Our dedicated team of Heavy Lift Engineers possess the expert skills and knowledge required to manoeuvre, position, extract and relocate cargoes utilising our Crane Hire, Contract Lift and Jacking & Skidding services. Undertaking all lifting responsibilities our in-house Appointed Persons, Slinger, Banksmen and Crane Lift Supervisors, operating under Contract Lift Conditions, can provide Crane Hire services directly tailored to our client's individual requirements.

It is a legal requirement under The Lifting Operations and Lifting Equipment Regulations (LOLER) 1998 that every lifting operation is carried out in a safe manner. This includes use of a responsible person to guide the crane using suitable means of communication, and to securely attach the load to the crane.
