Leading contract lifting projects in Chelmsford

Our contract lifting solutions cover a range of services in which our experts undertake all aspects of the lift as required. This detailed planning is undertaken by our own specialist engineers and contract lift managers, spanning right from the initial design phase (in which we typically use CAD software or BIM modelling to scope the exact requirements of the lift).

We can also assume responsibility for the method statement provision, QHSE analysis, road closure management, transport logistics and round the clock management. For particularly complex or high risk lifts, our customers can choose the option to have a bespoke, turnkey package tailored to an exacting set of deadlines and requirements.
