Overhaul & Refurbishment of Powered Access Plant
Overhaul & Refurbishment of Powered Access Plant
There comes a time in the life of every hard working machine when a major overhaul is needed. Bearings wear out, even when they have been routinely lubricated, ropes stretch beyond safe limits and mechanical components can all be damaged by the stresses and strains of hard daily use.
When that time comes, down time on any machine can be a big problem in your business. With many years of experience in powered access platform maintenance, we understand that time in the workshop is not time earning money. That is why your machine will be overhauled quickly and efficiently, returning to work as soon as possible.
Major overhauls can very often be carried out on site, or in our own workshop when that isn't viable, with collection and delivery service available to local customers. After a thorough examination, you will be quoted for the necessary repairs quickly, so that we can get on with restoring your MEWP equipment at the earliest opportunity.
Our overhaul personnel are all qualified to CAP standards and your machine will be restored in compliance with all current legislation and standards, including the issue of a new LOLER certificate.
If your powered access plant is in need of some big love, call us on the number shown, or click in the header of any page to send us an email outlining what you need and leave the rest to us.
Blaisdon lies about 8 miles South West of Gloucester on the edge of the Severn flood plain. Before the Norman Invasion it was known as Blethes Dene, meaning 'wooded place'. The village turns towards the rich farmland of the Vale of Gloucester, and its land is predominantly fertile, once with many orchards growing the 'Blaisdon Plum'. Always small, the village is protected by the barriers of the River Severn and Forest of Dean The centuries were hardly noticed here, and even the Civil War of 1642 passed by it. The early houses were timber framed, built with Forest Oak, but a disastrous fire on 7th July 1699 destroyed most of the village. Subsequent rebuilding was in stone or brick, but some timber framed buildings remain. In the 18th Century the village estate was owned by Robert Hayle and John Wade, whose daughter Anna Gordon ran the estate until its sale in 1865. The Great Western Railway connected the village to the Hereford -Gloucester branch line in 1852, and steam trains could be heard in the village until 1964.
A rising industrialist, Henry Crawshay acquired most of Blaisdon in the 1860's, and rebuilt the nave of the church in 1866. Blaisdon Hall was built in 1876 for his son Edwin. By 1890 the hall and most of the estate had passed to Peter Stubbs, who built the entrance Lodge to Blaisdon Hall, the Village hall and the Forge. At the stud farm he bred Blaisdon Conqueror - the worlds largest shire horse, whose bones lie in the British Museum. On his death in 1906 Peter Stubbs eldest daughter, Mary Helen Macwer inherited the main hall and built the estate houses in the village centre, and the Gamekeepers Lodge. With her husband Colin, she ran the Estate until her death in 1928.The Salesians of Don Bosco acquired Blaisdon Hall as a seminary in the 1930's, and ran the Stud farm as a mixed farm school. A valued part of the village community, all visitors were made welcome at their home, until they left in 1995. Hartpury Agricultural College took the hall until 1999 when it returned to private ownership.
