In the practical world of Aussie tradies and home renovators, the decision between renting and owning scaffolding is a crucial one.
Consider Dave - a seasoned tradie, and Sarah - a passionate home renovator.
Both frequently faced the problems of renting scaffolding for their projects, which adds up in costs and eats into their profits or renovation budgets.
Problems can include:
- Ongoing daily rental cost that keep accumulating everyday
- Project delays or bad weather
- Hidden costs such as delivery, setup, and dismantle fees
- Availability of goods is uncertain
- Whether or not it is economical each time for both short projects due to upfront costs, or long term jobs due to accumulating ongoing costs
Dave and Sarah considered the upfront cost of purchasing scaffolding as an investment:
- Owning scaffolding eliminates ongoing rental fees
- Provides the flexibility of use whenever needed
- Can lead to significant savings over time
- Ability to choose to do both short and/or long projects
- One time expense - eliminating overhead costs
For Dave, it means offering better rates to his clients and/or improving his profit margins.
For Sarah, it translates to more control over her renovation costs and timelines.
In both cases, it helped solve the problems of projects being too small, or too big to do. Owning scaffolding in many cases pays for itself, but you can consider your own specific needs and goals to determine if the investment is right for you.
