Daveron Scaffold is a locally-owned scaffolding firm based at 220 Roydvale Ave, Burnside, Christchurch. Established in 1991, the company has grown from a two-man operation into a team of up to 40 staff serving the Canterbury region, with a focus on reliability, safety and cost-effective project delivery.
The company supplies aluminium mobiles, tube and clip scaffolding, H frames, propping and swinging stages, along with a drive-through hire depot and traffic management services. Work spans commercial, historical/heritage and residential projects, backed by a fleet of 15 trucks including a hook truck that delivers scaffold independently of crews.
Daveron Scaffold is a winner of the Scaffolding, Access and Rigging Jobs of the Year Awards 2021, and is affiliated with SARNZ, Sitesafe, the Canterbury Rebuild Safety Charter, and holds Associate status with Registered Master Builders. Safety is built into the operation through qualified staff holding Certificates of Competence, a dedicated Health and Safety Advisor, and independent weekly scaffold inspections separate from the crews who erect the scaffold.
Based at 220 Roydvale Ave in Burnside, Daveron Scaffold has been part of Christchurch's construction landscape since 1991. What started as a two-man operation has grown into a company employing up to 40 staff, serving commercial, residential and heritage building projects across the Canterbury region.
The company leans heavily on the idea of reliability as its core value, aiming to be on-site at the scheduled time and date, every time. If a project's requirements change, Daveron Scaffold says it has the capacity to add extra people and equipment to a job to keep deadlines on track — backed by the ability to support equipment across more than 200 sites at any point in time.
That scale is supported by a fleet of 15 trucks, including a hook truck that delivers scaffold to sites independently of the crews, with twice the capacity of a standard scaffolding crew truck — a detail that speaks to how the company has structured its logistics to avoid one truck becoming a bottleneck across multiple jobs.
Daveron Scaffold's equipment range covers aluminium mobiles, tube and clip systems, H frames, propping, and swinging stages, along with a drive-through hire depot for equipment and traffic management services for sites that need it. Free quotes are offered upfront, giving clients a clear picture of cost before committing to a project.
Work spans three main categories: commercial projects, historical and heritage buildings, and residential jobs — a spread that requires different approaches, particularly when working on heritage structures where scaffold needs to support a project without compromising the building itself.
Safety runs through several layers of Daveron Scaffold's operation. All scaffold is built to code by staff holding the appropriate Certificate of Competence, and the company has effective risk management systems in place. A dedicated Health and Safety Advisor monitors and controls safety issues and develops the company's health and safety policies and procedures.
On top of that, two people are specifically assigned to weekly scaffold inspections, independent of the crews who erected the scaffold in the first place — a second-check process designed to catch anything that might have been missed during the original build. An administration team handles accurate invoicing, scheduling and lead-time advice, with a point of contact available to respond quickly to queries.
Daveron Scaffold is a winner of the Scaffolding, Access and Rigging Jobs of the Year Awards 2021, and is affiliated with the Scaffolding, Access and Rigging New Zealand (SARNZ) association, Sitesafe, and the Canterbury Rebuild Safety Charter, alongside holding Associate status with Registered Master Builders. NZ Police, among the company's clients, has noted the speed and professionalism shown by Daveron Scaffold's staff.
