Scaffold Inspection Request Form

Let site teams request a statutory scaffold inspection — the 7-day check, or one after an alteration or bad weather.

Description

A scaffold inspection request form lets a site team book the statutory inspection a scaffold needs before it’s used and at regular intervals after. Under the Work at Height Regulations a scaffold must be checked before first use, at least every seven days, and after anything that could affect its stability — this form gets that booked with a proper record.

It captures the site address, the scaffold reference or its location on site, and the reason for the inspection — a routine seven-day check, a re-inspection after an alteration, or a check following adverse weather. The date it’s needed by lets your inspector prioritize, and contact details keep the site in the loop.

Customize the reasons and fields to match your process, restyle it in your brand colors, and embed it on your site so every inspection is logged and tagged.

Template FAQs

Common questions about the Scaffold Inspection Request Form — what it captures, when to use it, and how to make it your own.

What is a scaffold inspection request form?

It’s a form used to book the statutory inspection a scaffold requires before first use, every seven days, and after any event that might affect stability. It records which scaffold, where it is and why the check is needed, creating a clear trail for your inspection records.

What information does it collect?

The site address, the scaffold reference or location on site, the reason for the inspection as a drop-down, and the date it’s needed by. Site contact, email and phone let your inspector confirm the slot and report back once the check and tag are done.

When is a scaffold inspection required?

Before the scaffold is first used, then at least every seven days while it stands, and again after any alteration or spell of adverse weather that could affect it. Logging each request through the form keeps those mandatory checks on schedule and easy to evidence.

Who should use this form?

Site managers and principal contractors responsible for a scaffold in use, plus your own team booking recurring seven-day checks. It suits anyone who needs an inspection carried out and recorded, whether for a routine interval or after a specific event on site.

Why capture the reason for the inspection?

A routine seven-day check, a post-alteration re-inspection and an after-weather check are triggered by different things and can carry different urgency. Recording the reason lets your inspector prioritize the visit and note on the tag exactly why the scaffold was signed off.

Is this inspection form free to use?

Yes — it’s free. Create a Fun Forms account, customize the inspection reasons and fields to match how you work, restyle it to your brand, and embed it on your website with no coding. Every request is captured with the scaffold reference and reason attached.
