How we work across Perth and Kinross
Here is what happens after you contact us about a site in Perth and Kinross. We arrange a free survey, measure up and send a fixed written quote. If you go ahead, we manage the whole job, including ordering, delivery and coordination with your site team. Specialist installation engineers working under our management do the fitting, at times built around your loading schedule, with out-of-hours work by arrangement. Testing and handover documents close the job.
Repair and service visits in Perth and Kinross are chargeable, and we agree the price with you in writing before anyone attends. Photos or a short video of the fault help us send the right engineer with the right parts. If the visit uncovers more work than expected, we quote it and wait for your approval before going ahead. After every visit you receive a written report on what was found and done.
- Age and condition of the equipment already in place
- Traffic routes for vehicles and separation of pedestrians
- Bumper position and wear or damage on the dock face
- Condition of any existing leveller pit, kerb angles and pit drainage

- Forklift and pallet truck loads crossing the leveller platform
Which rules apply in Scotland?
Lift tables at Scottish sites are lifting equipment under LOLER, which means thorough examination at least every 12 months, or every 6 months if people are lifted, depending on the equipment and its use. For a site in Perth and Kinross, your insurer or competent person will confirm the interval, and we check what applies at survey.

Questions
Will you deal with building control and planning for a project in Perth and Kinross?
We check at survey whether the work is likely to need approval. Forming a new opening or dock pit may need Building Regulations approval, a building warrant or building control approval, depending on the nation, and external structures such as loading houses can need planning permission. Where approval is needed, we explain what is involved, work with your designer or agent, and build it into the programme.
Which building and safety rules apply to a site in Perth and Kinross?
It depends on which UK nation the site is in. England and Wales use Building Regulations approval, Scotland uses building warrants and Northern Ireland uses building control approval from the council. Workplace safety is regulated by HSE in Great Britain and HSENI in Northern Ireland, and energy rules differ between nations. For your site in Perth and Kinross, we check what applies at survey and design to it.
How often should equipment at our Perth and Kinross 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.
