Structural Steel Lifting: How Crane Services Keep Bay Area Construction Moving

Supporting General Contractors in Richmond, Oakland, San Francisco & Surrounding Cities

Behind every solid structure is steel and behind every clean steel placement is a reliable crane team. In the Bay Area, where construction sites often deal with tight timelines, complex builds, and limited access, having a skilled crane service makes all the difference.

At Julian’s Crane Services, we support general contractors and steel erection crews with precise, heavy-duty crane solutions for structural steel lifting, framing, and multi-phase construction projects.

Why Crane Services Are Critical in Steel Construction

When it comes to placing steel beams, columns, and trusses, precision and timing are everything. Cranes are essential not just for lifting — but for setting steel safely and exactly where it needs to go.

Here’s what our team brings to every project:

• High-capacity cranes to handle heavy and oversized beams

• Experienced operators who coordinate closely with your crew

• Efficient setup and breakdown to keep your schedule moving

Whether you’re building a new retail center, residential development, or warehouse, we make sure your steel arrives and sets on time and on target.

We Work with Contractors Across the Bay Area

From small residential builds to multi-tenant structures, our team works with contractors all over:

• Richmond: Custom homes, framing jobs, and infill development

• Oakland & San Francisco: Urban builds with tight access and height restrictions

• San Jose, Concord & surrounding cities: Warehouses, commercial units, and structural steel assembly

We understand that no two jobs are the same — and we bring the flexibility, communication, and professionalism your team needs on site.
