Where I work in Essex
Thurrock, Grays, Tilbury, Basildon, Billericay, Brentwood, Epping, Harlow and Chelmsford. Southend and Colchester are covered for weekly contracts with several scaffolds.
On the route
Essex sites are taken on in groups, so several scaffolds on one visit is the usual arrangement. Essex visits usually pair with Dartford and north Kent on the same run.
Why Essex contractors use an independent inspector
For a weekly contract in Essex the arrangement has to be worth the distance for both of us, which is why I take on sites in groups rather than one at a time. In return you get the same thing a Surrey contractor gets: a fixed day, a named inspector who knows your scaffolds, a Schedule 7 report with photos within 24 hours, and a summary email that tells the site manager what to fix. For principal contractors it is one independent record across every scaffolding subcontractor on the site.
"Several scaffolds, one visit, one record."
What you get
- A Schedule 7 compliant report with captioned photos, a clear verdict and defects carried forward, within 24 hours
- A short summary email of the actions that matter
- One named inspector on every visit
