Excellent repair work and they alerted us to the bad installation of flue pipe through the roof which needed lead covering. They applied lead plate around the pipe and did a great job. Would definitely recommend.
Deadlines matter, especially in the construction world. That’s why we work hard to keep every project running smoothly and efficiently. You will be assigned a project manager that will oversee everything from prompt delivery to overseeing the professional erection and scheduled dismantling. The project managers, and team, ensures all scaffolding work is completed on time and within the agreed budget.

Your safety, and that of everyone on-site, is our top priority.
Temporary roofing isn’t just for rainy days, it safeguards entire projects from delays and damage. Whether you’re reroofing, converting a loft or leaving a structure exposed for several days, a temporary roof keeps moisture out and productivity high.
Investing in a temporary roof can actually save money in the long run by reducing weather-related downtime, protecting internal works, and ensuring warranties aren’t voided due to water ingress. It also allows trades to work safely and without interruption, even during the wettest months in Dorset.
At RV Roofing & Building, we offer a local and comprehensive scaffolding service – tailored to the specific needs of both residential and commercial projects throughout Dorset. Whether you’re undertaking a full property refurbishment, new construction or a small-scale repair, we provide safe and reliable scaffolding solutions.
Our core service involves the full erection and dismantling of scaffolding structures, carried out by trained professionals with an eye for precision and safety. From planning access routes to ensuring all fixings are secure and compliant. We take care of every detail.
Erection is handled swiftly and carefully, with minimal disruption to your site and/or business. Once the work is complete, dismantling is conducted quickly and with complete site clearance. Ensuring no leftover components or hazards. Whether the job spans a few days or several months, our team is punctual, professional – and always leaves the site as tidy as we found it.
When your project demands weather protection our temporary roof scaffolding systems are the ideal solution. These structures are designed to shield your site from rain, wind, or falling debris (particularly vital during roofing work or when buildings are left exposed for long periods).
Temporary roofs are often used for:
Our modular roofing systems are adaptable to almost any roof shape and height, providing full coverage without compromising safety or access. This ensures contractors can continue working regardless of weather conditions, avoiding costly delays.
Chimneys are difficult and often dangerous to access without proper support. That’s why we offer specialist chimney scaffolding services designed for safe and secure access to the top of your property. Whether you’re repointing, replacing leadwork, removing a chimney stack, repairing flashings or updating the fascia, we provide the solid structures that make it possible.
The team build with stability in mind – ensuring platforms are anchored safely and provide 360-degree access where necessary. Our team also ensures that all scaffolding sits evenly on roofs and doesn’t damage tiles or other existing materials.
We can supply and install access towers and working platforms to accommodate decorators, window fitters, gutter installers or builders.
Our towers offer:
This option is perfect for both commercial maintenance and domestic repairs where mobility and rapid setup are crucial. The access towers are available in various sizes and configurations depending on the access area and duration of the task, just drop us a message and the team can answer all your Access Tower questions.
Safety is paramount on any worksite and edge protection scaffolding plays a crucial role in this. We install robust guardrails and toe boards around the perimeter of your scaffold structure, helping prevent falls and ensuring compliance with UK HSE safety requirements.
Edge protection is essential for:
We assess each site for risk and supply the right level of barrier protection. The systems being modular are adaptable, fitting securely to both flat and pitched roofs.
Blocked or damaged gutters can cause serious water ingress issues if left unattended. That’s why we offer scaffold setups specifically for gutter and fascia maintenance or replacement.
Our gutter access scaffolds allow for:
Unlike ladder work, scaffolding provides a stable platform to work from, which is particularly useful when working on long runs of fascia or cast iron guttering that requires multiple tools. Optimum scaffold placement allows for direct access to all relevant parts of your roofline, even in awkward or narrow areas.
If you’re undertaking a new build, property extension or loft conversion. RV Roofing and Building provide full scaffold design and installation services throughout the local area and tailored to the demands of ongoing or proposed construction. Our team can work in co-ordination with architects, builders (or even roofers) to support every phase of your build.
Key features include:
Falls from height remain one of the leading causes of workplace accidents in the UK. That’s why edge protection isn’t a feature, it’s a legal and safety requirement.
By fitting guardrails, toe boards, and secure perimeter fencing on every elevated platform, we ensure total compliance with HSE regulations. But more importantly, it’s a proactive step to protect lives. Don’t settle for scaffolding companies who treat safety as an after-thought.
We understand that on-site co-ordination is crucial, which is why we’re flexible, punctual and always willing to work around your schedule. Our scaffold erections can be designed to grow with your project, evolving as your structure takes shape.
