Crane Repair Services Required Following Hurricane Sandy in NYC

As millions of individuals watched in awe of the gigantic crane dangling and swaying over the streets of midtown Manhattan in New York City while Hurricane Sandy winds tore through surrounding luxury high rises, it served as an imperative reminder to many the necessity of properly functioning cranes and ensuring that crane repair services are made on a timely and consistent basis. While, according to the Wall Street Journal, the company that owned and operated the NYC crane was found to be up to par on maintenance of their crane, it is important for crane operating companies to have their cranes regularly inspected. It’s also important to have everything from monorail systems to overhead cranes inspected. For crane repair, choose a company that is in compliance with Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) standards. Avoiding accidents, such as the NYC crane incident, can happen as long as repairs occur and root cause analysis is completed regularly.
