Industrial Repair Services, Industrial Rigging, and Heavy Machinery Movers in West Jordan, Utah
Repair, rigging, moving, and transport from one crew, one contract, and one point of accountability.
West Jordan has been a machinery town since 1853, when Archibald Gardner dropped a water wheel into the Jordan River and started grinding grain. The mill still stands at Gardner Village. The machinery that actually feeds this city now sits a few miles west, in the tilt-up buildings strung along Mountain View Corridor, 7800 South, and the industrial blocks off 5600 West, and in the shops that have supported the Bingham Canyon operation on the other side of the Oquirrh foothills for generations.
Intermountain Machinery Service works in those buildings. We handle industrial repair services, industrial rigging, and machinery moving for manufacturers, distributors, processors, and fabricators across West Jordan and the south end of Salt Lake County. Same crews, same trucks, same accountability from the first phone call through the final alignment check.
Most of West Jordan's industrial space was built in the last thirty years, which sounds like it would make our work easier. It does not. New buildings fill up fast, and the operations inside them grow faster. The typical call we get from a West Jordan plant is not about a building that is too old. It is about a floor plan that made sense two expansions ago.
Industrial equipment repair, rigging, and transport usually come from three separate vendors, and the seams between them are where schedules die. Putting all three with one company protects your productivity, because nobody gets to blame the crew that came yesterday.

Industrial Repair Services for West Jordan Plants
A machine that stops is not the problem. A machine that stops and then waits four days for a diagnosis is the problem. Our industrial repair services are structured to compress that gap, and our experienced technicians arrive with the diagnostic approach and the tools to make the call on site rather than guessing from a photo.
Equipment repair is the core of what we do, and our skilled technicians cover almost every machine type a West Jordan industrial operation runs. Here is what our machine repair services actually include.
Industrial machine repair, overhauls, and rebuilds
Complete rebuilds of industrial machines that have drifted out of spec. We strip, measure, replace what is worn, and bring the machine back to its original geometry. Rebuilds beat replacement more often than most plant managers expect, and we will tell you honestly when they do not.
Mechanical repair
Gearboxes, bearings, shafting, couplings, clutches, and drives. Most mechanical failures announce themselves for weeks before they stop a line. When our machine techs are in your building, they notice.
Electrical repairs and industrial electronic repair
Panel work, industrial motors, servo motor faults, power supply issues, VFDs, sensors, and industrial electromechanical components. Electronic repair on industrial electronic equipment is a specialty, not a sideline, and we use calibrated electrical inspection tools and hold to industry standards on every job.
Hydraulic repair and pneumatics
Cylinders, valves, manifolds, pumps, and compressed air. If your presses are cycling slow or your press brake will not hold pressure, hydraulic repair is usually a one visit fix.
Machine tool service and CNC machines
Alignment, backlash correction, way work, and repair service on CNC machines and manual machine tool equipment alike. Machine qualification and machine upgrades keep an older machine competitive on tight tolerance work instead of pushing you into a capital purchase.
Conveyors and material handling
Conveyors are the quiet backbone of every distribution operation off Bangerter Highway. We repair drives, belts, rollers, chain, transfers, and controls, and we schedule the work for the gap between shifts.
Welding, fabrication, and machine shop capability
Our machine shop lets us build what nobody stocks. Welding and fabrication in carbon steel and stainless steel, guards, frames, chutes, hoppers, and replacement parts cut to your drawing. Stainless steel work for food grade and clean environments is routine.
Parts, consumables, and strategic sourcing
We are a versatile supplier as well as a repair house. Machine consumables, quality parts, and obsolete components move through our strategic sourcing and supply chain management network so your maintenance planner is not the one making thirty phone calls.
Every industrial repair gets run under load before we leave, and you get a written record of what failed, what we did, and what to watch.
Preventative Maintenance and Production Support
Reactive repair is the most expensive way to own equipment. It is also the default, because maintenance is the first thing that gets pushed when a plant is busy, and West Jordan plants are busy.
Our preventative maintenance programs are built to survive a busy quarter. We come to you on a set rhythm, we document condition, and we flag what is trending wrong before it becomes an emergency. A downtime mitigation assessment maps your equipment against what a stoppage would actually cost, so the maintenance budget goes where it protects the most revenue.
