We were back working with campionhomes in Balmullo, helping remove a site sales cabin.

Normally we are on site with them on a CPA hire basis, but this one needed a bit more thought and moved over to a contract lift.

The cabin had been altered, so the standard lifting points were not an option. We rigged it using our own spreader beams to make sure the lift was carried out safely and under control. It is jobs like these where planning and experience really come into play.

Also, not a bad pairing… our Liebherr LTM1090 and Kev from Williamson’s Scania looking the part. 😮‍💨 (thanks for the pictures Kev!)

🥳 One year of Matt “Beardy” Bremner 🥳

Beardy joined us from a low loader background with a clear goal of moving into crane operations, and he’s worked hard from day one to achieve that. In autumn 2025 he gained both his CPCS Slinger Signaller and Mobile Crane Operator qualifications, passing with flying colours.

Since then, with time in the seat, Beardy has developed into a safe, steady and efficient operator. He’s just as capable supporting on the hooks as he is operating, and his transport experience continues to add value to the wider team.

He’s settled in well and reflects the standards and approach we’re known for as a business.
Thanks for your efforts over the past year, Matt. We look forward to seeing your continued development. 👏🏼

Our business is built on good people. Whether you already have the experience or bring transferable skills and the right attitude, we can support the rest. If you like what we do and how we operate, and feel you would be a good fit, we are always open to a conversation.

We have shared this one from Industrial Group as it is a good example of the type of work they get involved in.

On this job, we supported on the lifting side of a caustic tank removal, working alongside the wider Industrial Group team delivering the full package.

These are the sorts of projects we really enjoy being part of, proper planning, teamwork, and getting the job done right.
If you have not already, take a look at the Industrial Group page to see what they have been getting up to. 👏🏼

Good progress up in Pitlochry on one of our current steel erecting projects.

We’re currently working through around 120 tonnes of steel plus cold rolled , and it’s coming together well on site. 👏🏼

During a site visit, we took a moment to celebrate one of our own…

Happy Birthday to Derek 🥳

Derek is our longest serving member of the team (25 years!) and brings a level of knowledge and experience in steel erecting that is hard to match. He’s played a key role in shaping what our steel erecting service is today and continues to lead from the front on projects like this.

If there’s a problem on site, Derek will usually find it… and then sort it. That’s just the way he works. Not one to stand back, always happy to get stuck in and get the job done.
A proper grafter and a big part of the Johnston Rigging story.

We’ve added a short clip showing some of the progress on site along with a well earned bit of birthday cake. 🎂

A recent job in Perth saw us supporting the load out of decommissioned wind turbine components.

We were appointed to deliver a full contract lift, including site visit by our Appointed Person, followed by RAMS and lifting plan issued for review and acceptance prior to works starting.
On the day, everything ran as planned. Components were lifted, loaded onto transport, secured and turned around efficiently with no issues.

For this job we used our Liebherr LTM 1090-4.2 (90 tonne), which is settling into the fleet really well and proving to be a solid, reliable crane for this type of work.
If you are interested in what the crane is capable of, you can view the spec sheet here:�

🏗️ Pick & Carry 🏗️
We recently supported mechanical engineers inside a fully operational factory, providing a safe and efficient lifting solution for the removal and refit of various press machine flywheels.
With extremely limited headroom and the requirement to pick and carry 2.90 tonne flywheels, careful planning was key. A pick and carry crane was selected, fitted with a hydraulic searcher hook to allow precise positioning in very tight spaces.

The works were delivered under a CPA contract lift, with our crane and operator supported by an experienced lift supervisor and slinger signaller, working closely with the mechanical team throughout the operation.

A fantastic effort from everyone involved, navigating restricted access safely and efficiently.

👷👷🏻‍♀️ Proud of Our People👷🏻‍♀️👷

Back in December we held a team day that kick started our focus for 2026.
We spent the morning exploring what makes a great team and looking at the behaviours we want to stop, start and continue. The honesty and input from everyone was excellent.
The aim was simple and important. We wanted a space where people could share ideas, frustrations and suggestions openly. That conversation is still driving positive change across the business, including stronger communication, better teamwork and a more supportive environment.

After all the talking and planning, we swapped flipcharts for shotguns and finished the day with some clay shooting fun. 🤪

Here’s to continuing to better ourselves as a team 💪🏼
