10-Year Major Inspections on the Sunshine Coast

Plenty of Sunshine Coast machines were bought during the region's earlier growth spurts and are now arriving at their 10-year window together. Scissor lifts from the Maroochydore commercial precincts, boom lifts and knuckle booms from the Kawana hospital build and coastal residential construction, and cherry pickers that have worked the region's trade and utility corridors — for a small fleet or an owner-operator, the major is a genuine fork in the road: reinvest in a machine you know, or trade it into a strong used market, and that decision can only be made well with a firm scope and quote before anything is pulled apart.

EWP Australia delivers 10-year major inspections for Sunshine Coast owners from Caloundra to Noosa across scissor lifts, boom lifts and cherry pickers: full strip-down of structure, NDT of critical welds and pins, hydraulic and electrical assessment, load testing and the engineering documentation that gives the machine its next decade. Coastal Queensland machines get particular scrutiny on corrosion, which a decade of salt air and humidity hides deep in structure.

FAQs

10-Year Major Inspections in Sunshine Coast — Common Questions

Is a major worth it for a machine that's only done light coastal work?

Often yes — light-duty machines with sound structure are usually the best major candidates. We assess condition first and give you a straight recommendation either way.

How do I plan around losing the machine during the major?

We agree the scope and expected window up front so you can arrange cover. Booking ahead of the due date gives you control over when the downtime lands.
