Nayland Scaffold
Safe and efficient scaffold solutions Despite the recent change of ownership for Nelson-based business Nayland Scaffold, it will be business as usual. New owners Jonny Benbow and Justin Candish will continue to provide the same reliable service that’s been a trademark of the business over the past 30 years. With a background in construction, Nayland Scaffold was an easy decision for Justin Candish and an obvious fit for Jonny Benbow, given he’d been with the company for 20 years and knew it better than anyone. “I was 21 when I first joined the business and over the years I’ve learnt every facet of it. I’ve been managing it for the past 10 years so it felt like an easy transition. Some of our work is pretty specialised and we’re well positioned in the market to tackle some of the more challenging projects.” Although most of their business is largely industrial and commercial, they are also kept busy with civil works projects. “We do plenty of maintenance and residential type work in between the larger commercial jobs,” Jonny says. Other than supplying, erecting and dismantling scaffolding, they also supply safety netting, shrink wrapping, event stages and crane hire.
The company prides itself on reliable service and rising to a challenge, no matter how difficult the job may be. They don’t advertise their business logo on their product, maintaining that most of their work comes through word of mouth. “We turn up when we say we will and we know the importance of business and working within strict timeframes. We’ve established repeat business, based on the fact that our customers trust us,” Jonny says. Retirement villages are a big business growth area and the current building boom has meant their company is constantly in demand. One of their biggest projects to date, Summerset Retirement village in Stoke has been an all consuming project which they anticipate finishing within the next few months. Bridge maintenance is another of the company’s specialised areas and with over 150 bridge projects behind them, their experience throughout the South Island is extensive. Regardless of how simple or technical the job is, the business focus is on maintaining safe working environments, without compromising a client’s safety. Marine scaffolding is also a core part of the business and includes scaffolding anchor hulls, masts and encapsulating vessels.
