The History of Jem Scaffolding Limited

JEM Scaffolding was founded over 30 years ago by the current owner's father and one of the most common questions we get asked is the origin of the name JEM. The company was named after the owner's niece Jemma who had Down's syndrome and suffered from many other medical conditions, including a hole in her heart. Unfortunately, Jemma died at the age of 5, but her name has lived on through the decades within the family company.

At the age of 19 current Managing Director Darren Toms took over the company from his father. Inheriting just one lorry and a few employees, over the past 18 years he has developed the company to the substantial size that it is today. In 2006 the company was registered as Limited. Darren has continued the evolution of JEM Scaffolding, including the expansion of our commercial and railway sectors.

2015 has proved an exciting year, with many projects in the pipeline, as well as purchasing larger premises which we hope to move into in the not too distant future. Currently with over 60 employees and a fleet of vehicles, we hope to continue to progress and grow as a company, whilst maintaining the positive customer relationships we have developed throughout the years.
