scaffold plate, stains on driveway
« on: November 13, 2014, 08:44:30 pm »
has anyone had this happen,    scaffolders leaving square rusty marks from not putting boards underneath the pole bottom plates.      resulting rusty coloured square markings on the  slabs,     will they clear with a jet wash , or will stains stay  through wet weather resulting in that rusty look.

been asked over phone.

a bit far to go and view.

Oxalic acid..... or move the affected blocks to somewhere unobtrusive . Assuming that it is not Tarmac?

I have spoken to Kevin today and I am collecting two pieces of kit from them in the morning. Kevin is away from tonight so if you do want advice, from his perspective, it might be worth the email or ringing the office if he doesn't get back to you.
