Questions about marquee hire and assembly in Edinburgh

How much should I expect to pay for marquee hire and assembly in Edinburgh?

Prices vary with the job. Your price depend on the scope of the work and access, so the quickest way to an exact figure is to send your details. Our cost guide gives typical UK prices.

How fast can you get to Edinburgh?

Most Edinburgh enquiries get a reply the same day, and the majority of bookings can be scheduled within a week or two. If it is urgent, say so and we will try to fit you in sooner.

How do I get a quote in Edinburgh?

Just fill in the form on this page with your Edinburgh postcode, a few details of the job and when you need it. Photos help but are optional.

Do you work in Newington and other parts of Edinburgh?

Yes, we do. Our service covers all of Edinburgh, including Newington, Gorgie, Comely Bank, Craiglockhart, Liberton and Leith, plus nearby Livingston, Stirling, Perth and Dundee.

Do I need planning permission for a marquee?

Usually not. In England, the temporary use of land for an event for up to 28 days a year is normally allowed without planning permission, and marquees for one-off events are rarely an issue. Venues that keep a marquee up for a season, listed buildings and conservation areas can be different, so check with your council if the marquee will stay up for a long period.
