Easy Job!

The simplest scaffold for a commercial building I've seen!

Thought it might be "Health and Safety gone mad" (no ladders) , but it looks like from the sign "Italian Decor" that the facade (which appears to be a restaurant) is being replastered Italian style.

Still, are these jobs the bread and butter most of the time or bordering on too small to be really profitable?

Hi Trevor, built many jobs of comparable size and smaller. Doesn't matter if a job like this is profitable or not, it's all about keeping the client happy, his next job could be a block of flats somewhere. The ladder is another issue, I wouldn't include a ladder from the pavement on any job, too many issues with public access. The bracing is another issue, you just can't leave bracing like that in place on a street job, plan brace and ties would sort that out. Sometimes a job this size can create more problems and issues than a far larger job.

The corner outside leg looks quite close to the edge of the steps

The pic was taken in Harrogate in North Yorkshire. The owners probably wouldnt have batted an eyelid.
