Flying Shores give you support where walls need stabilising during structural work, and that’s exactly what we provide at Solent Scaffolding. You’ll find us working across Southampton, Bournemouth, London and surrounding areas, helping you keep buildings secure while work moves forward.
When you use flying shores, you’re supporting one structure from another using horizontal struts that span across open space. We install them at Solent Scaffolding when walls need temporary support during alterations, removals, or repairs. Alongside this, we build safe access walkways so you can move around the area while the structure stays secure. It gives you both stability and access at the same time, without putting pressure on the ground below.
We take planning seriously because structural support needs to be right from the start. You’ll notice we focus on stability first, then build access around it.
Flying shores solve a problem that standard scaffolding can’t handle on its own. They support structures while still allowing work to continue around them.
Flying shores are used to support walls or structures when parts of a building are being altered or removed. They transfer the load across to another stable structure. This helps keep everything secure while work takes place.
Yes, when designed and installed properly, they provide reliable structural support. We calculate loads carefully and position everything to hold firm. We also carry out checks during the project to make sure everything remains stable.
No, they work alongside scaffolding rather than replacing it. The shores provide structural support, while the scaffold gives you access. Together, they create a safe and workable setup.
Installation time depends on the size and complexity of the structure. Smaller setups can be completed fairly quickly, while larger projects take more planning and time. We organise everything so it fits into your schedule.
They can be used on many types of buildings, but it depends on the structure and condition of the walls. We assess the site before recommending them. If they’re suitable, we design them to match the specific needs of your project.
If your project involves structural changes and you need reliable support in place, we’re here to help you get it sorted. We’ll keep things clear, give you a straightforward quote, and make sure everything fits your job from the start.

Every structural job comes with its own challenges, and support systems like flying shores need to fit around how you work. We take the time to understand your project so the setup supports both the building and your day-to-day work.
You’ll notice we stay flexible because structural work can change as it progresses. If conditions shift or adjustments are needed, we respond quickly so you can carry on without delays. It’s about keeping everything stable while your work continues.
If you’re ready to talk it through, give us a call on 023 8124 4251 and we’ll help you plan the right setup. We’ll listen, give clear advice, and make sure your flying shores are installed in a way that supports your project from start to finish.
