Shrink Wrap and Containment for BC Job Sites

Between October and March the weather decides your schedule unless you wrap. Heat-shrunk sheeting over the scaffold turns an exposed elevation into a working envelope.

  • Heat-shrunk sheeting, welded seams, no flapping tarps
  • Debris netting where containment matters more than weather
  • Access doors and windows cut where the crews need them
  • Repairs handled during the job, not left to the wind

What shrink wrap does on a scaffold

Shrink wrap is a heavy polyethylene sheet pulled over the scaffold and heat-welded into a continuous skin. It keeps rain and wind off the work face so coatings, sealant and membrane can go on inside their temperature and moisture windows, and it holds dust and debris on site. On BC facade work it is what turns a wet-season schedule into a workable one.

What the job includes

Everything below runs under the same contract as the shrink wrap.

Wrap design

We plan the panel layout, the tie-in points and the door locations around how your crews actually move on the scaffold.

Installation

Sheeting is pulled tight, welded and heat-shrunk against the frame so there is nothing loose to catch wind.

Debris netting

Polypropylene netting where the job needs containment and airflow rather than a sealed envelope.

Maintenance

Storm damage and access cuts get repaired while the scaffold stands, so the envelope stays closed.

Where it fits

Wrapping earns its cost anywhere weather or dust would otherwise stop the work.

Envelope and facade repair

Sealant, membrane and coatings that have a moisture and temperature window to hit.

Occupied buildings

Containment that keeps grit and debris off balconies, walkways and parked cars.

Winter schedules

Jobs that cannot afford to lose weeks of Lower Mainland rain to stand-down days.

Questions we get

What contractors ask before booking shrink wrap.

Do you offer shrink wrap and debris netting installation?

Yes, we do. We use high-quality shrink wrap, which guarantees the protection of your building during the facade work. Debris netting installation is made of polypropylene, with the ribbons intertwined with weaving knots, so the canvas holds up in bad weather.

Can crews still get in and out?

Yes. Access doors, hoist openings and window flaps are cut and framed into the wrap where your crews need them.

Can you wrap a scaffold someone else built?

We would need to look at it first. The wrap loads the frame, so the scaffold has to be configured and tied for it. That is part of the site assessment.

Need shrink wrap on your site?

Send drawings or a site address and we will come back with an estimate in one to three business days.
