This cost of $20 per square meter ($1.8 per square foot) is a very rough calculation, and can only be used to calculate the cost of renting a scaffolding for a “small” project.
This means 15 square meters, and if you divide this by $300, you come to $20 per square meter, or $1.8 per square foot. For example, if you have a wall which is 30 feet (10 meters wide), when you will need to triple the amount of scaffolding required, and thus your project will go to about $900 per month.īased on these rough calculations, we come up with a unit which is 3 meters wide, and 5 meters high. If you need to repair an entire wall, then you need to calculate the amount of units that will be required to reach the whole length of the wall. Repairing a Wall with Scaffolding Example Rental Prices What is important to remember is that this $300 is for a single unit, which will cover only 7-10 feet of lateral length. And more platforms and more bracing may be necessary depending on the size of your project. With these additions which may or may not be required, you may increase your cost to $260 to $300 per month. Platforms will cost an additional $20 per month, Guardrails can cost approximately $40 per month.Īdditionally, in some cases installing a stairwell may prove to be much safer, but it will come at an additional cost. Examples include additional platforms, guardrails, and more. Unfortunately, there are always additional add-ons that need to be purchased. The exact cost will vary depending on your exact location. Therefore, for a basic tower, which will reach about 5 meters (15 feet), and provided you live in close proximity to the rental company, the rental should cost about $200 per month. Thus, it may be worthwhile to keep the scaffolding for a bit longer to ensure the entire task and other similar tasks get completed rather than have to rent scaffolding another time and pay the transportation again. And this cost will vary depending on the scaffolding supplier. If you live close to the rental location, the cost may be minimal to have the scaffolding dropped off and picked-up, but if you live further than 50 miles (80km) from the rental company, transportation costs may add up.Ī drop-off less than 7 miles (10km) may cost a total of $50 for transportation, but a dropoff location further than 50 miles may cost 120-150$. Transportation CostĪlong with the cost, you also need to factor in the transportation cost. Some companies may allow day-rentals, but many companies have certain minimums, and thus often a week or month rental is the minimum. These scaffoldings will cover a lateral length of about 7-10 feet (2-3 meters) depending on the exact scaffolding model. This cost will vary significantly depending on the region you live in, but this will get you scaffolding which will allow you to reach many elevated areas. Single Tower Scaffolding Rental CostĪ single tower that can reach 3 or 5 meters (9 or 15 feet), can be rented for around 60-80$ per week, or 100-140$ per month. Many companies will rent out small assemblies, which will often be sufficient to get many tasks around a home done.
With these two questions answered, it is much easier to get an estimation of how much scaffolding is required and what the cost will be.
