I sort of assume that scaffolding for a long-term project like #Bristol #TempleMeads this isn't really hired, more likely its owned outright by the project. But I assume that they try to re-sell it after they've finished, so that probably works out similarly costed in the end anyway.
I'm very impressed by the skill of the scaffolders themselves. It's astonishing what they can produce as a 'temporary' roof!
