At Safeguard Inspections, we provide comprehensive scaffold inspections to ensure your
structure is safe, compliant, and built to industry standards.
Our inspections cover all critical
safety and regulatory elements:
What we Check
Regulatory Compliance
We ensure all working platforms meet statutory regulations and follow TG20:21 guidance.
Safe Access & Egress
We confirm that all entry and exit points are secure, accessible, and safe for use.
Foundation Stability
We inspect the scaffold base to ensure it's stable, adequately supported, and protected
against subsidence or interference.
Protection at Ground Level
We assess for risk of damage from traffic, interference, or external hazards at the lower
scaffold levels.
Load Capacity
Scaffold structure is checked to support its intended loads using TG20:21 compliance sheets
or specific design drawings.
Ties, Bracing & Anchorage
We verify the scaffold is properly tied, anchored, and braced to remain stable under load
and environmental conditions.
Anchor Proof Testing
All anchors are checked and proof-tested by a competent person. Pull test results are logged
and securely stored.
Local Authority Requirements
We confirm compliance with local council rules – including lighting, hoarding, fenders – and
check for hazards such as low headroom or protruding tubes.
