Competent-Person Oversight
Independent assessment by certified inspectors supports safer access decisions and better site control.
Scaffold Inspection Service
Scaffold Inspection
Before use. During use. After any event that changes risk.
Scaffold collapses are among the leading causes of fatal accidents on construction and maintenance sites in
India.
Independent scaffold inspection by a competent person is required before first use, at regular intervals
during use,
and following any event that may have affected the scaffold's integrity.
Uniquo's certified scaffold inspectors conduct thorough assessments and issue colour-coded scaffold tags and formal inspection reports.
Why Inspection Matters
Scaffold safety depends on condition, configuration, and continuous review.
Temporary access systems can become unsafe through weather exposure, unauthorised modification, loading changes, or impact damage. Inspection must be repeated at the right trigger points, not just at erection.
Event-Based Revalidation
Weather, impact, or alteration can change scaffold stability and must trigger immediate reassessment.
Documented Compliance
Reports, tags, and handover records create a clear trace of safe-use status for the scaffold in service.
Types of Scaffolds We Inspect
06 Systems
Inspection coverage across traditional, modular, suspended, and temporary support systems.

Independent tied scaffolds built from tube-and-fitting systems.
System Scaffolds
Ringlock, Kwikstage, and Cuplock scaffold systems.
Suspended Scaffolds
Swing stages and suspended work platforms.
Cantilever and Spur
Special-condition scaffold arrangements requiring added stability review.
Mobile Towers

Shoring and Falsework
Temporary support systems used during structural or concrete operations.
Inspection Triggers
Scaffold inspection is required at first use, through continued use, and after events that affect
integrity.
Inspection Triggers
When scaffold inspection must be repeated and documented.
Before First Use
After erection and before the scaffold is handed over for operational use.
Every 7 Days
Routine interval inspection during continued use.
After Adverse Weather
Following high winds, rain, frost, or other weather exposure that may affect stability.
After Accidental Impact
Any collision, loading incident, or unplanned disturbance to the scaffold structure.
After Modifications
Following alteration, extension, partial dismantling, or any change to the scaffold arrangement.
Deliverables
Clear outputs that help site teams act immediately.
