Can I enquire while my extension plans are still developing?
Yes. Explain what is known and which areas may need access. Your builder can add detail as the programme takes shape.
Hendon scaffolding
Scaffolding in Hendon.
Working on an extension, roof or refurbishment in Hendon? Describe the work area and how materials and people can reach it. Arkley can discuss scaffolding for homes, trades and commercial sites.
Rear and side access
A front photo may not show the whole job
For work at the rear or side, send photos of the route from the street as well as the elevation being worked on. Tell us about gates, passages, changes in ground level and any shared access. This helps us understand what would need to be checked on site.
If an extension or refurbishment has separate phases, explain which trade will need access at each stage. Your builder’s programme is useful even if the exact dates are still being agreed.
Planning a roof job?
Our roofing scaffolding guide covers the roof, chimney and gutter details to share with an enquiry.
Space outside the site
Flag any pavement or road impact
If a Hendon job within the London Borough of Barnet would use or affect a public footway or road, check the Barnet Council highways licence guidance. A site on private ground can still have delivery or access questions, so describe where vehicles can stop and where the scaffold may stand.
We can discuss the access requirements while you and your contractor confirm the project programme and any relevant permissions.
