B-MAT Scaffolding was instructed under a Sanctuary Housing planned maintenance programme to provide
safe access scaffolding to a further property on Hartford Close in Rayleigh, Essex. The scaffold
supported the removal of asbestos-containing fascia boards and the installation of new guttering.
This installation formed part of a coordinated programme of works across multiple properties, requiring
consistency, reliability, and strict adherence to housing association standards. Each property was
assessed individually to ensure the scaffold configuration was appropriate for its layout and access
constraints.
A fully boarded independent scaffold was erected to the required elevations, providing continuous access
along the fascia line. This allowed licensed asbestos contractors to work methodically and safely without
the need for temporary or ladder-based access.
All scaffolding was installed in accordance with TG21 guidance and SG4 safe working at height principles.
Regular inspections were carried out to ensure the scaffold remained safe, stable, and compliant for the
duration of the works.
This Hartford Close project demonstrates B-MAT Scaffolding’s ability to deliver structured, compliant
access solutions that integrate seamlessly into wider housing association maintenance programmes.
