When you’re dealing with structures that need support, you can’t afford to take risks. That’s where we come in. At AMA Scaffolding, we’ve been providing reliable, professional shoring scaffolding services for over 30 years. We understand the importance of getting this right the first time.

When Do You Need Shoring Scaffolding?
You don’t always know when you’ll need it, but when the time comes, you need to act fast. Shoring scaffolding is all about making sure buildings don’t collapse when something changes – and it’s often used as a safety net while repair or renovation work is carried out.
- Supporting a wall or façade during partial demolition
- Propping up a structure damaged by weather or accident
- Reinforcing a building while work takes place on foundations or floors
- Holding up upper floors during internal refurbishments
- Making an unsafe building temporarily stable
- Preparing a site for major renovation or conversion
- Preventing collapse in fire-damaged or weakened structures
- Allowing safe access to parts of a building that need work
- Helping with load distribution during basement digging or underpinning
- Stabilising a neighbouring building while you build next door
How Does Our Shoring Scaffolding Ensure Safety?
Safety remains our primary focus with every Shoring Scaffolding installation.
Our Shoring Scaffolding Safety Compliance
When we say safety is our top priority, we mean it. We follow every regulation going, and then some. All our scaffolding work is carried out in line with UK industry standards, including TG20:21 for tube and fitting scaffolding and SG4:22 for fall prevention. But we don’t stop there.
Every member of our team is trained to CITB standards, and we’re committed to ongoing development. That means regular updates, refreshers, and toolbox talks on the latest safety techniques and equipment. We make sure everyone on site knows what they’re doing and how to do it safely.
We carry out detailed risk assessments before we even start, and we put together a full method statement that’s clear and specific to your site. Our gear is inspected regularly, and we use only quality materials that meet British Standards. From site fencing and warning signs to load checks and secure fixings, we don’t cut corners – ever.
Types of Shoring Scaffolding
There’s no one-size-fits-all when it comes to shoring. Depending on what you’re supporting and why, we’ll use a specific setup. Our team will help you figure out which one is right for your project.
- Dead Shoring – This is used to support vertical loads, like walls or beams. You’ll usually see this when internal walls are being altered, or when parts of a structure need to be held up during work.
- Raking Shoring – You’ll recognise this from the angled beams running from the ground up to the wall. It’s used when external walls need support from the outside, especially during demolitions or following damage.
- Flying Shoring – A bit more technical, this is when horizontal supports span across two parallel walls that both need support. You’ll see this in terraced buildings where a shared wall is being worked on.
Each system we build is reinforced and tested to make sure it does the job. And we don’t just install it and leave – we monitor it and adjust if needed throughout the course of your project.
What Are the Benefits of Shoring Scaffolding?
It’s not just about holding something up – it’s about making your site safer and your work smoother. With proper shoring in place, you reduce risk, avoid delays, and keep your project on track.
