"Dale was a key part of our lifting operations during the construction of our new hotel development. His attention to detail, calm decision-making, and commitment to safety kept the project running smoothly from start to finish. Having a crane supervisor who not only understands the technical side but also communicates clearly with everyone on site made a huge difference. We’d work with him again without hesitation."

Main Contractor

HPC, Somerset

"First-class professional. Operating one of the site’s major tower cranes, he showed exceptional control, awareness, and discipline in a highly regulated environment. His ability to coordinate safely within such a complex site structure was a credit to his experience. Reliable, calm under pressure, and fully aligned with the strict safety culture expected on a project of that scale."

R.H

“As a Site Manager, I’ve worked with many Appointed Persons, but Dale stands out for his work ethic and professionalism. He’s the first on site, the last to leave, and never cuts corners when it comes to safety or planning. His commitment to doing things properly sets the tone for the whole team, and his attitude makes even the most demanding lifts run smoothly. A genuine asset to any project.”

August 10, 2025

Every year, lifting operations account for a disproportionate number of construction incidents, project delays, and avoidable costs. After two decades working across major infrastructure projects—from HS2 and Crossrail to nuclear power stations and commercial developments—we've seen the same mistakes repeated on sites throughout the UK.The issue isn't usually equipment failure or operator error.
