  • Exactly my experience of scaffolders recently. I had scaffolding on the outside of my house to have solar panels installed. It was there for 7 weeks after the solar panels had been installed. Happily the only downside appears to be a very dead patch of grass where the scaffolders put a block of wood to support the end of the scaffolding on the side lawn, so I think overall I've got away lightly. I've also concluded that scaffolders aren't really people people. They erected the scaffolding without even knocking on the door to say they'd arrived, and removed it with no warning at all when I was out of the house. Probably a good thing.

  • This is also useful to hear.

    I'm trying to stay pretty relaxed about the scaffold still being up, since I don't think there's anything that can reasonably be done other than ask the builder at regular intervals. It's my downstairs neighbours who are more concerned, as the scaffold is in their front gardens, which I sympathise with, but I'm trying to get them to take the initiative to contact the builder themselves.

  • People in my road had their loft extension completed just before last Christmas.
    Scaffolding was removed ~4 weeks ago.
