How we work on sites in Urmston
Step one is a survey at your site in Urmston, 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.
Servicing and repairs work slightly differently from installations. Visits to sites in Urmston are chargeable, and the price is set out in writing before anyone comes out. To help us prepare, send photos of the equipment and the fault. The engineer carries out the agreed work, flags anything else that needs attention and quotes it before touching it. Afterwards, a written report records the condition of each item.
- Access for deliveries, cranes or lifting equipment during installation
- Whether planning, building control or a building warrant may be needed
- Escape routes and pedestrian doors close to the bay
- Gaps around trailers where heated or chilled air escapes
- Safety edges, photocells and light curtains
- Anti-fall device on upward-opening doors
Regulations and approvals in England
Lift tables and dock lifts in Urmston may fall under LOLER, with thorough examination at least every 12 months, or every 6 months where people are lifted. It depends on the equipment and how it is used, and your insurer or competent person will confirm. Dock levellers are usually treated as work equipment under PUWER. We check what applies at survey.

Questions
Can you work outside our normal operating hours in Urmston?
Yes, by arrangement. Evening, night and weekend working can be planned so the installation causes as little disruption as possible to your loading schedule. Out-of-hours work can affect the price, so mention it at the survey and we will include it in the written quote. The agreed times are confirmed in the programme before the job starts.
Do you cover Urmston for loading bay work?
Yes. We take on loading bay work for businesses in Urmston and across Greater Manchester. We survey the site, provide a fixed written quote and manage the installation, with specialist installation engineers working under our management. Visits are arranged in advance at a time that suits your operation, and the same single contact stays with the job through to handover.
Can repairs be carried out outside our working hours?
Yes, by arrangement. Evening, night or weekend visits can be booked so that repairs and servicing at your Urmston site cause less disruption to loading. Out-of-hours attendance usually affects the price, so we include it when we agree the visit charge in writing. Tell us your shift pattern and the times when the dock is quietest.
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.
