How we work on sites in Wickford
Step one is a survey at your site in Wickford, which costs nothing and carries no obligation. Step two is a written quote with a fixed price and a clear scope. Step three is installation, scheduled around your operation and carried out by specialist installation engineers working under our management, including evenings or weekends if agreed. Step four is handover, when the equipment is tested in front of you and the paperwork is passed over.
Before a repair visit in Wickford, we ask three things: what the equipment is, what it is doing wrong and whether you can send photos. With that, we price the visit and confirm it in writing, and nobody attends until you agree. If the engineer finds further faults, they are quoted first and only fixed with your approval. Each visit ends with a written report of findings and work done.
- Traffic routes for vehicles and separation of pedestrians
- Working hours, shift patterns and windows for out-of-hours work
- Access for deliveries, cranes or lifting equipment during installation
- Whether planning, building control or a building warrant may be needed
- Inflatable shelter fans, airbags and control function
- Leveller toe guards and side skirting, where fitted
Which rules apply in England?
In England, Approved Document L (2021) sets a limiting U-value of 1.3 W/m²K for vehicle access and similar large doors in new and replacement work. That shapes door specification for sites in Wickford, so we confirm the requirement for your project and check what applies at survey before recommending a door.

Questions
Is the site survey in Wickford free?
Yes. For new installations, replacements, upgrades, conversions and complete bays, the site survey and written quote are free and come with no obligation. The survey lets us measure the openings, check the dock and structure, and understand how the bay is used, so the quote reflects your site. Repair and servicing visits are different: they are chargeable, with the price agreed before anyone attends.
What details do you need from us to quote for loading bay work?
To get started, send the site address in Wickford, the number of bays or openings, approximate sizes, and photos of the dock from inside and outside. Tell us what vehicles you load, what goods you handle and any temperature requirements. Drawings help on new builds. We then arrange the free survey and confirm the details before the written quote is issued.
Do you provide a written report after each visit?
Yes. After every repair or service visit to a site in Wickford, you receive a written report setting out what was checked, what was found, what work was carried out and anything that still needs attention, with a quote for further work where needed. The report is useful for your maintenance records and for discussions with your insurer or inspector.
How much does loading bay work cost?
It depends on what you need. Our published guide prices run from £120 per dock bumper to £32,000 per loading house, and a complete bay with door, leveller, shelter and safety kit is typically £13,500 to £26,000 per bay, all excluding VAT. See the prices page for every item.
