Balfour Beatty

Now that the above two schemes have been successfully completed, I wanted to take a moment to personally and, on behalf of the Balvac team, thank you for your invaluable involvement during the Early Contractor Involvement and Construction stages. Your support and innovative approach in utilising the encapsulated suspended platforms was instrumental in our success.
Additionally, I would like to express my gratitude to your site team for their excellent work in installing the access in such a challenging environment and their commitment to maintaining the highest standards did not go unnoticed.
We truly appreciate your friendly, helpful, and engaging approach, where nothing was too much to ask. Your willingness to go above and beyond made a significant difference.
We look forward to the opportunity of collaborating with you and your team again in the near future.

Alumet

Our experience of working with Apollo cradles can be summed up with the words a “professional company” that were knowledgeable, proactive and responsive throughout the duration of the contract.

A company that we would employ to work with for future projects and would recommend others to do so.

Stone Technical Group

We’ve used your mobile access power cradle on several key projects over the years, and the service has always been top-notch – reliable, prompt, and hassle-free. It’s made a real difference on site, and we wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Apollo Cradles and Joe Hooper for his valued support.

Vinci Construction

I would like to thank your team at Apollo for the outstanding work that you have conducted on the above job.

We used your mast-climbers as an aid with the brickwork, cladding and window instillation. And the service we have received was of an exceptionally high standard.

I have received nothing but complimentary feedback from our team on site.

On the few occasions that we did experience problems or break downs with the machinery, this was dealt with promptly and they were sympathetic to minimise any disruption caused.

There were instances where we required alterations to be made and they were responsive and understanding at all times. Your team have remained professional throughout the whole the contract and are a credit to your company.

I would like to take this opportunity to thank Apollo and I would have no hesitation in using you again and would definitely recommend you to other companies.

It makes a big difference for when I am running a site. in the past I have worked with Adastra and SGB. On various high rise projects but none have been as responsive as Apollo have been.
Most of the time it has been Carl and Nathan on site, not disregarding the rest of the lads. They all have a nice attitude to get the work done.

Sometimes it is nice to pass back positivity for the team.
