Crane Safety Inspection and Certification

All lifting equipment must undergo crane safety inspection and certification as required by WorkSafe BC and other regulatory bodies.

In addition, each inspection must be certified by a professional engineer. Only then is the equipment deemed safe for use.

We provide crane safety inspections and certifications that meet these requirements across Western Canada. We don’t just provide a decal; we provide you with peace of mind.
