Across the city

St Mellons and Rumney on the Newport side, then Roath, Splott and Cathays, Canton to the west, and Llanishen and Whitchurch to the north.

Roath, Cathays and Canton are full of long terraced streets, and plenty of those houses front straight onto the pavement or a very short front garden. Tell us what’s out the front when you ring.

Scaffolding on the pavement

Section 169 of the Highways Act 1980 says scaffolding put up on or over a highway needs a written licence from the highway authority, which is usually the council. In Cardiff that means the council. Ask us about the licence when we quote, and allow for it in your dates.

Getting a quote

Send the address, which sides need scaffolding, what the work is and when it starts through the quote form, or call Paul on 07366 533911.

The licence, council by council

Cardiff is covered by Cardiff Council. Our pavement licence guide sets out what it says next to the other councils we work in, with a link to each council’s own page where we could find one.
