Call anytime; weekend jobs taken.
Lincoln is one of the closest cities to the Newark base, around 17 miles up the A46, and it is a regular part of the area Elevation High Access Services covers. From the uphill streets around the cathedral to the terraces downhill and the newer estates towards North Hykeham and Birchwood, the tracked platform can reach most properties.
Lincoln's hilly layout, narrow streets and closely packed terraces make access one of the biggest parts of any job at height. A compact, tracked cherry picker that fits through a 780mm gap is often the practical alternative to scaffolding here.
Property types in Lincoln
Lincoln has a wide spread of building types. Around the cathedral and castle there are historic properties and Georgian houses, many in local limestone. The slopes below are lined with Victorian terraces, often built tight to the pavement with rear yards. Further out are inter-war semis, ex-council estates and large modern developments in North Hykeham, Birchwood and the edges of the city. There are also many student lets and rental properties, where landlords need roof and gutter maintenance done efficiently.
What Lincoln customers usually need
Common requests in Lincoln include slipped tiles and slates, chimney repairs on terraced streets, gutter cleaning and repairs for landlords, roof inspections with photo reports before buying or letting, and solar panel cleaning and bird guards on newer homes.
Every job in Lincoln is quoted for free and assessed before the machine is set up. The person who quotes your job is the person who does it: Dennis Whiteman, with 13 years in construction, an IPAF ticket, a CSCS Gold card and an NVQ Level 4 in Site Supervision.

Local issues
Common roof and high-level problems in Lincoln
Steep streets and sloping ground
Parts of Lincoln are built on steep slopes, which makes access equipment harder to position. Ground conditions must be suitable for the outriggers, and every job is assessed before the machine is set up, but the tracked platform can set up in most places.
Terraces built to the pavement
Many Victorian terraces in Lincoln have no front garden and only narrow rear access. Scaffolding at the front blocks the pavement. Reaching the roof through a rear passage with a 780mm-wide machine is often a better option.
Rental properties and landlords
Lincoln has a large rental market. Blocked gutters, slipped tiles and chimney leaks in rental homes need dealing with quickly to avoid damp complaints. Photos and a written report from a roof inspection give landlords a clear record of condition and recommended work.
Exposure on higher ground
Properties on higher parts of the city take more wind. Ridges, verges and chimney pots on exposed roofs work loose over time and are worth checking regularly.
Regional coverage
Working in Lincoln and the surrounding area
Lincoln is part of a wider working area that runs up to 40–50 miles from the Newark base, across Nottinghamshire, Lincolnshire and Leicestershire. Customers near Lincoln are also covered in Newark, Retford, Grantham, so if you own or manage properties in more than one of these places, the same person can look after all of them.
The services most often booked in Lincoln are roof repairs & maintenance, chimney repairs, gutter cleaning, repairs & replacement, roof surveys & inspections. All of them are carried out from the same Teupen LEO 18 GT tracked cherry picker, so related jobs at height can be combined into a single visit rather than paying for the machine to be set up twice.
Planning a job in Lincoln
To get an accurate price quickly, tell us what needs doing, roughly how high it is, and how the machine would reach it, for example the width of a side gate, a rear passage or access across a driveway. A photo taken from the ground is ideal. Mention what the ground is like where the platform would sit, because ground conditions must be suitable for the outriggers.
Homeowners, landlords, businesses and the council all book work in Lincoln. Whoever you are, the quote is free, the job is assessed before setting up, and Dennis carries out the work himself from start to finish.
