Serving Vermont with independent crane inspections
In Vermont, schedules are tight and the weather does not wait. When you are lifting at a job in Burlington, setting steel near Montpelier, running a plant in Rutland, or supporting a project up by St. Albans, you need inspections you can trust, plus paperwork that is clean and easy to track. Marquis Crane Services provides independent third-party crane inspection and certification services across Vermont, with a focus on keeping your equipment compliant, safe, and ready to work.
We know what puts pressure on crane owners and operators here: cold starts, freeze-thaw cycles, road salt, and long stretches between service points when you are working in more rural parts of the state. Those conditions can speed up wear on wire ropes, pins, sheaves, and structural components. Our inspections are built to catch the problems that cause downtime, and to document what you need for audits, customers, and internal safety programs.
Marquis Crane Services is headquartered in Southern Maine, and we work throughout New England. Our team brings more than 35 years in the crane industry with a background in repair, assembly and disassembly, and inspection. That mix matters in the field because we do not just look at a checklist. We understand how cranes are built, how they get stressed on real jobs, and what issues show up after a tough pick, a transport, or a modification.
You also get fast, organized reporting. We use comprehensive inspection software that lets us generate and email reports from the job site, cutting down on back-and-forth and helping you keep records straight for each crane and rigging set. One Vermont contractor told us it was a relief to have a clear, thorough process they could count on. As Chet Chludenski put it, “Their team continues to exceed expectations year after year… extremely thorough with every inspection… communication is always clear… it’s a relief knowing our equipment is in good hands.”
