by Kriss Nash, from the Community

This scaffold inspection report template helps site managers and inspectors assess scaffold safety and compliance. It covers base stability, geometry, platform condition, bracing, tubes and fittings, safe access and ladders, load distribution, tie patterns, and edge protection including guard rails and toe boards. It also prompts Scafftag checks and proper sign-off by an authorised person. Use it to document findings and ensure scaffolds are erected and maintained for their intended use.

Temporary Works Scaffolding Inspection Checklist
Use this temporary works scaffolding inspection template to verify compliance and site safety. The checklist guides inspectors through design and handover documents, tie systems and testing, foundations and baseplates, scaffold geometry, facade and ledger bracing, access and egress, working platforms and boards, tubes and fittings, loading and material storage, and guardrails, toe boards, and brick guards. Record findings, note non conformances, and assign actions to ensure scaffolds are erected, used, and maintained safely throughout the project.

Scaffolding Safety Inspection Checklist
This scaffolding safety inspection checklist helps verify that a newly installed scaffold is safe for use. Capture general details, confirm a solid base and correct base plates and sole plates, and check that height and guardrails meet regulatory requirements. Inspect geometry, platforms, and bracing, ensure tubes and fittings are in good condition and properly tightened, and confirm safe access with correctly positioned ladders. Review load capacity, even distribution of materials, and adequate ties. Verify guard rails and toe boards, and ensure a current scaffold tag is displayed and completed. Record issues, add photos, and document recommendations to maintain site safety and compliance.
