What we do
An access tower is a free standing work platform, usually on lockable castors, built up to the height you need and moved along the job as the work goes. For short jobs at height it is often quicker and cheaper than a full scaffold, and much safer than working off a ladder.
Because we are a scaffolding company as well, we will tell you straight if your job needs a scaffold instead. Call 01223 411 377 with the job, the working height and the address, and we will come back to you with a price.

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.
CHAS and SafeContractor accredited through SSIP, £5m public liability and CISRS trained scaffolders.
On time, tidy, and off site when the job is done. That is why most of our work comes from repeat customers.
In detail
Towers suit work at height that is short, light and in one area, or that moves along a wall as it goes. Typical jobs include:
A tower is the right choice for a short job on firm, level ground where the work moves along a wall. A scaffold is usually the better answer for roof work, long runs of brickwork, heavy materials, jobs that run for weeks, or ground that is soft, sloping or uneven.
As a scaffolding company we do both, so we will tell you which your job needs rather than hire you the wrong thing. For bigger jobs see our domestic scaffolding and commercial scaffolding pages, or chimney scaffolding for work on the stack.
A tower is only as safe as the way it is put up and used. Before anyone climbs, check the basics:
The person building the tower needs to be competent to do it. PASMA is the recognised training for mobile access towers. If you are not sure, ask us when you book. Every scaffold we build goes up to TG20:21 and SG4:22, and we apply the same care to the advice we give on towers.

Straight answers
Yes. We hire out access towers alongside our scaffolding work. Call 01223 411 377 with the job, the working height and your postcode for a price and availability.
For a short job in one area it often is, because a tower takes less time to put up and take down. For longer jobs, roof work or long runs of wall, a scaffold often works out better. Tell us about the job and we will tell you which makes sense.
It depends on the height you need, how long you need the tower and where the job is. Call 01223 411 377 and we will give you a price.
The person building the tower needs to be competent to do it safely. PASMA is the recognised training course for mobile access towers. If you are not sure, ask us when you book.
Yes. Towers are often used for high ceilings, halls and shop interiors, as long as the floor is firm and level and there is room to build the tower. Tell us the ceiling height and floor space when you call.
We are based in Cambridge and work across Cambridgeshire, Suffolk, Norfolk, Hertfordshire and Essex. Call 01223 411 377 with your postcode to check tower availability.
