“We appointed M8 Scaffolding for a project at Sabhal Mòr Ostaig on the Isle of Skye, involving scaffold erection, weekly inspections, alterations, and dismantling in harsh marine conditions. Their location, availability, and competitive pricing made them the ideal choice.
Despite the challenges posed by the remote site and unpredictable weather, M8 delivered safe, reliable, and responsive service throughout.
Their professionalism and adaptability were key to the project’s success, and we wouldn’t hesitate to recommend them for similar works.”
Ryan Ward
Commercial Manager
MPMH Construction Ltd
“We recently worked with Stephen and the team at M8 Scaffold Group on a technically demanding scaffold erection over a live working area to facilitate the installation of structural steelwork. The professionalism and skill demonstrated by their crew were outstanding throughout the project.
Despite the complexity of the site, the scaffold was erected safely and efficiently, with minimal disruption to ongoing operations. The team’s attention to detail and commitment to safety were evident at every stage. Communication was clear and proactive, especially during the night-shift erection phase, where logistical challenges were handled with flexibility and transparency.
I was particularly impressed by the responsiveness of the team—even during informal encounters, their pride in the work and enthusiasm for the project were clear. Their ability to adapt to site conditions and maintain high standards makes them a reliable partner for complex scaffolding requirements.
I look forward to future collaborations and would confidently recommend them to clients and colleagues alike.”

“I used M8 Scaffolding on my house renovation which has been derelict for many years. I wanted it to be an environmental friendly build on a budget.
I spoke to a number of companies and what drew me to M8 wasn’t the cheapest price (which they weren’t) but their ability to understand what I wanted to achieve and the passion I have for this house. They worked with me to be flexible to let my joiners build what they need and be flexible to make changed working reason free of charge.
What they have done has made such a wonderful difference to me and the stress they took away.
I have already recommended to a lot of local people in Oban.”
