New Build Scaffolding for Hendy House, Bournemouth

TWK Scaffolding was appointed to deliver comprehensive new build scaffolding solutions for Hendy House, a major student accommodation development located in the heart of Bournemouth town centre. This high-profile construction project will provide modern accommodation for 206 students and represents a significant investment in Bournemouth’s growing education sector.

As a leading provider of scaffolding in Bournemouth, TWK Scaffolding was responsible for delivering both internal and external access solutions throughout the construction programme. The existing building was demolished to make way for the new seven-storey development, requiring carefully planned scaffolding installations to support the build from the early stages through to completion.

Scaffolding in Bournemouth for Large New Build Developments

The external scaffold was designed and erected to provide safe access for multiple trades involved in the construction process. A fully boarded scaffold was installed around the building perimeter, allowing contractors to carry out cladding installation, glazing works, insulation fitting and external finishing works safely and efficiently.

Our experienced scaffolding team worked closely with the principal contractor to ensure all access requirements were met while maintaining strict health and safety standards throughout the project.

As specialists in new build scaffolding, TWK Scaffolding understands the importance of delivering flexible access solutions that adapt to the changing requirements of large construction projects.

Internal Scaffolding and Birdcage Scaffolds

In addition to the external access scaffold, TWK Scaffolding designed and installed hundreds of metres of internal scaffolding throughout the building. Multiple birdcage scaffolds were erected to provide safe working platforms for contractors undertaking ceiling works, mechanical and electrical installations, fire protection systems and internal finishing works.

Several loading bays were strategically positioned around the perimeter of the scaffold to facilitate the safe movement and storage of materials. These loading platforms played a key role in maintaining productivity and ensuring materials could be delivered to the required working levels efficiently.

Managing Scaffolding in Bournemouth Town Centre

Due to the project’s town centre location and restricted site footprint, logistics management was a critical aspect of the works. Limited space for deliveries, material storage and vehicle movements required close coordination between TWK Scaffolding and the site management team.

Daily communication and planning meetings ensured the smooth movement of scaffolding materials, cranes, deliveries and construction traffic within the confined site boundaries. This collaborative approach helped minimise disruption while maintaining programme targets.

Our ability to successfully deliver scaffolding projects within busy urban environments makes TWK a trusted choice for scaffolding in Bournemouth, scaffolding in Poole and scaffolding in Christchurch.
