Who am I?
My name is Ludovic Paley, and I am the head of SMD Grues, a family business founded in 1990 by my father, Christophe Paley, right here in Gollion. It was alongside him that I learned the trade – a school of discipline, precision, and passion. Today, I proudly carry on his legacy, bringing in my own touch, energy, and constant attention to the needs of modern construction sites.

My background and values
Trained directly in the field, I’ve been immersed in the world of cranes, construction machinery, and mechanics from a very young age. My goal is simple: to offer you a local, professional, and human service, where each intervention is handled seriously and efficiently.

🛠️ Your construction sites, my priority: tailor-made services and proven know-how

At SMD Grues, I offer a wide range of professional services tailored to your projects, whatever their scale. Here is an overview of my main services:

🔹 Crane and machinery rental
I provide a fleet of reliable, well-maintained and ready-to-use construction equipment:

• Fast-erecting cranes

• Tower cranes

• Various lifting machines

• Other equipment on request
  Short-, medium- or long-term rental – delivery and commissioning included.

🔹 Assembly and disassembly
I come directly to your sites to assemble, disassemble or move your cranes. Thanks to my experience and equipment, these operations are carried out quickly and safely.

🔹 Preventive and corrective maintenance
To avoid breakdowns or extend the lifespan of your equipment, I offer regular technical inspections, lubrication, parts replacement and necessary mechanical adjustments.

🔹 Fast breakdown service
In case of failure, I intervene quickly on-site to diagnose, repair or replace the necessary parts. My goal: to minimize your downtime as much as possible.

🔹 Sale of tools and machines
I also offer for sale:

• Refurbished cranes

Every site is unique. That’s why I support you from the project phase to guide you toward the most effective solutions, based on your technical constraints, deadlines, and budget.
