Common crane requests in the Foothills
- Trusses for RV garages, shops, casitas and additions. See truss setting.
- Hot tubs and spas lifted over a house or wall. See equipment lifts.
- Steel shade structures, carports and patio covers. See construction lifts.
- Rooftop units on commercial buildings along the main corridors. See rooftop HVAC lifts.
Planning notes for residential lifts
- Measure from where the crane can park (usually the street or driveway) to where the load needs to land. That distance usually decides the crane size.
- Note overhead power and service lines, block walls, trees and eaves.
- Check HOA or park rules for heavy equipment or street parking, and give neighbors a heads-up if the street will be partly blocked.
- Unpaved desert lots can be soft. Mention if the crane would set up on dirt or gravel.
