Couldnt thank these guys from Sherman Crane enough. I ordered a fire pit for my roof deck and realized later that the 500 pound behemoth was not going to be easily lugged up my small stairwell in my house. I was nervous to see it go over my roof but it didnt take me long to realize that these guys are real professionals. Something very tough to find nowadays. A+ work and an awesome group of guys. Thank you so much

Recently had Sherman Crane assist in lifting a piece of heavy machinery. Responded quickly, staff was courteous and showed up early which is always appreciated. The pick was quicker than anticipated which allowed my guys to get right back to work. Will continue business with them if the need occurs again.

I am a mechanical contractor and have used Sherman crane on numerous occasions in the city and the suburbs and they are a top notch operation. They are always on time (if not early) and always get the job done in a professional and safe manner. Being in the heating and cooling business it is not uncommon to have emergency replacements needed and no matter what the time line is, how large or how small the job has been Sherman has always made it happen. I would recommend this company to anyone!
