What holds most homeowners back from high-level work

Scaffolding costs thousands and takes weeks. A cherry picker arrives tomorrow, costs half as much, and finishes the job in hours instead of disrupting your home for months.

Scaffolding requires expensive permits and inspections

Installation and removal consume weeks of your time

Your garden and driveway become a construction site

Neighbors notice. The disruption lingers long after

Final costs often double the original estimate

Chimney & Flue Work

Is the spider lift suitable for chimney maintenance?

Yes. The Hinowa 20.10 is ideal for chimney inspections, repairs, capping, cowls, pot refixing/ replacement, flaunching and repointing due to its precise positioning and outreach over roofs. We also offer complete chimney removal to below roof height, and tile-over.

The tracked design offers low ground pressure, reducing the risk of damage. We assess ground conditions before setup and use mats where necessary.
