Request a quoteAbout Staff4dshire ScaffoldingFrom a chimney scaffold on a terrace to full perimeter scaffolding on a housing development, our scaffolders cover Lichfield, Whittington, Shenstone, Fradley, Alrewas and Streethay. We plan each scaffold around the work that will be done from it, not the other way round.
Lichfield is a cathedral city with a large conservation area of Georgian and older brick buildings around the Close, Bore Street and Dam Street. Around that core are 20th-century estates such as Boley Park, Leomansley and Curborough, and big new developments at Streethay and on the southern edge of the city.
Older buildings in Lichfield can have uneven ground, cellar lights and delicate brickwork; we use boards, sole plates and careful ties so the scaffold protects the building as well as the people working on it. Lichfield's narrow historic streets and busy city centre mean scaffold layout, pedestrian protection and delivery times need planning, while the big new estates are far simpler to access.
For Lichfield (WS13 and WS14), planning applications are handled by Lichfield District Council, and highways matters such as scaffold licences, skips on the road and dropped kerbs by Staffordshire County Council. Our yard at Kimberley Business Park is about nine miles down the A51 from our Rugeley yard.
Clear communication matters: you will know when the scaffold is going up, who to call if it needs altering and when it will come down. Our own fleet means that if a programme changes, we can usually move with it.
Before erecting anything we look at the ground, the building, any overhead cables and how the scaffold will be used, then agree the layout, number of lifts and loading requirements with you. Scaffolds are inspected and handed over in writing, and we come back to adapt them as the job progresses.

📍 Rob, Lichfield
We turned Rob's garden in Lichfield into a complete outdoor living space, with sandstone paving, decorative gravel on a stabilisation grid, raised sleeper beds and a new 8x4 shed on a concrete base. The centrepiece is a semi-sunken block-and-brick firepit area under a hardwood pergola. We also fitted a new 7.3m canopy, a hardwood gate and new fencing, and kept the Red Robin and roses Rob wanted to save.
📍 Becky, Lichfield
We restored Becky's paving in Lichfield. We cleaned and re-grouted around 60m² of patio, plus the pathway, the steps and the coping tiles, so the whole garden looks fresh again.
Lichfield's narrow historic streets and busy city centre mean scaffold layout, pedestrian protection and delivery times need planning, while the big new estates are far simpler to access.
If the scaffold stands on the pavement or road, a licence is needed from the highway authority, which for Lichfield is Staffordshire County Council. We can advise on the application. Scaffolds entirely on private land do not need one.
Yes. We scaffold for both housing and commercial projects, from single homes and housing developments to commercial buildings.
If the scaffold needs access over a neighbour's land, you need their agreement first. We are happy to explain the layout to them before work starts.
We cover Lichfield and nearby places including Whittington, Shenstone, Fradley, Alrewas and Streethay, plus Staffordshire and the West Midlands.
