Hello.
I just had a scaffolder over.
He checked, measured, and gave me a price.
The house is a functionalist style from 1937 with 6.5 meters to the eaves.
10*12 meters totaling 286 square meters.
The price he quoted was 25000 for 1 month, including erection and dismantling.
I'll be renovating and replacing the roof, so it’s clearly a few weeks of work.
What do you think about the price, is it crazy expensive, normal, or cheap?
Best regards, Simon

I have paid 25000 + VAT for 2 months totaling 18 linear meters 6 meters high 2 working levels. Then I have been able to extend the rental period at no extra cost, feels almost too good to be true, so we'll see how it sounds when they have to dismantle it.
This is in Stockholm.

We rented for three months for a similar house like the one you mention. We paid around 50,000 including VAT with transport, erection, and dismantling.
If you don't need scaffolding around the entire house, I would instead recommend buying a used scaffold via, for example, Blocket that is enough for one side at a time. Then move the scaffold around the house as you work. When you are finished, sell it and go on a nice vacation with the money you saved...

I will redo the entire roof plus some tongue and groove boards and fascia boards, new gutters with downpipes. It's high up to the fascia board, 6.5 meters, hipped roof, need to work "around the corners". So it will be difficult not to have scaffolding around the whole thing. That's probably a hit I'll have to take.
