W M Scaffold in short

W M Scaffold is a scaffolding listing at the Dawley Bank workshops in Telford, reachable on a live mobile number, with no website of its own behind the name [1]. Google reviews give W M Scaffold 4.6, the second-highest mark in this set [1]. Our verdict is that the customer signal is strong while the paperwork is not, which is why it sits mid-table.

What counts against it is the company position: a Gazette notice records the winding-up of a company of the same name trading from the same workshops, so the current trading entity is unclear [2]. Insurance, pricing and qualifications are all unpublished [2]. That open question over the trading entity is what holds it back below the documented firms.

Our verdict

Our judgement: W M Scaffold pairs strong customer evidence with a live phone line, which counts in its favour for standard jobs [1]. What counts against it is paperwork: the Gazette winding-up record at the same address means the current trading entity is unclear, and insurance, pricing and qualifications are all unpublished [2].

Industry qualifications

Can't be sourced. We looked at the issuing registers, the business's own website and platforms such as Checkatrade and Which? Trusted Traders and found no scheme membership or registration to record.

Strengths

  • You get the second-highest review score in this set: 4.6 from 32 Google reviews, seen 4 September 2026 [1].

  • The name and Dawley Bank Workshops address match a Gazette record for a WM Scaffold Ltd at the same workshops, which gives the identity a second anchor even as it raises the entity question [2].

Limitations

  • The company position needs care: a 2024 Gazette notice records the voluntary winding-up of a WM Scaffold Ltd trading from the same Dawley Bank workshops [2], while the Google listing stays live with 32 reviews [2].

  • No insurance, pricing or qualification detail is published, and there is no website [2].

Questions about W M Scaffold

Is W M Scaffold any good?

The reviews say yes while the paperwork says be careful: Google reviews give 4.6 across thirty-two ratings, the second-highest mark in the set [1]. A Gazette winding-up notice sits against a company of the same name at the same workshops, so the trading entity is unclear [2]. Read the full page, then confirm exactly who you are dealing with.

Is W M Scaffold CISRS registered?

Industry qualifications cannot be sourced for W M Scaffold from the registers, a website or the platforms checked. There is no website behind the name, only the live listing [1]. Ask for the card details of the crew doing your job and confirm them through the scheme. Get the answer in writing.

What does W M Scaffold charge?

It publishes no prices, rates, quote terms or VAT position anywhere [1]. That means your quote does the talking: send the full job list with access details and ask for an itemised fixed quote. Confirm what the price covers before you agree anything.

Where does W M Scaffold work?

The listing sits at the Dawley Bank workshops in Telford, with a live mobile contact number [1]. There is no website, so the phone line is the whole route in. Telford postcodes sit inside its patch. Send your postcode with the job details to confirm you are covered.

How is W M Scaffold ranked?

It ranks sixth of the eight scaffolders in our September round, carried there chiefly by its strong review signal. The open entity question with unpublished cover and qualifications holds it below the documented firms. Read the full review, then confirm the business details.
