Are you tackling a DIY home improvement project that requires working at height? Whether you’re painting a high wall, repairing a roof, or installing light fixtures, a scaffold can be an invaluable tool. Here at Next Level Scaffolding we understand that professional scaffolding can be costly, and some small DIY home projects may not even need it. Needing scaffolding in Northland? We aim to service our community, so have put together a fool proof, step by step process on how you can achieve your own safe and secure scaffolding solution at home, with minimal costs!
Erecting a scaffold might seem like a daunting task, but with the right approach and safety precautions, you can set up a sturdy and reliable platform for your work.
Before you start, make sure you have all the necessary materials and tools:
Select a flat, stable area for your scaffold. It should be level and able to support the weight of the scaffold and any additional loads (workers, tools, materials). Clear the area of any debris or obstacles that could affect stability.
Once your project is complete, carefully disassemble the scaffold in the reverse order of assembly. Ensure that all components are stored properly for future use.
Erecting a simple scaffold for DIY projects can greatly enhance your ability to work safely and efficiently at heights. By following these steps and adhering to safety guidelines, you can set up a reliable platform for your home improvement tasks. Remember, safety always comes first, so take your time and double-check every step. Happy DIYing!
It is no secret that our culture here in New Zealand holds a staunch ‘she’ll be right’ attitude when it comes to our DIY standards. It is the very reason we as a nation can navigate our own way around most things ourselves, and proudly. When it comes to safety however, doing the right thing is always the best way to go.
The use of professional scaffolding when tackling our own projects at home is just as important as the use of scaffolding for larger or commercial jobs. No matter the size, ensuring you are safe when working at heights is essential.
When you are working at heights, things can become more difficult and complicated when you find yourself lacking in the right equipment around you.

With summer drawing to an end here in Northland, now is a crucial time to get roof repairs, exterior painting and maintenance sorted before the wet weather kicks in.
At Next Level Scaffolding, we choose to work with Tube and Clip scaffolding. It is commonly called ‘Tube and Coupler” scaffold, it is extremely versatile and widely used across many construction sites due to the unlimited structural possibilities. Many other scaffolding types are not able to offer this much versatility, which is why tube and clip is our choice of scaffold. This choice of scaffold however comes with a labour-intensive cost, due to its ability for precision and capacity to be applied to more technical builds.
Edge protection is a cost effective scaffolding solution we offer our roofers, roofing companies and painters who are in need of scaffold for projects such as new roof replacements, roof maintenance, exterior painting and cleaning.
