What We Do

Precision Mechanical Equipment Placement for Commercial & Industrial Sites

Mechanical contractors require crane placement that is fast, safe, and highly accurate. We handle commercial HVAC installations and old equipment decommissioning with minimal disruption to business operations. Our boom trucks and mobile cranes position directly alongside strip malls, industrial plants, or corporate offices to lift units over parapet walls and place them smoothly onto prepared structural roof curbs. We manage the pre-lift geometry so that weight, radius, and reach calculations are verified long before your mechanical crew takes delivery.

How It Works

Our HVAC Rooftop Lift Process

Every commercial HVAC hoist follows a disciplined sequence - from first call to final machine breakdown - so your mechanical crew never waits.

01
Site Assessment & Quote
You provide unit weight, building height, and access layout. We calculate reach, radius, and ground bearing requirements and deliver a same-day quote.
02
Pre-Lift Engineering Plan
Our team prepares a full lift plan - verifying outrigger positions, swing arc clearances, parapet wall geometry, and rigging configurations before mobilization.
03
Crane Mobilization & Staging
We arrive with the right equipment pre-rigged. Outriggers are deployed on engineered pads, safety cordons are established, and the machine is positioned for optimal reach.
04
Rigging & Load Verification
Certified riggers attach rated straps and spreader arrangements to the HVAC unit. Center of gravity is confirmed and a test lift is performed before full elevation.
05
Precision Rooftop Placement
The unit is hoisted over the parapet wall and guided precisely onto the structural roof curb. Our operator holds position while your mechanical crew makes final connections.
06
Breakdown & Site Clearance
Once placement is confirmed, rigging is released, outriggers are retracted, and the crane is demobilized. We leave your site clean and your operation running.

"Ontario Cranes showed up on time, had the lift planned perfectly, and finished 2 hours ahead of schedule. The operator was professional and clearly knew what he was doing. Will be using them again on our next project."

Common Questions

HVAC & Rooftop Lift - FAQ

The active hook time per unit is often under an hour, but total on-site time includes crane staging, outrigger deployment, rigging assembly, and final machine breakdown. Plan for a half-day to full-day window depending on unit count and site complexity.
Yes, we handle heavy high-tonnage mechanical equipment utilizing specialized mobile configurations designed for deep roof reach and high capacity. Our pre-lift engineering plan accounts for the full weight and reach profile of large cooling systems.
We provide standard certified straps and spreader arrangements. If a unit requires a specific proprietary lifting frame, we can integrate it seamlessly into our rigging system. We work with your mechanical supplier to confirm the correct attachment points before mobilization.
We establish strict safety cordons and exclusion zones. We often schedule commercial retail lifts during early morning off-hours to keep public areas completely clear. All overhead work is performed with proper signage and traffic control in place.
Our riggers inspect old units carefully before hoisting, using bottom-slung strap configurations to prevent structural failure during the removal cycle. If a unit is severely compromised, we discuss alternative rigging strategies with your mechanical team before proceeding.
Yes, we lift all types of supplementary commercial rooftop equipment including heavy ventilation runs, hood exhausts, and intake silencers. Any rooftop mechanical component that requires a crane to place safely is within our scope of work.
Yes, we work closely with your mechanical dispatchers to time crane setups perfectly with flatbed delivery arrivals, eliminating expensive crew standby time. Coordinated delivery and lift scheduling is a standard part of our service.
Yes, our certified operators and compliant machinery meet the strict safety protocols required by institutional, municipal, and medical facilities. We carry all required documentation and can provide certificates of insurance and WSIB clearance letters on request.
Call our main line at (647) 699-2216 with the unit weight, building height, and layout distance to get an immediate estimate. We respond to urgent HVAC replacement requests as a priority and can often mobilize within 24-48 hours depending on current schedule availability.
