Finch of Bookham recently completed a rooftop generator installation using the newest addition to our fleet, the Grove 3060. Carefully planned specialist lifting operations saw the generator safely hoisted from the delivery vehicle and positioned onto the plant deck, demonstrating the precision, capability and reliability of our team and equipment on one of the crane’s first site deployments.
We successfully completed a complex boiler removal and installation project to and from a mezzanine plant room. Using specialist lifting equipment, including roller systems, pallet trucks, forklift jibs and certified lifting gear, we carefully manoeuvred both the old and new boilers within a restricted space.
Our team expertly managed the complex internal installation of a pre-cast ironer pit. The job involved a coordinated lift and precise positioning within an active laundry environment.
