Currie is on the south-west edge of Edinburgh, on the A70 Lanark Road between Juniper Green and Balerno, with the Water of Leith running below it. The old village is stone-built, and around it are estates of post-war family homes. Heriot-Watt University’s campus at Riccarton is next door.
Most of what we scaffold here is domestic — roofs, chimneys, dormers and extensions — along with access for schools, shops and business premises. Each scaffold is designed around the property and inspected while it stands.

Currie FAQs
Scaffolding in Currie: your questions
The questions we’re asked most often by customers in Currie.
-
Do I need a permit for scaffolding on the pavement in Currie?
If any part of the scaffold has to stand on a public road or pavement, yes. In Currie the roads authority is the City of Edinburgh Council, and under the Roads (Scotland) Act 1984 scaffolding on a public road needs its permission. A scaffold that stands entirely within your own boundary doesn’t. Mention it when you enquire so it can be allowed for in the programme.
-
How much does scaffolding cost in Currie?
There is no standard price. It depends on the height and length of the scaffold, how long it needs to stand and how easy the property is to reach. Tell us what you’re having done and we’ll come back with a clear, competitive price with no hidden costs, arranging a site visit if one is needed.
-
Can you scaffold a house on a slope?
Yes. Sloping sites are common in Currie, where many homes sit above the Water of Leith. We design the base of the scaffold around the ground it stands on, so the platform is level and stable.
-
How soon can you put up scaffolding in Currie?
It depends on the job and how busy we are, so the best thing is to ask. We travel to Currie from our yard in Airth via the M9 and the Edinburgh bypass. Tell us in the enquiry form whether the work is urgent or planned for the coming weeks, and we’ll confirm what we can do.
-
Do you cover Balerno, Juniper Green and Colinton?
Yes. As well as Currie, we cover Balerno, Juniper Green and Colinton and the surrounding area. If you’re not sure whether we cover your location, get in touch — we may still be able to help.
