Specialist crane hire services in St Helens
A crane is handy when doing work on high buildings and hauling heavy materials across long distances.
They completely speed up the process, so you can get a job done quicker and more efficiently. That’s why we offer a range of crane services in St Helens for different types of jobs.
- CPA crane hire: Our CPA crane hire in St Helens is made for contractors and businesses who already have an experienced lifting team in place. We supply a fully certified, well-maintained crane and a qualified operator, while you remain responsible for planning, supervising, and managing the lifting operation.
- Fully managed contract lifting: Not sure where to start with the whole process, from planning right through to getting the job done? Our contract lifting takes care of everything, from initial RAMS and safety checks, right through to crane operation and sorting out insurance.
- Specialist lifting personnel: If you already have a crane but you’d like expert supervision, we can supply qualified Appointed Persons (APs), Crane Supervisors, Crane Operators, and Slinger/Signallers to oversee securing and directing loads.
Comprehensive St Helens lifting services
We know that not every project has the same requirements, which is why we tailor our services completely to what you need. And if you don’t know what you’ll need, we’ll take a look at the project and help you decide.
Every job starts with the right amount of planning, site preparation, and risk assessments, which is why we provide our full support, from choosing a crane to planning the execution and accounting for things that could go wrong.
In doing so, we can prevent issues from poor crane management and, as a result, help you avoid costly delays.
Mobile crane hire
Our all-terrain mobile cranes, ranging from 40-tonne to 450-tonne capacity classes, can handle smaller construction lifts and demanding heavy-lifting operations.
They meet demands for steel erection, machinery installation, modular building placement, and lifting materials onto multi-storey developments.
Bespoke managed lifting packages
If your project is high-risk or multi-stage, we offer bespoke lifting packages to plan and co-ordinate complex, heavy, or multi-stage lifting operations.
That includes initial site surveys, risk assessments, detailed lift plans, method statements (RAMS), specialist rigging equipment, and qualified lifting personnel.
Specialist equipment and restricted access
We provide services for tough working conditions that require specialist equipment, such as restricted access areas where normal cranes and equipment won’t fit or operate safely.
Our fleet includes compact spider cranes, such as the Hoeflon C6e and Jekko SPX532, which are designed for precise lifting in restricted spaces.
You can also hire mobile tower cranes when you need additional reach and HIAB hire in St Helens when you need to lift and transport heavy materials.
Contact UsHealth and Safety
Safety is of the utmost importance when operating any type of heavy equipment, especially cranes and when carrying materials at a height.
We put a lot of time and effort into making sure all of our cranes are operated correctly, the most crucial being that they’re operated in accordance with BS 7121 (Safe Use of Cranes) and the Lifting Operations and Lifting Equipment Regulations 1998 (LOLER).
Crane work comes with real risks, so we take a careful, professional approach on every job by spotting potential hazards early and reducing them before any lifting starts.
Here’s how we look after health and safety:
- Detailed lift planning
- Risk assessments and method statements (RAMS)
- Qualified lifting personnel
- Well-maintained equipment
- Insurance arrangements sorted from the start
