Our story

From a rented piece of ground in Brecon to our own depot at Three Cocks.

  1. 1995

    Robbie John and Victoria Rodell see a shortfall in the scaffolding and access services in the Breconshire & Radnorshire area, and Brecon Scaffolding is created. We trade from a rented piece of ground at the foot of the Crug in Brecon, and many of those first clients still trade with us today.

  2. 1999

    The business moves to BoxBush Farm, Three Cocks, and owning the premises lets us concentrate on growing. Work spreads into Radnorshire and Monmouthshire, from Ystradgynlais to Abergavenny and Rhayader to Merthyr Tydfil.

  3. 2005

    Mike Wangiel joins the office to help Robbie John with the surveying, estimating and work schedules.

  4. 2007

    We buy half an acre of industrial ground on the Three Cocks Industrial Estate and develop it into a purpose built scaffolding depot and offices.

  5. 2008

    When the credit crunch hits the local market, we expand our operations into Herefordshire and South Wales, covered with ease from our main depot in Three Cocks.

  6. Later

    Scaffolding Services.com is created to bring together Brecon Scaffolding Services, Hereford Scaffolding Services and South Wales Scaffolding Services.
