What our customers say
Fantastic service, well organised and very experienced team. They lifted our clients boat from the canal on to transport in less than 2 hour’s including rigging and de-rigging the 100 ton crane. Would definitely recommend… thanks lads.
The guys came out and done a very professional job, lifting a hot tub into position. From start to finish all the planning, road closure was all taken care off by the NLS team in a busy area in Highwood Hill North London.
