Our 150t crew recently completed a complex lift for O'Rourke Constructions, carefully lifting a 100+ year-old roof structure using our GMK5150L with 44.5t Counterweight.

With the support of local engineering and fabrication consultants, extensive planning went into ensuring a smooth and safe lift from start to finish. Our expert team worked closely together on the day to precisely position the structure onto the new columns.

A big thank you to Altus Traffic for once again providing full road closure support, allowing safe access and operation for the crane crew.

Proud to support local projects with safe, professional lifting solutions.

Another successful lift completed by the WBCH team 💪
We recently carried out a container house lift for a valued customer, tackling some challenging site constraints along the way. With no direct access available, the job required our 150t Crane to complete the lift from the road over the house.
This lift involved close coordination and planning, including a power outage and a full road closure to ensure everything ran safely and smoothly.
A big shout out to Ergon Energy and Altus Traffic for their support and professionalism throughout the job 👏
