Scaffolding Tips for Brisbane

Brisbane's subtropical climate means scaffolding components can get extremely hot in summer — schedule erection and dismantle for early morning where possible

Queenslander-style homes with high set stumps often require additional scaffolding underneath — confirm scope with your scaffolder during the site visit

Brisbane council requires permits for any scaffolding encroaching on public footpaths — allow two to three weeks for permit processing
