‘Scuse me while I kiss the sky – Scaffolding the New Dover High School Auditorium

July 31, 2013

Jimi Hendrix might have been thinking of other things when he wrote those lyrics but if he was around today in the new Dover High School auditorium (Dover, DE) he’d be singing about Superior Scaffold’s ability to get crews up to the ceilings of very tall structures, just like this state-of-the-art hall. And that’s just what we did on this very cool job. Crews needed a way to get to very top of the new auditorium so Superior devised a system scaffold platform that was able to span the entire length and width of the space from the stage across the...

Scaffolding the Cancer Treatment Center of America, Philadelphia, PA

December 20, 2012

by Superior Scaffold

Cancer Treatment Centers of America® (CTCA) at Eastern Regional Medical Center (Eastern), a state-of-the-art cancer hospital in Philadelphia, has been offering patients integrated, patient-centered cancer care since 2005. When they needed the best multi-trade scaffold to complete their renovation they called Superior Scaffold. Not only did they need to get glazers, carpenters, painters and inspectors access to the exterior of the structure but they needed to wrap the top half of the building with weather protection so they could work through the winter elements. It’s a pretty common practice for the cold months. It really helps keep the elements out while keeping a...

by Superior Scaffold

Okay – now I know you are probably asking yourself why on earth are we blogging about this? And you have a point - but when you see the scope of the renovation that Ray Starzman and Chase Building Group undertook for this exterior re-invention, you will understand. Just look at the pictures. Not only did Superior Scaffold provide the many system scaffolds all around the residence, but they also did an entire enclosure on the house while the work was going on! This kept the debris trapped and the workers very happy during the cold winter months. It also provided...
