Hello all,
Me and my business partner started our scaff company about 18 months ago and things are going strong. Already turnover £1m+. One problem is we have an ever increasing requirement for scaffold design drawings to be completed for us.
We have used a couple of companies and one is better than the other but both are seriously expensive and punishing margins on our jobs where designs are needed.
Ideally we want to bring someone in house full time to do these for us as we grow as we currently spend well above what it would cost to employ someone in house but I have no idea where to start looking for someone and what qualifications should be required.
Can anyone advise where I should start looking for a qualified scaff designer?
Also because of some large orders that have landed we need to buy a serious amount of tube again but new tube is too expensive in our eyes and second hand would be ideal. We bought about 700 tons of tube from a failed company when we started and are on the look out for another who may be looking to off load some more?
Cheers
