FPS Pontoon Hire provides modular floating pontoon hire, floating work platforms, safety boats and associated marine access equipment for projects across Liverpool and Merseyside.

We support contractors, engineers and specialist teams working on docks, canals, rivers, marinas and waterside structures where safe temporary access over water is required.

Pontoon access for Liverpool projects

Liverpool and the wider Merseyside area include major dock systems, waterfront infrastructure, river environments and industrial waterways. Our modular pontoon systems can be configured to create practical working platforms beside structures, beneath bridges or in locations where access from land is restricted.

Typical applications

• Dock, quay wall and harbour wall access
• Bridge inspection, maintenance and painting
• River and canal bank repairs
• Geotechnical, environmental and hydrographic survey support
• Scaffold towers on floating platforms
• Dredging, piling and marine construction support
• Temporary floating walkways and access platforms
• Safety boat and work boat support

Configured around your site

We consider the required working area, personnel, tools and equipment, anticipated loads, water depth and conditions, access route, positioning requirements and hire duration before recommending a pontoon arrangement.

Where required, we can incorporate temporary works and stability calculations, edge protection, gangways, scaffold towers, ground protection and safety boat support.

Areas around Liverpool we cover

We cover Liverpool city centre and the wider Merseyside area, including Bootle, Seaforth, Birkenhead, Wallasey, Crosby, Formby, St Helens, Widnes and surrounding locations.
