Defying the Odds: How Sidewall Scaffolding Rose in a Downturn

While the world began to halt during the global pandemic, a bold new player quietly took shape in Auckland’s residential construction sector. Born in one of the most uncertain periods in modern economic history, Sidewall Scaffolding (www.sidewall.co.nz) emerged not just to survive—but to thrive.

Founded at the height of the COVID-19 crisis, when businesses worldwide were retreating or shutting down entirely, Sidewall charted a different course. “We saw an opportunity where others saw risk,” says Dmitry Belevich, General Manager of Sidewall Scaffolding. “Construction didn’t stop. If anything, the demand for residential builds only intensified—and we stepped up to meet it.”

Built on Service, Strength, and Trust

From the beginning, Sidewall positioned itself as a scaffolding company with a service-first approach. Focused on safety, responsiveness, and professionalism, the team quickly earned a strong reputation across Auckland’s booming residential sector. Builders, developers, and homeowners found in Sidewall a reliable partner who could meet deadlines, handle complex site requirements, and maintain the highest safety standards.

The company’s client-first philosophy is visible in its flawless track record and outstanding Google reviews; all earned the hard way—on roofs, scaffold towers, and construction sites across the region.

From Auckland to Australasia

Now, with years of successful projects under their belts, the Sidewall team is thinking much bigger.

“We’re actively planning to expand our operations throughout New Zealand—and into Australia,” confirms Belevich. “Our systems are scalable, our team is ready, and we’re already discussing with strategic partners.”

This expansion is not just a dream but a roadmap. With growing demand in residential and light commercial sectors, especially in rapidly developing urban zones across both countries, the time is right for a service-driven scaffolding firm to scale fast.

An Open Door for Investors and Partners

With growth in sight, Sidewall is open to collaboration.

“We welcome proposals from investors and construction companies seeking long-term partnerships,” Belevich adds. “Whether it’s capital to accelerate our scaling or alliances to support joint ventures on larger developments—we’re ready.”

In an industry often dominated by traditional players, Sidewall Scaffolding brings agility, ambition, and a modern approach to scaffolding services. Their origin story—rising in a pandemic—is a blueprint for resilience. Now, their next chapter is all about momentum.