Preventive maintenance and production support includes:
- Scheduled inspection routes built around your shift calendar
- Vibration, alignment, and thermal checks on critical drives
- Lubrication programs and consumables management
- Field service coverage during peak season and new product ramps
- Critical spare parts planning and on shelf inventory recommendations
- Machinery sales and equipment replacement guidance when a rebuild stops making financial sense
The goal is boring equipment. Boring equipment makes money.
Industrial Rigging in West Jordan, Utah
Rigging is a planning trade that happens to involve steel. The lift itself is the short part. Everything that makes the lift safe happens days earlier.
IMS provides industrial rigging services throughout the Jordan Valley, from single machine sets to full heavy industrial rigging campaigns. Our riggers are career industrial rigging professionals, and our rigging service professionals plan every rigging project on paper before a single strap comes off the truck. Specialized rigging for awkward, top heavy, or unusually fragile industrial equipment is where that planning earns its keep.
Expert rigging project planning
Route surveys, floor capacity review, dock and door dimensions, overhead clearances, and a written lift plan. West Jordan adds its own wrinkle here. Bangerter Highway and Mountain View Corridor are excellent oversize routes, but interchange work and time of day restrictions change constantly, so we confirm permits and routing with UDOT and Salt Lake County rather than assuming last year's route still works.
Heavy rigging and heavy equipment rigging
Gantries, skates, jacking and skidding systems, air casters, and Versa-Lifts. Most heavy equipment rigging inside a West Jordan tilt-up happens under a 28 foot ceiling with sprinkler mains in the way, which rules out half the obvious solutions and is exactly why planning matters.
Crane rigging, crane service, and crane rental
We arrange crane service, crane rental, and mobile crane service when a load has to go over the building instead of through it. Crane rigging on the west side of the valley means watching afternoon wind coming off the Oquirrh Mountains, so we book critical picks early in the day.
Seamless machinery installation and equipment installation
Setting is not the same as placing. We shim, grout, level, align, and anchor, then verify. Equipment installation includes coordination with your electrical and mechanical contractors so the machine runs the week it lands, not the month after.
Heavy equipment loading and forklift moving service
Heavy equipment loading and unloading at the dock, plus forklift moving service for repositions inside a building. Heavy equipment moving across a warehouse floor still deserves a plan.
Electrical transformer moving services
Transformers, switchgear, and substation equipment set with the clearance and care that class of equipment requires.
Additional rigging services
Custom crating, machinery foundations, structural bases, CAD work and layout design, and production flow mapping. We would rather tell you the floor will not hold it during design than after delivery.
Our rigging contractors work to industry standards on every rigging job, and safety is the first line item on every plan we write, not a signature at the end. Bring our riggers in while you are still evaluating the machine and the rigging services quote becomes a design input instead of a surprise.
Heavy Machinery Movers Serving West Jordan and the Jordan Valley
Growth is the story of this part of Salt Lake County, and growth means machines get moved. As heavy machinery movers, IMS handles specialized machinery moving from the disassembly to the startup, so nothing gets lost between a rigging company, a trucking company, and an installer who all showed up on different days.
Our machinery moving services cover:
Manufacturing plant relocation
Full manufacturing plant relocation, sequenced so production never fully stops if we can help it, then closed out with manufacturing equipment installation. We move companies from older Salt Lake City and Midvale space into West Jordan, from West Jordan out to larger buildings in Herriman or the west side of the valley, and between buildings in the same industrial park.
In plant moves and reconfiguration
Opening a lane, adding a cell, straightening a line, or making room for a new machine that is already on a boat. In plant equipment relocation is our most requested moving service and the one where planning saves the most money.
Industrial moving services and single machine moves
One machine or one department, packed, protected, transported, reinstalled, and aligned.
Equipment transport across the Intermountain West
Flatbed, step deck, and oversize load equipment transport, Conex loading and container work, and hot shot runs when moving equipment fast is the whole point. West Jordan sits inside easy reach of I-15, I-80, and the airport freight corridor, which makes it one of the better staging points in the state for a long haul.
How a West Jordan Project Runs
Site walk
We come to your building, look at the machine, the route, the floor, and the doors, and ask the questions that surface the surprises.
Written plan and quote
Scope, sequence, equipment list, crew size, timeline, and price. You approve before anything moves.
Execution
Our riggers, our millwrights, and our specialized equipment, on the schedule we agreed to. If something changes on site, you know that day, not on the invoice.
Verification and handoff
Level, alignment, and function verified under power. Documentation delivered. We stay until it runs.
