We can provide access and transportation for works on:
We can also make a ScaffFloat to any width so it fits in the lock width for that section of the waterway. With the addition of propulsion, our ScaffFloat Workboats provide a very low-cost self-propelled barge that can is very useful on canal projects.
GPS MACS required floating access on a narrow concrete-lined drainage channel in Tottenham, London. ScaffFloat mobilised 6no 8 x 4.2m pontoons, which were moored in the channel.
AR Demolition was demolishing an industrial building next to a busy canal in Birmingham. They required a pontoon to provide catchment for any stray material that would otherwise fall into the busy waterway, as well as access to the water facing elevation of the building.
A good example of “build-your-own” floating access. Scaffolding Ltd needed access for one of their clients to carry out an inspection and repairs on the remote and tidal Frog Firle Bridge, Alfriston.
TR Scaffolding requested a pontoon to assist with the installation and then subsequent dismantling of scaffolding on the riverside facade of the Buro Happold Building, Bath.
We mobilised 8m x 4m pontoon with over 3.5t payload capacity to carry materials and give access to a remote bridge on the River Tillingbourne.
Lutra Marine Limited requested a pontoon suitable for a 9t WM long reach excavator for dredging on the canal in Bude with their innovative new cutter head.
We mobilised a 6.0 x 2.9m pontoon which was designed specifically to fit just inside the lock for repair works on the Great Ouse river.
We mobilised a 24m long ScaffFloat pontoon for a project in Hilgay involving the Environment Agency and SRT Scaffolding.
We designed a 16×3.7m ScaffFloat Barge to transport 15t of scaffolding to a remote lock site so a civil engineering firm could carry out maintenance works.
Martin Childs LTD has been using ScaffFloats since late 2021. While working on canals there is a need for a welfare unit where normally access would be a problem.
