Superior Scaffold at the University of Pennsylvania, Market & 34th

July 25, 2012

University of Pennsylvania (U of P) is caulking and waterproofing the façade of their building at 3400 Walnut, (Market & 34th) Pennsylvania, PA 19104. Superior Scaffold provided an intricate sidewalk canopy (sidewalk shed), with overhead protection, 2 blocks long that would allow construction work to go on above while keeping the businesses open underneath. Superior also provided two suspended scaffolds (swings, swing-stage) to allow crews greater access to all areas of the façade. U of P turned to Superior because of the confidence they have for them to handle the safety requirements and guidelines set up by the city, state, and the university. Superior...

Adding Graphics, Banners, and Advertisements to your Scaffolding Project

January 4, 2012

by Superior Scaffold

A capacity crowd of 46,967 braved temperatures in the 30s and intermittent snow flurries to see the visiting New York Rangers edge the Flyers 3-2, when the NHL and Bridgestone Winter Classic came to Citizen's Bank Park, home of baseball's Philadelphia Phillies. But little did the capacity crowd know what it took to get that ice onto the ground. Weeks of preparation, hard work, and yes, advertising. Advertising? Yep. All over the place. And it's a brilliant way to cover up scaffolding that might be necessary for the "behind the curtain" workings of an event like this. If you recall, Superior Scaffold wrapped the...

Independence Hall Update – 10.4.11

October 4, 2011

by Superior Scaffold

Well, things are surely coming along at the Independence Hall Tower. Crews have really done a terrific job getting the spire repainted, the ball and weather vane re-guilded, the roof flashing in place. It's looks great. They have even taken most of the decorative urns down to have them repainted as well. I saw it with my own eyes. It's been a good 6 months since I was last up on the scaffold. I do have photos and will post them up tomorrow. We got to see inside the bell housing as well. They have put new metal...

Getting Press for our company Part 4 – Success story #2 – The Cover of Access Lift & Handlers Magazine.

August 22, 2011

by Superior Scaffold

It’s crazy just how the world works sometime. We had just gotten our stuff to Vince at SA Magazine and the article hadn’t even come out yet when someone in our office remembered being contacted by Lindsey Anderson over at Access Lift & Handlers Magazine (part of KHL group). Again, we turned her name over the Erik who told her about the work we were doing over at Independence Hall. She was excited when she saw the images. She even thought that we would get the cover shot of the magazine. Yeah! So, we went back to the press release and...

How we got Press for our Company – Part 3 (Success)

August 9, 2011

by Superior Scaffold

Everyone will tell you, that in business you need a bit of luck once in a while – and this was no different. We had everything together and ready to go but who would we get it to? And as bit of luck would have it, while going through our contacts, we remembered an email we had gotten from Vince Brennan, the editor at Scaffold Industry Magazine a few months prior, asking what we had going on. Bam. We gave Erik Highland, our photographer and marketing guy, Vince’s name and number and said – “have it him.”, which he obviously did,...

Getting Press for our Company Part 2 (writing a press release and searching contacts)

August 8, 2011

by Superior Scaffold

Okay – we’ve made our plan. We’ve picked the project that would be great for all of America to talk about (the renovation of Independence Hall) and we’ve gotten some fantastic photos of both phases of the job site. Now what? How do we get press for the scaffold work we’ve done? We started by compiling a list of contacts that we have had over the years. Some are still valid and some are not – but we look at them as possible leads to run a story on us. While we are culling through our possible contacts we write a press...
