COMPREHENSIVE INSPECTIONS & EXAMINATIONS

THOROUGH, INDEPENDENT INSPECTIONS
Our inspections are carried out by LEEA-certified engineers and approved agents, ensuring complete independence and compliance with industry standards. We provide detailed examination reports, identifying any issues that require attention and offering clear recommendations for remedial action.
COMPLIANCE WITH LOLER & PUWER REGULATIONS
We help you meet your legal obligations under the Lifting Operations and Lifting Equipment Regulations (LOLER) and the Provision and Use of Work Equipment Regulations (PUWER). These inspections confirm that your equipment is safe to operate, correctly maintained and suitable for its intended use — protecting both your workforce and your business.
STRUCTURAL & CONDITION ASSESSMENTS
For older or heavily used machinery, we can also carry out structural and condition assessments to evaluate the long-term integrity of your plant. These assessments help determine whether refurbishment, repair or replacement is the most cost-effective and safe option for your operation.
REFURBISHMENT & UPGRADE OPTIONS
We can support clients with complete refurbishment and upgrade solutions. If your inspection highlights issues that could be rectified through refurbishment, our team can deliver the required works — from hydraulic rebuilds to electrical and structural upgrades to keep your boatyard or marina running.
