Frequently Asked Questions — Scaffolding in Perth
How much does scaffolding hire cost in Australia?
Residential scaffolding hire costs $600–$2,000 per month depending on the area required and height. A full-perimeter scaffold for a double-storey home costs $3,000–$8,000 for a typical 4–6 week project. Erect and dismantle charges are usually included. Mobile scaffold towers rent for $100–$250/day.
When is scaffolding legally required in Australia?
Under the Work Health and Safety Act, scaffolding is required when work is performed at heights over 2m for more than a brief period. All construction work on roofs, fascias, gutters, rendering, and painting above 2m should use scaffolding. Working at heights is the leading cause of fatal workplace injuries in Australia.
What qualifications are needed to erect scaffolding?
Anyone erecting scaffolding over 4m in height must hold a High-Risk Work Licence — Scaffolding (Basic, Intermediate, or Advanced depending on type). This requires completing an accredited course and assessment. Working at heights certification (RIIWHS204E) is required for anyone working on or around scaffolding.
What is the difference between mobile and fixed scaffolding?
Mobile scaffold towers (aluminium frame on wheels) are self-contained and can be repositioned without dismantling — ideal for painting, plastering, and internal maintenance. Fixed (tube-and-coupler or modular system) scaffolding is bolted to the structure and used for larger projects, heavy loads, and complex shapes. Fixed scaffolding requires a licenced scaffolder for erection.
Do I need council permission to erect scaffolding on a footpath?
Yes — scaffolding that occupies a public footpath or road requires a Local Council Works on Road Permit and often traffic management plans. The process takes 1–2 weeks. A pedestrian overhead protection structure (hoarding) must be provided if the footpath remains open during construction. Your scaffolding contractor can usually handle the permit application.
