Cost effective construction with aerial cranes
Call 504-345-1818 Now
Traditional crane dominance in New Orleans construction is yielding to the efficiency of helicopter lifts. Across Louisiana, aerial heavy lift operations are increasingly preferred due to declining operational costs and significant advancements in helicopter power and lift capacity. This shift delivers faster project completion and enhanced site access.
Ground-based cranes encounter significant limitations in Louisiana's diverse terrain. Challenges include insufficient boom reach for high-rise structures, instability on soft or marshy ground prevalent in areas like Plaquemines Parish, and operational restrictions within environmentally sensitive zones. Helicopters provide the sole viable solution for critical projects such as erecting communication towers in remote locations, installing commercial HVAC systems on urban rooftops, and precise placement of large-scale signage across the New Orleans metropolitan area. We overcome these logistical hurdles.
Heavy lift helicopter operations significantly reduce project timelines by eliminating the extensive setup required for conventional cranes. Many complex installations, from the French Quarter to Metairie, can be completed in hours rather than days or weeks. Modern turbine-powered helicopters, boasting enhanced lift capabilities, offer a remarkably cost-effective solution, especially for loads up to 6,000 pounds, optimizing both schedule and budget efficiency.

We specialize in precision aerial placement of commercial heating, ventilation, and air conditioning units, streamlining installations for structures across the greater New Orleans region and beyond, ensuring project efficiency and safety.

Louisiana Helicopter Tower Construction
Achieving cost-effective communication and transmission tower construction is revolutionized by employing aerial cranes. We precisely lift vital materials, including concrete, tower sections, and equipment shelters, directly to remote sites across Louisiana, circumventing the exorbitant costs and environmental impact of constructing access roads in challenging terrains. Most tower projects, utilizing typical load limits of 2,000 to 6,000 pounds, can be completed in hours. For exceptionally demanding requirements, we provide heavy lift helicopter options capable of handling loads up to 20,000 pounds.
signage lifts
Placing heavy custom signage into position can be costly and difficult with traditional methods. Call and ask about how a helicopter can help make your job fast and easy.
cargo Transport
Resupply of construction sites in remote areas can be accomplished quickly with the use of a heavy lift helicopter and a high-capacity cargo net.
outsized lifts
While costly & highly in demand, super-heavy helicopters like the Boeing CH-47 Chinook are available for projects that require lifts of as much as 20,000 pounds.
