What we do in Ilkeston

Six services,one local number.

Ilkeston houses

We know Ilkeston'shouses and streets.

Ilkeston grew on coal, iron and lace, from a town of under 2,500 people in 1801 to more than 25,000 by 1901. That's why so much of it is Victorian and Edwardian red-brick terraces, with Welsh slate roofs, brick chimney stacks and, on plenty of streets, bay windows at the front.

Much of the town centre, around the Market Place, Bath Street, South Street and Wharncliffe Road, is a conservation area, full of late Victorian and Edwardian buildings. Kirk Hallam was built up in the 1950s by the town council and Stanton and Staveley, with more homes added in the 1960s and 70s.

Each of those needs a different scaffold. Danny looks at the house before pricing it, so the quote covers what your job needs.

Permits and practicalities

The Ilkeston bitsworth knowing.

  • Front on the pavement?

    Many of Ilkeston's terraces open straight onto the pavement, so a front scaffold usually needs a licence from Derbyshire County Council, the highway authority for the town. The council needs notice, so tell us early. We'll say at the quote whether you need one, and we apply for it for you.

  • Shared walls and chimneys

    On a terrace, the chimney stack and the party wall often sit on the boundary with next door. If the scaffold needs to go on their side, you'll need their say-so first, so it's worth asking early.

  • Parking on terraced streets

    Terraced streets fill up with cars. If you can, keep the space outside the house clear on the day so we can get close to unload.

  • In the conservation area?

    Scaffolding doesn't need planning permission, in the conservation area or anywhere else. The work you're having done might, so check with Erewash Borough Council's planning team before you book it in.

What people say

Our first review,and the bar we're keeping.

Danny came to put scaffolding up on our property so we could treat the Virginia creeper. He was punctual, friendly, and efficient and came out at short notice when we needed help. He completed the job with minimal disruption at a very competitive price. Would highly recommend.
