Our Emergency Crane Breakdown Service


Here's how our emergency crane service call-out works: the moment you contact us, we assess the situation and dispatch our qualified technicians to your site. In Auckland, that means a 2-hour response time from your call. 

Our technicians arrive fully equipped with diagnostic tools and a comprehensive range of commonly needed parts, which significantly increases the likelihood of completing repairs during the first visit. 


Where immediate repairs aren't possible, we'll discuss temporary solutions to get you operational whilst permanent fixes are arranged. We understand that speed matters, but never at the expense of safety—every
emergency crane repair is thoroughly tested and signed off before we consider the job complete. This includes comprehensive crane inspection procedures to ensure your equipment meets all safety and compliance requirements before it returns to service.

Why Choose NCT?


There's no substitute for experience when you're dealing with complex industrial equipment under pressure. Our team brings over 60 years of combined industry experience to every crane maintenance emergency call-out, and that depth of knowledge translates directly into better outcomes for you.


We've encountered virtually every type of crane failure imaginable—from common faults that occur across multiple brands to obscure problems with older equipment that require creative problem-solving. Whether it's a gantry crane in a busy logistics facility, an overhead crane on a production line, or a workshop crane in a fabrication shop, this experience means our technicians can often diagnose issues by recognising patterns and symptoms that less experienced operators might miss.


Beyond the immediate repair, we also provide expert advice on preventing repeat failures. Our technicians will identify the cause of the breakdown and recommend maintenance strategies, ranging from regular hydraulic crane service schedules to electrical system inspections, to reduce the risk of similar problems in the future.
