For more than 40 years, we’ve been serving blue chip clients across a wide range of specialist sectors, providing a diverse range of lifting services all distinguished by our hallmarks of diligence, precision and efficiency. Our customers also benefit from industry-leading expertise from our in-house team, which includes some of the UK’s most knowledgeable, experienced and trusted experts.
Our staff comprises crane operators, lift operatives and engineers, contract lift managers, and health and safety officers, and their combined pool of expertise gives us the ability to target all areas of a project, including on even the most heavy or complex lifts in West Midlands.
Our contract lift solutions in West Midlands comprise a range of services in which we can undertake all aspects of the lift, starting right from the initial consultation. During the preliminary design phase, we use cutting edge CAD software and BIM modelling to scope the exact requirements of the lift. This gives us a strong foundation from which we can then (as required) move on to the subsequent risk assessment, method statement provision, QHSE analysis, road closure management, transport logistics and round the clock management.
We don’t outsource any of these services. Instead, they’re all undertaken by our very own in-house engineers and contract lift managers, so you can always have the complete confidence to Make the Safe Choice when you choose Ainscough Crane Hire. If your project involves a particularly complex or heavy lift in West Midlands, we can even provide our services as a bespoke turnkey package, tailored to your exact requirements and schedule.
Our fleet comprises a wide range of mobile tower cranes, crawler cranes and heavy cranes, any of which can be made available in any location across the UK. With more than 40 years of history to our name, we have a particular wealth of specialist expertise with the following sectors:
