Public contracts won
Emperor Scaffolding Limited has 5 public sector contract awards on record; the ones with their own published value total £1.8M, from 2015 to 2024. Source: Contracts Finder and Find a Tender award notices. For 1 of them the published figure is a shared or multi-year ceiling (a framework place, a multi-supplier award, or more than a small company could hold alone), so no value is shown. These were matched by the company's exact name because the notice gave no company number.

Filing notes for scaffolding companies
Scaffolding companies own a lot of equipment that wears out, so capital allowances on scaffold stock and vehicles are usually the biggest adjustment between accounting profit and taxable profit.
