Crane Care provides 25 yearly crane assessments across Sydney to evaluate the structural condition and ongoing suitability of ageing lifting equipment.
Our engineering team examines critical crane components for fatigue, corrosion, cracking and other signs of deterioration, helping businesses make informed decisions about repair, refurbishment or replacement. We also provide crane structural assessments and major inspections for overhead, gantry, and jib cranes, as well as other industrial lifting equipment.
As crane assets age, a detailed structural assessment can help businesses better understand remaining serviceability, prioritise future maintenance and make more informed decisions about repair, refurbishment or replacement before larger issues develop.

What is a 25-year crane structural assessment?
A 25-year crane assessment is a detailed engineering review of an ageing crane and its structural condition.
Over time, repeated lifting cycles, environmental exposure and normal wear can affect the integrity of structural components. The assessment is designed to identify these issues and determine whether the crane remains suitable for continued service. Where concerns are identified, Crane Care provides clear recommendations for repairs, refurbishment, further testing or other engineering work.
Crane structural assessments across Sydney
Crane structural assessments focus on the condition of key load-bearing components and areas where fatigue or deterioration may develop over time.
Our engineers and technicians assess structural members, connections and other critical components, then document any issues that may affect long-term reliability or safe operation. This gives businesses a clearer understanding of crane condition and supports more effective maintenance and asset planning.
Crane major inspections for ageing equipment
Crane major inspections provide a broader review of older lifting equipment and can include structural, mechanical and safety-related components.
Crane Care conducts major inspections across a range of crane types, helping businesses identify emerging issues before they lead to equipment failure or costly downtime. Following the assessment, we provide a detailed report outlining the condition of the crane and any recommended maintenance, repair or engineering work.
Plan for the long-term condition of your crane
Ageing crane assets require a more detailed approach than routine servicing alone.
A 25-year crane assessment can help businesses determine whether continued operation is practical, what repairs may be required and how future maintenance should be planned. Early identification of structural issues can also help reduce the risk of larger and more expensive problems developing later.

Frequently asked questions
Yes. A 25 yearly crane assessment provides detailed information about the structural condition of the crane, helping owners determine whether the equipment can continue operating safely with repairs or refurbishment, or whether replacement is the more practical long-term option.
A 25 yearly crane assessment provides valuable information about the condition and remaining service life of your lifting equipment. The findings can help businesses prioritise maintenance, plan future capital expenditure and make informed decisions about repairs, refurbishment or replacement.
In many cases, yes. Crane Care can work with your operational schedule to complete a 25 yearly crane assessment during planned shutdowns or maintenance periods where possible. This helps minimise disruption while ensuring the crane receives a comprehensive engineering assessment.
