turn up when promised and finally removed it after we had to take advice from trading standards and take legal advice. We were given the scaffolding for free, however we lots hundreds in deposits from pushing back work. An appalling company.

while working on my neighbor's house, they chose to use my garden as their route for taking away the scaffolds. this was done without asking permission (a simple knock and ask may have cleared up the situation). when someone else in my house stopped them and pulled them up for the trespass, they became very aggressive, insulting and vulgar towards them. not a company that I would use.

'a colleague of mine had an unfortunate encounter with a team of scaffolders from this company, aggressive, rude and totally disrespectful with this in mind and hearing about what went on I would heartly recommend finding a different company.

What a nightmare of an experience. This company did work on my neighbouring property un connected to me. They stood on my roof accessed my garden went all around the house without permission. When I politely asked them to please leave I was sworn at and called names and they still continued to use my property as they wished even moving my bins to make them getting around my property easier. I am a single disabled lady with health issues and felt completely intimidated and scared. I have the ring doorbell footage. I went to get changed and luckily I hadn't quite taken my dressing gown off before seeing 3 men outside the window. The language attitude and behavour was appaling from a simple request to please not tresspass. The response was it's not our fault access is difficult and the sooner you shut up and swear word insert - we can be gone, amongst other awful name calling and swearing and aggression. I cannot comment on the work only the conduct and the trespass action and attitude to a lady on her own and vulnerable. People avoid. I don't like leaving negative reviews as someone self employed I get that we all need to be working I love leaving positive ones but really feel for this one it needs highlighting. To roll scaffolding down my roof slamming it onto my courtyard then walk it all around my property to put it in the van is trespassing simple as. I asked them nicely and was verbally abused and they did not stop the use of property without my permission. Buyer beware on these guys.
