Real is an appropriate and uplifting firstname for a contractor and excavator whokeeps his promises, does his work well andhas earned a stellar reputation for heavyiron and crane work in northern Vermontand New Hampshire.In 2014, Real Desrochers and his wife

Denise will celebrate the 40th anniversaryof Desrochers Excavating Inc. and its fam-ily of companies, Desrochers Crane ServiceInc., Desrochers Bulk Service Inc. andDesrochers Barn Supply & Equipment Inc.With headquarters in Derby, Vt.,

Desrochers specializes in heavy movingand lifting.The company was founded in 1974

when the man that Real Desrochers wasworking for was going out of business. “He offered dad one of two things: a boat

or a 6-ton Scott Midland crane,” saidRobert Desrochers, the oldest son of Realand Denise, who along with brothers Reneand Randy help run the company.“Dad, being the person he is, took the

crane. Later on, he bought a small excava-tion company from Robert Taplin,” saidRobert. “Mr. Taplin stuck by my Dad untilhis death, giving him advice and beingsomeone who Dad could bounce ideas offof who would not go running aroundspreading it all over town.”Real Desrochers first learned the trade

from Taplin with his brother Joe andDenise’s brother Mark. “Luckily, my father made some good

choices in the beginning, as far as employ-ees. These first guys stuck by my dad for years,” said Robert.“They were the type of guys who took pride in what they did— whatever it was — cellar holes, preparing grades for slabsor landscaping. From what I can remember, the bread andbutter, at first were residential: Sewer systems, water linesand driveways. My uncles Mark and Joe ran the smallcrane.”

Three Sons, Three CranesRobert, Rene and Randy joined the company in the 1980s

along with three, new, larger cranes, with lifting capacities of15, 23 and 30-tons (13.6, 23.6, 27.2 t). The Desrochers haveadded a steady line of new equipment with up to five work-ing cranes of various capacities to handle a wide variety of

lifting jobs.As the prefab building business boomed, two larger cranes

were added in 2003 and 2005 — a 90-ton (81.6 t) and aLink-Belt 50-ton (45.4 t) model.The Desrochers family has moved houses, barns, diners,

buildings, bridges and raised rafters, steel buildings andexpectations in the woods of northern Vermont.Back in the 1980s the Desrochers tore down the area’s

drive-in theater to usher in three new businesses.

Projects, Past and PresentNumerous projects in the last decade have included:• The Adelphia project: The new television building for

Adelphia at its tower site consisted of eight 8-ft. (2.4 m) wideconcrete structures each weighing 56,000 lbs. (25,401 kg).The sections arrived on tractor-trailers and were flipped dueto lying on their side for transport. Each one was lifted,moved and installed onto a new foundation.• Setting steel for a new building addition at Presby

Environmental facility in Whitehill, N.H.• A historic barn moved from Irasburg, Vt., to Derby.• On a Taylor Made home in Troy, Vt.: Desrochers hoist-

ed building materials used in a project built down into agully, where the job site was located. The home was built ona ledge along a river, with a set of stairs from the elevatedgarage down to the home site.• Miss Newport Diner relocation: “The historic Miss

Newport Diner was part of many locals’ daily routine sincethe 1950s,” said Robert. “We moved it off its foundation

with our 90-ton Grove crane and moved it to its first stop inNew Hampshire with our drop deck trailer.”• At a new Groveton, N.H. sporting goods store, the 90-

ton crane was used to lift into place an entire 50 x 38-ft. (15.2x 11.6 m) timber frame facade, costing $54,000 for woodand weighing 13,000 lbs. (5,896.7 kg).• The Island Pond project: Desrochers used the 90-ton

Grove crane, (teaming with a Bedford, N.H. crane compa-ny), to lift both ends of a new 114-ft.-long (34.7m) pedestri-an bridge. They set it in place over a set of railroad tracks thathad separated the villages of Upper and Lower Island Pondsince 1974 (their founding year), when the original pedestri-

an bridge had been torn down due to age.• A 100-year anniversary remodeling project at St. Mary’s

Church in Newport, N.H., lifting an aerial basket used dur-ing the washing and re-grouting of large granite blocks.• Jay Peak Ski Resort: Desrochers have participated in

numerous projects, including lifting and removing 60-personcapacity cars from the old tramway and replacing them withnew, larger, more modern cars. “Currently, we are part of the Jay Peak expansion, setting

wall panels and rafters on the newest hotel. We are also set-ting the numerous modular homes that have been fabricatedin the last three years by another Vermont company,Huntington Homes, in East Montpelier and set at Jay Peak,”said Robert. “Our 90-ton crane is now lifting steel beams forthe construction of a new school at Dartmouth-HitchcockMedical Center. We are setting steel at the expansion atNorwich University and the new Augusta, MaineCourthouse.”In addition, Desrochers is hard at work excavating new

substations in Jay and Derby, Vt.; excavating and farm salesand installation in Chelsea, Vt.; and excavating and craneservice regarding cell tower work in Plainfield and St.Albans, Vt.; along with working with general contractorsand sub-contractors.

Desrochers Family Stays Involved With Community

Robert. The company’s web site is replete with

kind words and testimonials.“In my 20 years in the broadcast and com-

munications industry, Desrochers CraneService is one of the finest companies I havedealt with. At the heart of this are good peo-ple who perform outstanding work with adesire to please the customer like no other.Their willingness to work with you andrearrange their schedule at the last minutewhen possible to accommodate last-minuteneeds is second to none,” said Eli Pitts, vicepresident of Prescott Tower Services LTD.“Word of mouth is greatly important. We

pride ourselves on repeat customers,” saidRobert. “Our company was part of the 100-year anniversary renovation of St. Mary’sChurch in Newport. The greatest obstacle atthe time was the reach and ability to get tothe rear of the two towers. So, we came upwith a solution. We, along with others,developed a basket we could mount to one ofour cranes that would pivot 150 degrees and

pivot up and down 60 degrees.”The Desrochers family are true neighbors,

vital community members and, clearly,Vermonters. Real, Rene and Robert aremembers of the Elks. Real does much for hislocal church. Robert has been part of localRotary functions and participates as an annu-al volunteer in the area’s Winterfest.“For several years, my brother Rene has

set the ducks into the river with a crane forthe Rotary Duck Regatta,” said Robert. On the eve of its 40th anniversary, brother

Randy’s two children are of age to help setthe ducks with their Dad, rather than run thecrane. But is a third generation of Desrochersin the wings?“My brother Randy has two children, both

boys, but they are too young to call,” saidRobert. For more information, call 802/766-4732,

800/287-4732 or visitwww.desrochersinc.com.
