Plant operations managers and general contractor PMs across the Southeast turn to PEC when they need millwright services that can be scheduled tight, executed clean, and finished on the original date. Our crews install new equipment, align existing lines, dismantle and relocate machinery, and coordinate the cranes and rigging that move the heavy pieces in and out of your facility. One PEC team handles the whole sequence, which trims handoffs, shortens schedules, and removes the finger pointing that slows multi vendor projects.
PEC’s local shop in Covington, GA stocks common bearings, seals, and coupling sleeves, so when something breaks during a millwright project, parts are minutes away rather than states away. That keeps your downtime short and your production targets within reach, even when unplanned work shows up late in the shift.
We move fast, yet every bolt is torqued to spec and every guard is set before start-up.
PEC’s industrial millwright services cover the full lifecycle of your mechanical equipment, from new installs to precision alignment to controlled removal when a line is being replaced or relocated. Our millwright contractors handle anchoring, leveling, hydraulic hookup, and alignment using straightedge, optical, and electronic tools to confirm shafts share a centerline and belts track true at speed.
When equipment is in service, the same team supports millwright maintenance: vibration analysis, base re-grouting, coupling replacement, and the kind of preventive work that catches a problem before it becomes a shutdown. When something does go down, our millwright service crew can be on site fast to get the line back to spec.
For the work that crosses trades, we coordinate directly with PEC’s electrical contractor, process piping, and project management teams so the install lands ready to run.
Rigging and machinery moves often make or break a project schedule. Whether you are setting a press, moving a chiller across a plant, taking a production cell out of service, or staging steel for a new build, the rigging plan is what turns a complicated lift into a routine workday.
PEC offers three related capabilities that work together as part of the millwright and rigging division:
Bringing these capabilities under one division means a single project manager owns the lift plan, the crane coordination, the rigging hardware selection, and the millwright crew that bolts everything down once it lands.
Industrial millwright services span a wide range of equipment because every plant runs different gear, on different schedules, with different headroom and floor loading. PEC crews regularly handle installs, moves, and removals across most of the equipment categories that show up in heavy industrial facilities.
A typical PEC millwright and rigging project might involve:
If your equipment is heavy, complex to align, or hard to move through a working facility, it is the kind of work our crews handle regularly.
Lifts and machinery moves are among the highest risk activities on any plant or jobsite. PEC takes that risk seriously. Our riggers and millwrights are OSHA 30-hour certified, and safety planning is built into the work rather than tacked on at the end.
For each lift, the team works through the rigging hardware, the load weight and center of gravity, the path of travel, the door and ceiling clearances, and the floor loading at every set point. Plans are shared with operators and any other contractors on site so everyone knows what is happening, when, and where to stand.
We treat safety as a covenant with the customer, not just a checklist for the file.
PEC’s millwright services and rigging division supports plants across every market we serve in the Southeast:
Each industry has its own rules, tolerances, and expectations. The benefit of working with PEC is that those nuances are familiar to the same team that runs the lift, sets the equipment, and stays through start-up.
Whether you have a single press to set, a production line to relocate, or a build that needs a sub who can self-perform mechanical, electrical, and rigging scope on a single project, the next step is the same: a conversation with our team about what you actually need. From the first phone call through the final start-up, you work with the same PEC people the whole way.
