Sheffield’s Premier Roofers and Cherry Picker Hire Service

At Dalton Roofing, one of the services we provide in Sheffield is an operated cherry picker hire. One of the reasons we offer this is because operating a cherry picker is often much cheaper than using scaffolding. Cherry pickers cut out the time-consuming task of erecting and dismantling scaffolding by taking you to your desired height quickly and safely. And because cherry pickers provide incredible efficiency of movement with a remarkably flexible reach, it results in a more productive day’s work.

Furthermore, cherry pickers can help you carry heavy and difficult equipment easily, making your work more efficient and speeding up the job’s overall completion time. So, if you’re looking for cost-effective cherry picker hire in Sheffield, get in touch with the team at Dalton Roofing who can drive out and operate the picker for you. 

Let’s have a look at the video below where you can see the Dalton Roofing team operating one of our cherry pickers.

What is a cherry picker and what is it used for?

Also known as a boom lift, man lift, basket crane or hydraladder, a cherry picker is a hydraulic crane with a raised platform at the tip. A cherry picker is used for raising and lowering people to provide safe and efficient access to raised objects, such as a roof, tree or overhead cables. Here are some jobs which may require you to hire a cherry picker: 

• Cutting over hanging tree
• Fitting bird spikes
• Exterior painting
• Difficult access building repairs
• Chimney repairs
• Roof repairs

 If you need the services of a cherry picker then call us now. We can send out one of our fully IPAF trained operators who will meet you at your property to carry out the work before driving away once the job is complete.

The Cherry Picker in Action: Factory Roof Maintenance 

You can see one of our cherry pickers in action by watching the video below. Our man Phil Dalton, is carrying out some essential roof maintenance on a factory building in Sheffield. The property is suffering from various leaks due to weathering and cracks in the old Georgian wired cast skylight roof windows. 

By using the cherry picker, Phil is able to safely remove the glass and replace the windows with modern polycarbonate roof sheets. This will give the property’s roof a lightweight, impact resilient skylight with excellent insulation that allows daylight to enter the building unopposed. What could have been an arduous and time-consuming task with scaffolding was made safe and efficient by the use of our cherry picker.

As you can see, cherry pickers are a great option for roof repair. So, if your property is suffering damage as a result of a leaking or defective roof, get in touch with us now for a free roof inspection. And if you need the help of our cherry picker hire service then we’ll sort that out for you too.
