LOLER Inspections for Arborist Equipment – Done Properly, With Your Safety in Mind

Hi, I’m Tom Rennison. If you work in tree surgery or arboriculture in the Darlington area, you already know how important it is to keep your gear safe, legal, and in top condition. That’s where I come in.

I offer thorough, fully certified LOLER (Lifting Operations and Lifting Equipment Regulations) inspections for all types of arborist equipment – from climbing gear to rigging setups and everything in between. Whether you’re a one-person outfit or running a full team, I’ll help you stay compliant and confident that your kit’s up to scratch.

What’s Covered in a LOLER Inspection?

As a qualified LOLER inspector, I carry out detailed checks on all lifting and climbing equipment used in arboricultural work. That includes:

  • Climbing ropes and harnesses

  • Karabiners and connectors

  • Pulleys, friction devices, and lowering kits

  • Slings, strops, and rigging lines

  • Ascenders, descenders, and other mechanical devices

I check for wear and tear, signs of stress, cracks, corrosion, and any other damage that might affect the safety or performance of your gear. If it’s not fit for purpose, I’ll tell you straight – no nonsense, no guesswork.

What You’ll Get

After every inspection, I provide a full, easy-to-understand report outlining what I’ve checked and what I’ve found. If something isn’t up to standard, I’ll explain why and suggest your next steps.

You’ll also receive a LOLER certificate of examination – a legal requirement if you’re using lifting equipment as part of your work. It’s not just about ticking a box, it’s about making sure you and your team can work with confidence, knowing your kit’s safe.

Flexible Drop-Offs, With Your Work Week in Mind

I get that taking your gear out of service during the week can be a real pain – especially when you’re busy and every day counts. That’s why I offer flexible options for inspections. You’re welcome to drop your kit off in the evening or over the weekend. I’ll get it checked and ready for when you need it again.

Why Choose Me?

I’ve worked in the arboricultural world for a long time. I understand the kind of stresses your kit goes through, and I don’t take shortcuts when it comes to safety. My aim is to make LOLER inspections as straightforward and helpful as possible – not a chore, but a service that genuinely adds value.

You’ll get clear communication, fast turnaround times, and an inspector who understands the job from the ground up. And as always, I treat every customer with respect – no upselling, no scare tactics, just straight, honest advice.
