Overview

Shrink wrap services in Barnet

North London through Barnet, Totteridge and Mill Hill is large detached and semi-detached housing stock, and the work follows it: full-house refurbishments, loft conversions, re-roofing and extensions.

These are jobs where the owners are usually still living there, which changes what an acceptable scaffold cover looks like.

Local focus

Scaffold shrink wrapping and temporary roofsin Barnet

Scaffolding, mostly residential and mostly on occupied houses. That matters more than it sounds. When the client is sleeping under the scaffold, sheeting that flaps all night is not an option, and neither is water finding its way through a lap onto a stripped roof. Temporary roofs over open roof works are a large share of it, along with full encapsulation on longer refurbishments.

Before we quote

How we survey and quote in Barnet

Every Barnet job starts with a survey — on site, or from your photos if that is quicker. We measure it, work out the frame, the film area, the seams and the fixings, and the number you get back is the number you pay.

Pricing

How much does shrink wrapping cost in Barnet?

Size and shape

Priced on the square metres of film that end up on the frame, which follows the profile rather than the footprint.

Framing required

The frame is often more of the job than the film. Complex shapes and awkward access both add crew time.

Film grade

Flame-retardant and heavier gauges cost more per square metre. We specify for the job rather than defaulting.

Travel to Barnet

Set out as its own line so you can see it. Where we can batch Barnet work into an existing run, it comes down.

We do not publish a Barnet rate, because a rate quoted before anyone has seen the job is a guess that gets corrected on your invoice. What you get instead is a fixed price after survey, with removal and disposal included from the start. Most Barnet enquiries are answered the same working day, and photographs are usually enough to get a realistic figure moving.

Common questions

Shrink wrap Barnet FAQs

Do you cover Barnet?

Yes. Barnet is part of our regular coverage and scaffold wrapping is the work we do most of there. On our north London run with Watford and Enfield. Survey inside 48 hours.

How much does shrink wrapping cost in Barnet?

There is no Barnet rate, because the price follows the job rather than the postcode. Size, framing, film grade and access drive it, and travel is set out separately so you can see exactly what you are paying. Send photos and rough dimensions and we will give you a realistic figure the same working day.

Will the wrap keep the noise down for the residents?

Considerably. Flapping sheeting is the single biggest source of complaint on an occupied residential scaffold. A welded skin under tension has nothing loose to move, and it is dramatically quieter at night.

Can you give us a fixed price for a Barnet job?

Yes. Every quote is fixed after survey, with removal and disposal included from the start. We do not use provisional sums and we do not add a "subject to access" line.

What other shrink wrapping do you do around Barnet?

All five sectors — marine, scaffolding and temporary roofs, industrial, transportation and aviation. Scaffold shrink wrap is what we are asked for most in Barnet, but the same crews cover the rest.

Are you insured and do you supply RAMS?

Yes. We are fully insured and risk assessments and method statements are supplied as standard on every commercial job, along with film certification at handover.
