About Us

Built by a Tradesman. Trusted by Professionals

Western New York Equipment Specialists was founded with a simple idea to give local contractors, electricians, and builders a better way to buy and rent lift equipment.

After working as an electrician across Western New York, out founder spent countless hours in boom lifts, scissor lifts, and manlifts. He knew firshand what made a good machine and how hard it could be to find honest advice and rekuavke equipment when you really needed it.

That experience inspired the start of Western New York Equipment Speciallists, a business builr on knowledge from the feild, not just for the sales floor. We don’t just sell lifts; we use them; test them; and stand behind them.

Meet Our Founder

“I’ve been an electrician for years. I’ve used just about every type of lift out there, from small indoor scissor lifts to massive booms 90 feet up. I started this company because I  wanted to help other contractors get the right equipment without the guesswork. We treat every customer like a teammate because we’re all out here trying to get the job done safely and efficiently.”
