About Us

Excellence from the beginning ...
Since its formation in 2005 by Managing Director Colin Stephenson, Tilson Scaffolding has become a leading provider of scaffolding services with an unrivalled commitment to providing a professional and quality service.

Our rapid growth and success is based on the high level of service (average reaction time is less then 24 hours from 1st call), and very competitive prices this coupled with an excellent safety record has seen Tilson Scaffolding Ltd grow into the very successful Scaffolding Contractor that it is today. This has also been achieved by not only expanding our customer base but also by retaining our existing customers, who continue to trust us with their scaffolding needs.

Employees

Our employees are our main asset and their part in the company is vital. It is a matter of prime importance to us that all health and safety matters are conducted in a manner that gives everybody protection in the working environment. We actively enhance the level of our employee skill base. This is achieved by employing the right calibre of people in the first instance and ensuring that training and development is continued to maintain the highest standards.

It does not matter how many mission statements or visions a management team may produce- if the scaffolders aren't capable or simply don't care, a company will never provide a reliable high quality service.

Tilson Scaffolding Ltd is in a uniquely privileged position. Tilson uses only directly employed fully trained employees who are hourly paid, we do not pay any price work which we believe leads to corner cutting and  unsafe working. The vast majority of our competition relies either entirely or substantially on a nomadic sub contract work force who are on price work that will leave site as soon as a better offer appears.

Subcontract

We do not sublet any work. We always keep contracts under our direct control.

Transport

We have a wide range of vehicles for deliveries, from 4x4 pick ups for rural contracts, 3.5ton, 7.5 ton, 18 ton multi lift trucks & articulated trucks all used for specific contract requirements.

All vehicles are also fitted with satellite tracking to pinpoint their whereabouts, enabling the transport manager to respond quickly to changes in site requirements, and are also fitted with safety lighting to alert pedestrians of the vehicle at work. As well as offering significant productivity advantages
