What does heavy equipment moving cost in Chelmsford?
Prices vary with the job. Prices in Chelmsford come down to the scope of the work and access and timing, so the quickest way to an exact figure is to send your details. Our cost guide gives typical UK prices.
Will the floor take the weight?
It needs checking. Concrete ground-floor slabs in industrial units usually cope, but suspended floors, mezzanines, ramps, drain covers and older buildings can be a problem. We look at the route on the survey, spread loads with steel plates or timber where needed, and recommend a structural engineer's check if there is any doubt.
