Finance Built for Scaffolders, by

Scaffolders deserve better finance solutions. We’re here to make that happen. Fast. Simple. Built for the industry.

Our Story: We Saw the Problem.We Built the Solution.

For too long, scaffolding contractors were stuck with finance that didn’t fit. Materials were hard to fund. Trucks took too long. VAT and tax loans? Almost impossible without jumping through hoops.

We saw it firsthand and decided to fix it.

Scaffold Finance was built to give scaffolding contractors fast, flexible funding that actually works the way you run your business.

People

We Saw Scaffolders Being Overlooked. So, We Did Something About It.

Abandoned
For years, scaffolders were left behind by finance providers. While businesses could easily get funding for vehicles and machinery, scaffolding materials were a different story.
SchoolMany scaffolders didn’t even realise they could finance their materials. No one was educating them otherwise. That needed to change.
Possibility
We started showing scaffolders what was actually possible. That funding scaffolding materials, trucks, and even tax bills wasn’t just for “big firms.”

From Frustration to Innovation.

Our MD, Carl, has spent over 12 years arranging finance for scaffolders and saw the same problems over and over:

Struggle
Scaffolding companies struggling with late payers and therefore cash flow.
Molecule
Generic brokers ignoring scaffolders because they didn’t fit the “standard” model.
Capital
Scaffolders forced to drain their savings just to keep moving forward.

Then came the turning point.

We launched Scaffold Finance to give scaffolders something they never had before: a finance partner that actually understands their business.
People icon
Over the past 12+ years, Carl has helped hundreds of scaffolding companies get the funding they need. Securing finance for scaffolding materials, scaffolding trucks, VAT loans, even drones and a few caravans.
Focus
The result? Faster deals, better terms, and funding that actually fits the scaffolding trade.

Built from Experience.Driven by Scaffolders.

Our journey didn’t happen overnight. It’s been over a decade of listening to scaffolders, understanding the challenges they face, and building finance solutions that actually work for them. Here’s how we got here and where we’re heading.

Why It Matters.

Competencies
Scaffolding is a specialist trade, and it deserves specialist finance. It’s not like other industries. Your materials are expensive, your jobs move fast, and cashflow can get squeezed. Standard finance just doesn’t cut it.
Understanding
We understand your challenges and we know what it takes to keep your business moving. Whether it’s juggling VAT bills, chasing payments, or needing new gear on site tomorrow, we’ve seen it all. And we’re here to help you stay ahead.
Helmet
At Scaffold Finance, every solution is built around the real needs of scaffolders. From £5k scaffold start kits to £50k trucks, we’ll tailor the deal to your work, your timings, and your goals.
