Independent crane inspections across Maine
If you run cranes in Maine, you already know how fast conditions can change. One week it is coastal wind and salt air around Portland and Bath, the next it is freezing mornings inland near Augusta or Bangor. Those swings matter. They speed up corrosion, hide wire rope damage, and turn small issues into downtime at the worst time, right when your crew and schedule are tight.
Marquis Crane Services provides independent third-party crane inspection and certification throughout Maine. We inspect mobile and tower cranes, support annual and post-assembly requirements, and help you document repairs, modifications, and safe operation with clear records. When you need a straight answer, you get one. Our inspections are impartial, detailed, and built around what keeps your jobsite safe and your equipment ready to work.
We are headquartered in Southern Maine, and we understand how projects run here, from shipyard and waterfront work to commercial builds, utilities, and heavy civil. We have more than 35 years in the crane industry with a background in repair, assembly and disassembly, and inspection, so you are not getting a clipboard-only visit. You are getting practical eyes that know where problems show up first.
One Maine customer, Chet Chludenski, put it best: “They’re knowledgeable, reliable, and extremely thorough with every inspection. Communication is always clear, and they go out of their way to make sure everything is compliant and safe. It’s a relief knowing our equipment is in good hands.” That is the goal on every site, every time.
To keep things simple for your office team, we use advanced inspection software to generate and email reports from the job site, plus cloud-based access to help with record-keeping. Less back-and-forth, less waiting, fewer surprises.
