For residential building contractors, keeping a framing crew waiting on lumber is a significant drain on profitability. Our residential crane services bring fast, reliable hoisting directly to custom home builds and suburban subdivisions. We specialize in lifting bundled floor joists, prefab wall panels, and complex roof truss networks safely into position. Our nimble boom trucks and self-erecting tower cranes navigate tight residential streets, overhead trees, and close property lines without causing property damage, ensuring your framing stays on schedule.
Call (647) 699-2216Every residential truss lift follows a disciplined, safety-first sequence from first contact to final hook-down.
You submit your project location, truss layout, and access details. Our team reviews ground conditions, overhead clearances, and swing radius requirements to confirm the right machine and provide a fast, accurate quote.
Before arrival, our operator reviews the truss staging layout, identifies septic fields and underground utilities, and confirms outrigger pad placement to protect your driveway and landscaping from any damage.
Our boom truck or self-erecting tower crane arrives on schedule. The operator deploys outrigger pads on solid native ground, confirms swing clearances, and rigs the first truss bundle for lift within minutes of arrival.
Our certified operator lifts each truss bundle with smooth, controlled movements. Trusses are guided precisely into position by your framing crew, with the operator holding steady load positions while connectors are secured.
Once trusses are set, we can continue with roofing shingle bundles, insulation packages, or any other heavy materials your crew needs placed directly onto the roof deck - saving significant manual handling labor.
After the final pick, our operator retracts outriggers, removes all rigging hardware, and clears the site cleanly. We confirm your framing crew is satisfied before departing, leaving your property exactly as we found it.
