When Every Hour Costs Money
When a crane strikes a structure, suffers a shock load, or gets tagged out by SafeWork mid-project, the financial bleed is immediate. You cannot wait weeks for an inspection. You need chartered engineers and certified technicians on site, right now.
Cranes Australia operates a dedicated 24/7 emergency response unit. We mobilize nationwide to assess damage, perform urgent NDT, engineer repair procedures, and issue compliance certificates. Our goal is simple: ensure safety and get your asset back to work with absolute minimal downtime.
Emergency Protocols

- Nationwide MobilisationFly-in teams for remote mining and infrastructure sites
- Priority ReportingDigital reports issued immediately upon test completion
Rapid Response Capabilities
Immediate technical intervention for critical incidents.
Emergency NDT
Rapid deployment of technicians for urgent crack detection and assessment.
Incident Response
Immediate structural inspection following a dropped load, collision, or shock load.
Emergency Engineering
On-the-fly engineering calculations to assess the safety of damaged structures.
Urgent Load Testing
24/7 load testing services to get repaired cranes back into service instantly.
Fast-Track Cert
Priority processing of compliance certificates to satisfy site regulators.
Rapid Repair Procedures
Overnight development of engineered weld procedures to fix critical breakages.
Why Speed Matters
The compounded cost of delays.
Project Standstill
A tagged-out tower crane stops the entire critical path of a high-rise build, costing tens of thousands of dollars per day.
Liquidated Damages
Delays in getting heavy plant back online can trigger severe liquidated damage clauses in Tier-1 contracts.
Regulator Heat
SafeWork will not allow an incident-involved crane to move until a chartered engineer has formally assessed and cleared it.
Our Process
Immediate Triage
Call our emergency line. An engineer will assess the situation over the phone and dispatch the correct team.
Site Mobilisation
Technicians arrive with NDT equipment to assess the structural damage and lock down the asset.
Action Plan
We immediately draft an engineered repair procedure or clear the crane for use if no structural damage is found.
Re-certification
Once repairs are completed, we instantly inspect, load test (if required), and issue the certificate to resume work.
