With our unparalleled industry insight, it’s clear to us why so many people are now buying their scaffolding as opposed to hiring, but we want to take the time to help you make an informed decision. There are clear and promising benefits for buying scaffolding, so let’s dive deep!
The Benefits of Buying Scaffolding
Cost effective
If you have multiple or ongoing projects, buying scaffolding as opposed to hiring often proves to be the most cost-effective choice. Purchasing scaffolding offers you the convenience of using the same equipment for each project you commence, thereby reducing the costs you would otherwise have spent on individual hire fees.
Quality Control
By purchasing scaffolding, you can 100% guarantee the quality. By individually picking out each item when purchasing your scaffolding, you can ensure that your scaffolding is of the highest quality. This is very different to relying on an external company and hoping that they keep up with quality testing. When purchasing scaffolding, you will also have full control over the maintenance and storage, and so can ensure high-quality for longer for your scaffolding equipment.
Cutting Out the Middleman
When you buy scaffolding, you will no longer be beholden to external companies and their time schedules. Purchasing scaffolding offers you and your company the flexibility to use it whenever you need to. You won’t be required to wait for another company to get back to you on their availability, nor will you have to spend time liaising to dismantle the scaffolding – you can handle everything in-house.
Business Investment
When buying scaffolding, you will add to and improve your company’s asset portfolio, which can boost your business’s credit rating and borrowing power. Additionally, purchasing scaffolding enhances your professional reputation, streamlines projects, and showcases reliability to clients and partners.
Peace of Mind
When buying scaffolding, you benefit from peace of mind that your scaffolding is of the highest quality, available when required, and installation is as hassle-free and cost-effective as possible.
Regardless of whether you’re working on a quick turnaround schedule or a long-term project, buying scaffolding makes it easier to keep your project on schedule.
Sustainability Focused
In the current climate, each company must play their part in being as environmentally friendly as possible. When purchasing scaffolding, it offers you the unique chance to select a supplier who is environmentally focused. There are a few scaffolding suppliers who are careful to source as many eco-friendly products as possible – KMS Scaffolding Sales Ltd is one of them. By choosing us for your scaffolding purchase, you are also doing your bit in reducing your company’s environmental impact.
When to Consider Hiring Scaffolding
As shown in this blog, buying scaffolding has a range of benefits; however, there are scenarios where hiring scaffolding may be the more practical choice. For instance, if you are only undertaking one project that requires scaffolding, then hiring scaffolding would be the most cost-effective choice. Additionally, an important factor to consider would be storage. If you only have limited space for storage, then hiring scaffolding could be the right choice for you.
If you are considering hiring scaffolding, then our sister company KMS Scaffolding Ltd, offers reliable and competitively priced scaffolding hire services for domestic and commercial clients. They provide a range of flexible hire options, guaranteeing that you get the scaffolding you require, without the commitment of ownership.
