Scaffolding Company Debt Recovery — UK Specialists
Scaffolding companies face unique cash flow challenges. Your materials are on-site with the client — physically held hostage while they delay payment. Overextended hire periods, disputed labour charges and clients who simply refuse to pay final invoices are all too common in this sector.
Hay's Collections provides specialist debt recovery for scaffolding contractors and scaffold hire companies across the UK. We pursue unpaid hire invoices, erect and dismantle fees, design costs and extended hire charges — recovering the money you're rightfully owed.
Our No Collection, No Commission model means there is zero financial risk. We charge 15% only on money actually recovered.
In addition to our core No Collection, No Commission debt recovery service, we provide a comprehensive range of ancillary services — including debtor tracing, credit checks, legal escalation, statutory demands and enforcement support — ensuring your case receives the full specialist attention it deserves.
Common Problems
Debt Recovery Challenges in the Scaffolding Sector
Extended Hire Refusal
Clients refuse to pay extended hire beyond the original contract period despite scaffolding remaining on-site.
Scaffold Damage Disputes
Clients claim scaffolding damage to offset against hire invoices. We challenge unjustified damage deductions.
Main Contractor Delays
Main contractors hold payment to scaffolding subcontractors as leverage. We break through this.
Disputed Labour Rates
Labour charges for erection and dismantling are disputed post-completion. We enforce the contractual rate.
Insolvency of Client
When a client becomes insolvent with your equipment on-site, swift action is essential to recover both equipment and debt.
Design Fee Recovery
Scaffold design and engineering fees are sometimes disputed or withheld. We pursue these as legitimate charges.
