Smarter Roof & Gutter Maintenance with Niftylift MEWPs

Regular roof and gutter maintenance is crucial for protecting buildings from costly damage. At Niftylift, our MEWPs (Mobile Elevating Work Platforms) offer a safer, cleaner and more efficient way to carry out this essential work, making them an ideal choice for facilities managers and maintenance teams alike.

Why Roof and Gutter Maintenance Matters

Gutters and roofing are constantly exposed to the elements. Leaves, nesting birds and extreme weather can quickly clog or damage drainage systems, leading to issues like water ingress, damp and pest infestations. Left unchecked, even minor blockages can result in major structural damage and expensive repairs.

Planned Preventative Maintenance (PPM) programmes play a key role in preventing such problems—particularly when carried out using safe and reliable access equipment.

Tailored Access with Niftylift

Every building presents unique access challenges. Narrow passages, landscaped surroundings and proximity to public areas can make safe access difficult. Niftylift’s compact, low-emission MEWPs are built for these environments, offering flexible reach with minimal disruption.

Ideal for Smaller Properties
HR12 Range – With a working height of 12.2m and outreach of 6.4m, these machines are perfect for two-storey buildings such as care homes and schools. Narrow chassis options are available for tighter access.

For Mid-Rise Structures
HR15 Range – Offering up to 15.7m working height and 9.4m outreach, this range suits larger sites with complex rooflines.
HR17 Range – Provides 17.2m height and the same outreach, but with added up-and-over clearance for more intricate access requirements.

For Larger and More Demanding Sites
HR21 Range – Reaches heights up to 20.8m with a 13m outreach, making it ideal for commercial estates and multi-storey retail parks.
HR28 4x4 – Delivers up to 28m in height and 19m outreach—offering top-tier performance for large industrial roofs and extended guttering.

All-Electric Models for Quiet, Clean Operation

Our All-Electric models are powered by sealed AGM batteries, making them emission-free and virtually silent. They’re perfect for use around sensitive environments such as hospitals, schools, offices and residential areas. Models like the HR12LE, HR15E and HR17E feature our patented ToughCage®, the SiOPS® operator safety system, and onboard Niftylink® diagnostics.

Flexible Hybrid Power

For projects needing extended runtime or access across varying environments, our Gen2 Hybrid models combine battery operation with a Stage V diesel engine. These machines can switch between power sources automatically, offering quiet zero-emission running indoors and diesel-assisted flexibility outdoors.

Key features include:

• Zero-emission mode for quiet areas

• Onboard charging while in diesel mode

• Fuel-efficient and quiet operation

• Ideal for mixed indoor/outdoor estates

Low Weight, High Reach

Niftylift’s low-weight design not only reduces fuel consumption and improves transportability but also reduces ground pressure—ideal for working on paved or landscaped areas. Despite their lightweight build, our MEWPs deliver outstanding performance and height capability.

Whether it’s a routine inspection at a school or quarterly upkeep of a retail estate, Niftylift platforms help you keep maintenance work on schedule with minimal disruption. Built for real-world challenges, our MEWPs combine reliability, safety and performance to support your team in every task.
