How we work on sites in Mountsorrel
We keep the process simple for sites in Mountsorrel. A free survey tells us what the dock needs; a fixed written quote tells you what it will cost and what is included. We then organise the installation, with specialist engineers under our management and a programme agreed around your shifts. Night and weekend work is available by arrangement. Before we leave, the new equipment is tested, demonstrated and handed over with its documentation.
Our repair process in Mountsorrel has four parts. You describe the problem and send photos. We price the visit and confirm it in writing. The engineer attends, carries out the agreed work and quotes anything additional before doing it. You then receive a written report on the condition of the equipment and the work completed, which is useful for insurers, inspectors and your own planning.
- Lighting inside trailers and at the dock face
- Traffic routes for vehicles and separation of pedestrians
- Wind exposure at the dock, which affects door and shelter choice
- Bumper position and wear or damage on the dock face
- Door springs, cables and drums for wear or damage
- Track alignment, rollers and wall fixings
What do the rules in England mean for the work?
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 Mountsorrel, so we confirm the requirement for your project and check what applies at survey before recommending a door.

Questions
Can you work outside our normal operating hours in Mountsorrel?
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.
What details do you need from us to quote for loading bay work?
To get started, send the site address in Mountsorrel, 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.
How often should equipment at our Mountsorrel site be serviced?
It depends on how hard the equipment works and on the manufacturer's recommendations. A multi-shift dock with frequent trailer movements needs more attention than a door that opens a few times a day. We suggest a schedule after looking at the equipment and how it is used, and we can line visits up with your insurance inspections where that helps.
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.
Send a few photos of the dock and a short description of the problem, and we will come back to you about your Mountsorrel site.
