When I needed scaffolding built up inside my house to install skylights, Canada Scaffold came to the rescue! From the first call with Kelly to the final take-down, their service was friendly, knowledgeable, humourous, and sincere. The installers were polite, courteous and clean. They called ahead of time so I was ready to great them and they made friends with my dog so he would stop barking! Would recommend them highly!
