Reviews

We used Purple Crane today to lift a spa over the house. Keith and his operator felt comfortable before even starting the job that there would be no issues. Keith came out last week and explained the entire process to us putting our mind at ease, as much as it can be having a 2000 lb. spa craned over your house! We asked a lot of questions. Keith was patient and answered every question we had. He and his crane operator were knowledgeable, personable and professional. I would highly recommend Purple Crane for heavy lifting jobs.
