Do you need scaffolding to fit a chimney cowl?
You don’t always need scaffolding. For many single-storey or easily accessible roofs, a ladder and roof-access method might do the trick.
However, for taller properties or difficult to reach roofs, scaffolding is needed.
Tip: Make sure to ask your fitter ahead of time whether scaffolding is needed and whether the costs will be included in their quote.
