Overview

When a crane stops, everything downstream stops with it. Every hour of downtime means lost production, missed deadlines and mounting cost. That is why our emergency breakdown line runs 24 hours a day, 365 days a year.

Call us and describe the fault. A CraneCert engineer responds with the diagnostic experience and parts to get you lifting again safely and properly.

What's included

  • Rapid telephone triage and fault diagnosis
  • Emergency engineer call-out, 24/7
  • On-site repair of hoists, brakes, drives, controls and structure
  • Common wear parts carried for first-visit fixes
  • Post-repair function and safety testing
  • Written report and follow-up recommendations

Why it matters

The CraneCert difference

Answered 24/7/365

Days, nights, weekends and bank holidays, you reach our engineers directly rather than a call centre. There are no call-out fees at any hour.

On site in as little as 60 minutes

Engineers dispatched from our Yorkshire base reach sites across Yorkshire, the Midlands, the North West and North East fast.

03

Fixed first time

77% of breakdowns are back in operation on the first visit because our vans are stocked with common critical spares.

04

Fix it right

We diagnose the root cause and carry out a safe, compliant repair rather than a temporary patch.
