About Priority Scaffolding
Priority Scaffolding (Cambridge) Ltd is a family-run scaffolding company based on Peverel Road in Cambridge. The same team handles the survey, the design, the erect and the strike, from a single domestic tower to a multi-site commercial programme.
CHAS and SafeContractor accredited through SSIP, Constructionline Gold, £5m public liability cover, CISRS trained scaffolders, and every scaffold erected to TG20:21 and SG4:22 with the drawings, calculations and RAMS supplied for your site file.
Why Priority
Building the company from the ground up means you deal with people who have actually erected the scaffold, not a call centre.
Design drawings, calculations and RAMS supplied for the site file, so your start date is never held up by admin.

On time, tidy, and off site when the job is done. That is why most of our work comes from repeat customers.
In detail
Clip-on guardrails for roof edges on flat and low-pitch roofs, giving an immediate fall barrier for roofing, inspection and maintenance work.
Edge protection for solar panel installers and HVAC crews who need a safe working edge without a full scaffold.
Temporary handrail systems for mezzanines, open floor slabs, stairwells and voids during construction and fit-out.
Bespoke configurations to suit parapets, voids or narrow areas where a standard rail will not fit.
Our work
Straight answers
Edge protection is a safety system designed to prevent falls from height. It typically includes clip-on guardrails or handrails fixed to the edges of roofs, floors or parapets, giving a physical barrier for workers near a drop.
Scaffolding is priced per job, not off a rate card. The price depends on the height and length of the elevation, how many lifts you need, whether the ground is level and clear, how long the scaffold needs to stand, and whether the job needs a temporary roof, sheeting or pedestrian protection. We quote free and in writing, with the hire period stated up front so there are no surprises if the job overruns.
During any project that involves working at height, especially roof work, solar panel installs, HVAC servicing or inspections. It suits short-term jobs where full scaffolding is not required.
Yes. All our edge protection and handrail systems meet SG4:22 guidance and are installed in line with industry best practice and site-specific risk assessments.
Lightweight, clamp-on systems can be deployed quickly with minimal disruption. We are used to working to tight schedules and will give you a clear start date.
