Difficult Access Sign Removal – Skymark Scunthorpe

The Comprehensive Group were contacted by a new warehouse owner who required the previous company branding removal from the building as part of a company buyout.

The difficult access sign removal was more complex than simply taking down the sign because of some tricky access issues.

The Skymark signage was mounted in a high and hard-to-reach spot on the warehouse facades, and the building roof had a limited load-bearing capacity, which meant we could not use typical heavy access equipment on it.

As a safe solution to overcome these challenges and undertake the difficult access sign removal, we brought in a 57 metre truck-mounted MEWP, a type of aerial work platform that allows safe access to elevated heights.

This truck-mounted lift was essential for reaching the signage quickly and safely, especially given the tight space and height restrictions on the site.

The signage itself was bulky and mounted in sections, as depicted in the accompanying project images, so our site technicians carefully dismantled it into manageable pieces. Breaking down the sign into smaller parts helped us avoid damaging the building and ensuring that each piece could be handled safely. Our site team worked systematically, focusing on safety as every step of the project. We made sure that the dismantling process was controlled, avoiding any risk of falling debris or damage to the building’s facade. Once all sections of this difficult access sign removal were taken down, we loaded them onto our clients supplied vehicle for removal from the site. This cleared way for our client to move forward with installing new branding on the warehouse exterior.

This difficult access sign removal project demonstrated the importance of choosing the right access equipment for touch access problems. Our team’s careful planning and experience ensured the signage was removed clearly and without incident, paving the way for the new warehouse inhabitants.
