Chris Sedgeman Wins Access & Scaffolding Specialist of the Year 2015

Cornish scaffold contractors Chris Sedgeman Scaffolding scoop the prestigious Construction News Access & Scaffolding Specialist Award.

At a star studded event at the Hilton in London yesterday (18 March) Chris Sedgeman Scaffolding Ltd for the 2nd year on the trot was awarded the accolade after fierce competition from the other finalists.

The judges said Sedgeman ticked all the boxes when making their decision on the winner after the firms performance on a challenging emergency project on the Cornish coastline in 2014.

After the terrible weather in early 2014 caused the railway to collapse at Dawlish, Chris Sedgeman Scaffolding expertise were called upon to help.

In a incredibly short space of time over 35 tons of scaffolding were supplied and installed before the next storm hit the Cornish coastline. The firm developed innovative ideas for most of the scaffolds on site and played a crucial role in a very high-profile emergency project.

speaking after the event Chris Sedgeman, Managing Director told ScaffMag:

“We are delighted with winning the Access and Scaffolding Award and feel proud of how much we have accomplished throughout the year. To receive this award gives us the incentive to progress the company further in more specialist areas and expand into different parts of the country.” 

“We would like to say well done to all the other finalists for their great work and thank them for there kind messages.  We would also like to thank all our employees, suppliers and clients for their support during the past year, and look forward to working with them in the future.”
