Grays sits in Thurrock, which runs its own highway permissions. If the scaffold is on the public highway, the licence is Thurrock Council — not Chelmsford. We quote with that lead time in it.
Domestic work is the usual two-storey stock plus a lot of infill. The distinctive jobs are industrial: warehouses, riverside, and access that has to live next to live traffic and live plant.
Chafford Hundred, Little Thurrock and the edges toward Stanford-le-Hope are priced as Essex domestic once we know the plot. The docks and logistics sheds are a different conversation.
Typical jobs
- House roofs and extensions
- Industrial, warehouse and riverside access

Licences and access
Pavement licences: Thurrock Council. Industrial sites need inductions and a permit-to-work; we ask for the site rules with the enquiry.
