Lifting & Mooring Equipment Testing & Certification

For Marinas, Boatyards & Waterfront Operations

If your marina or boatyard uses cranes, slings, davits or lifting frames to get vessels in and out of the water – you’re legally required to ensure all lifting gear is tested, certified and LOLER compliant.

We offer on-site and workshop-based LOLER inspections, load testing, and certification services for lifting and mooring equipment used in marine environments.

What We Test and Certify

We carry out inspections and re-certification of:

Boat hoists and davits
Mobile boat lifting cranes
Yard gantry cranes and spreader bars
Chain blocks and lever hoists
Fixed and adjustable lifting beams
Mooring bollards and shore-side hardware
Slings, shackles, eyebolts and lifting straps
Winches, hooks and hoisting gear
Jet ski lifts and small craft cranes

All inspections are carried out to LOLER and PUWER standards, and we provide full certification, tagging, and asset logs to help you stay compliant and audit-ready.

Who It’s For

Marina operators
Boatyard managers
Sailing clubs and yacht havens
Workboat yards and service docks
Slipways and boat movers
Commercial lifting and service providers

If you’ve got equipment that lifts or restrains vessels, we can test and certify it – keeping your staff, visitors and boats safe.

Mobile Testing Available

We offer on-site testing across the UK, including load testing, sling inspection, and certification renewal. We also collect and return smaller gear like shackles, hoists and chains for testing in our workshop.

Urgent re-certification needed? Planning your annual lifting season? Let’s get it sorted.