From your initial enquiry to the final dismantling of the structure, RV Roofing & Building is with you at every stage. We conduct site visits, offer free quotes, assign project and site managers, whilst always providing honest guidance based on our 20+ years of experience. Whether you’re planning a small refurbishment project or need a long-term scaffold setup, we deliver results you can count on.
At RV Roofing & Building, health and safety isn’t just a requirement it’s the foundation of everything we do. We understand the risks involved in working at height and take every possible measure to ensure the safety of our staff, clients and the general populace.
All our scaffolding erections are fully compliant with current UK health and safety regulations, including the Work at Height Regulations 2005. Also each member of the team receives regular training to stay updated on best practices, safe handling procedures and emergency protocols. Every site is different, which is why we carry out a site-specific risk assessment and method statement (RAMS) before work begins – ensuring our scaffolding system is tailored to the conditions and hazards of the environment.
High-quality and regularly inspected materials that meet the latest safety standards. Our scaffolds are erected using correct load-bearing practices, proper bracing, secure fixings and protective barriers where required. All platforms include toe boards and guardrails as standard, with additional fall prevention systems fitted as needed.
In addition to protecting those on the scaffold, we prioritise site cleanliness, traffic management and public safety in high-footfall areas. We use warning signs, debris netting and secure barriers whenever appropriate. This maintains a safe environment throughout the project duration.
Safety is a shared responsibility and with RV Roofing & Building, you can be confident that every precaution has been taken to deliver a secure and compliant service from start to finish.
Whether you’re managing a residential renovation, commercial build, or urgent repair. RV Roofing & Building delivers safe, fully insured scaffolding solutions tailored to your needs.
Our experienced team provides fast setup, expert support and total peace of mind, from first fix to final dismantle.
Home extensions and new builds evolve in stages. If your scaffold needs to evolve with the project you are in the right place. We specialise in phased scaffolding for developments – allowing for progressive build stages without constant dismantling or re-hire.
Our structures support bricklayers, roofers, builders and decorators at each phase. We provide internal lifts, loading bays and access platforms where needed, saving you time and co-ordination headaches.
We provide scaffolding services throughout Dorset and surrounding local areas. Our key service areas include; Bournemouth, Poole, Christchurch, Dorchester, Weymouth, Wimborne, Ferndown and Verwood. We’re also happy to discuss projects further afield on request.
Yes. We provide scaffolding for residential projects such as chimney repairs, loft conversions and home renovations, as well as projects like large commercial buildings, including new builds, roof replacements and public-facing structures. No job is too big or too small for RV Roofing and Building.
All members of our scaffolding team are fully qualified, receive ongoing health and safety training and follow all UK regulations. We also carry full public liability insurance and all scaffolding erected is compliant with Work at Height Regulations 2005 and related health and safety legislation.
We offer a comprehensive local scaffolding service, including:
Every setup is/can be tailored to the demands of your specific project.
Our temporary roof scaffolding offers vital weather protection for exposed buildings or ongoing roof work. These modular structures help prevent water damage and delays, particularly useful for roof replacements, loft conversions and open-roof repairs during the winter months.
Every setup is/can be tailored to the demands of your specific project.
Health and safety is central to everything we do. Before starting any job, we carry out site-specific risk assessments and method statements (RAMS). All platforms include guardrails, toe boards, and fall prevention systems as standard. Our scaffolders wear full PPE and follow strict procedures to protect clients, workers and the public.
We also implement clear signs, secure barriers and shrapnel nets on high-traffic sites or public-facing projects.
This depends on the size and complexity of the project. For small domestic jobs like chimney repairs or gutter access, scaffold erection can often be completed within a day. Larger or multi-level structures may require multiple days. Once the work is complete - dismantling is arranged promptly and carried out safely with full site clearance.
We regularly supply chimney access scaffolding, which provides safe and secure working space for repairs, lead flashing work, repointing, or even full chimney removals. Our team ensures all platforms are properly supported without damaging roof tiles or existing materials.
Ladders are only suitable for very short-term access. Scaffolding offers a stable, spacious platform with far less risk of falls or tool drops. For anything beyond a quick inspection, scaffold towers are strongly recommended, especially for gutter replacements, soffit repairs, or long roofline runs.
If your scaffolding will be placed on a public pavement, road, or walkway, a permit may be required from your local council. Don’t worry we can advise you on whether one is needed and help you apply for any necessary licences before starting the job.
For larger or ongoing builds such as multi-storey extensions or long-term commercial works, we provide bespoke scaffold designs. These can include loading bays, stair towers and progressive builds - that evolve with the project. We’re also experienced in co-ordinating with various contractors and builders throughout each phase.
