Hi, I’d appreciate the views of experienced scaffolders regarding the scaffolding erected outside this house for roof repair works.
The scaffolder has not provided a working design or drawing. Would this arrangement typically be considered TG20 compliant, or would a bespoke scaffold design be required?
If a scaffolding inspector is carrying out the required weekly inspections, what major defects or issues would you expect them to identify on an installation such as this? The inspection report I have seen contains only a few brief comments and does not include any photographs of the scaffold.
I would have expected a more detailed inspection record, particularly where defects or areas requiring attention have been identified.
Is this level of reporting considered adequate, and what information should a competent inspection report normally contain?
Also, what qualifications, training or cards should a competent scaffolding inspector hold to carry out these weekly inspections?
