Someone searching for a scaffolder is usually a builder, roofer or painter working to a job schedule, not browsing for ideas. Your website’s job is to show, fast, that you are a real, certified operator who can turn up on the date they need. We build it first, from what is already public about you, and then give it to you. It costs nothing to have and nothing to keep.
“Scaffold hire [town]”, “scaffolding company near me”: the person searching is almost always working against a build programme, where a delay in scaffolding delays everyone behind it. They want to know two things fast — can you actually do this job legally, and can you be there on time.
That changes what the website is for. It is there so that in the first few seconds, someone sees your certification, the kind of jobs you cover, and a phone number that gets answered — not a design award.
Erecting and altering scaffolding above the height where a fall could cause serious injury requires a Certificate of Competence under the scaffolding certification scheme WorkSafe oversees. It is not optional for that kind of work, and it is not a marketing claim.
Most people hiring a scaffolder for a one-off job have no way to tell a certified operator from someone who is not. Naming your certification on your own website, rather than leaving people to take your word for it, removes that doubt before they ever call.
Nothing. We build the page from what is already public about your business and send you the link. If you want it, we put it live and you pay us nothing for it. There is no card, no trial, and no fee that starts later. It sits at an address of ours, not your own domain name, and it carries one line at the bottom saying we built it.
It asks one thing of you. Once a year we send one message asking whether the details are still right, and two reminders over the month after it. If we cannot reach you, the page comes down — a page with your name and a wrong phone number on it is worse for you than no page at all. It also comes down when you ask, for any reason or none, within five New Zealand working days at the latest, and we will not ask you why.
The only thing you can pay for is changes made for you. You message us a new price, new hours, a holiday closure or a photo of the new van, and we make the change, within five New Zealand working days at the latest. That is NZ$299 for the year, and it includes your own domain name registered in your business name and email on it. No monthly fee, no minimum term, and it does not renew itself. No GST is added. The full terms are here.
If somebody else would suit you better — and for plenty of scaffolders they would — we have listed every option we could find, with the price each company publishes on its own site: who should build your website.
We build the first version of your page from your Google Business Profile, your Facebook page, and anything else already public about your business, then send you the link. You look at it before anything happens. If you do not want it we take it down, you owe nothing, and we will not contact you about it again.
If you have not claimed your Google Business Profile yet, It matters even more for a scaffolder than for most trades, because a builder choosing between two unfamiliar companies is really asking one question — is this one actually certified to do the job — and most scaffolding websites never answer it. The walkthrough is here: how to claim your Google Business Profile in New Zealand.
Being straight with you: we build and host the website, not your Google Business Profile, because that needs a verified New Zealand address and we are not in New Zealand. The walkthrough above covers the whole process yourself; it takes about twenty minutes and it is free.
Yes. Erecting or altering scaffolding above the certification threshold requires it under the scheme WorkSafe oversees. Naming it, rather than leaving people to take your word for it, is one of the fastest ways to look legitimate to a builder who has never used you before.
Your certification, the towns and job types you cover (residential, commercial, events), a phone number that gets answered, and how quickly you can typically get on site.
Yes. Scaffolding, access and rigging sit close enough together in how builders search and hire that the same page structure works for all of them.
For a lot of trades, a Facebook page covers most of what people need day to day. What it does not do well is show up when someone searches your trade and town on Google rather than on Facebook, and it can look less permanent to someone checking you out before they call. We wrote the comparison up properly here: Facebook page or website, for a New Zealand trade business. If you are not showing up in a search at all — not even for your own business name — here is why, in the order it usually happens.
Send us your business name and the town. We will tell you honestly whether we can build one, and if we can, we email you the link to look at. There is nothing to pay at any point for the page itself.
Not a scaffolder? See the same approach for plumbers, electricians, builders, roofers, landscapers, auto electricians, painters, plasterers, fencing contractors, gardeners and lawn care businesses, handyman businesses, tilers, concreters, gutter cleaning businesses, pest control businesses, locksmiths and glaziers.
Based in a main centre? See the same approach for businesses in Auckland, Wellington, Christchurch and Hamilton, or see every trade and city.
Send us your business name and the town. We will tell you honestly whether we can build one — this is one person, so we cannot build for everyone who asks. Either way there is nothing to pay.
