Contract Lifting Services
A team of highly experienced individuals committed to offering their clients a hassle free lifting and transportation service fronts Leggat’s Contract Lifting Services. Trained in Appointed Persons duties and abiding by LOLER 1998 (Lifting Operations and Lifting Equipment Regulations 1998) and also BS7121 guidelines.
These individuals will plan, supervise and execute the lifting operation safely and efficiently every time. This service is best suited to clients with limited experience in modern day lifting operations. Guidelines and regulations are changing at a fast pace these days and unless you work in lifting operations on a regular basis it is difficult to keep up to date.
Companies should consider that every lifting operation is governed by the same regulations so if the contract lift option is not taken and crane hire only option is taken then the user is still committed to providing an Appointed Person and other certified labour themselves which should also be backed by a risk assessment and method statement.
We often find that customers opt for the services of Leggat Cranes because overall it proves to be more economical than providing labour and insurance from their own in house resources. In the main our contract lifting services are provided as per The Construction Plant Association Standard Conditions for a Contract for the Lifting and Movement of Goods Involving Crane Operation.
As part of these conditions insurance covers are also provided which provide extra peace of mind when using this service. At the end of the day if your own employees get things wrong the financial and legal penalties can be very severe. As standard practice Leggat Cranes will advise on correct slinging methods and types of lifting tackle to be utilised, correct crane selection and positioning. It is also common place for Leggat Plant to organise road closures, arrange traffic and pedestrian protection and liase with relevant authorities where required. In fact the Leggat team will handle just about anything that has anything to do with the lifting operation.
