Scaffolding - render residue

[Lincolnshire Ian]

Hi 

We are dismantling the scaffolding next week and are a little worried that we will be charged a "cleaning free". This hasn't been mentioned anywhere in our agreement with the scaffolding company, but our renderers have left a residue on many of the boards. We will do our best to clean the boards ourselves, but we don't want to get too vigorous and splash our lovely new render. 

If I get a fee, fair everything, but just wondering whether anyone else has encountered this. 

Thanks

No.  Unless there is an inch of render on the boards.  A lot of stuff comes off when they are flipped over.

Do NOT clean the boards off near your new render!!

 

Leave the Scaff guys take them down and they’ll just bang off the excess as they go. It’s another day in the office for them, so chill out
