How we work on sites in Wellington
Before anything is ordered, we visit your site in Wellington for a free survey and then send a written quote with a fixed price. From that point we manage the installation, coordinating delivery, access and any other trades. Fitting is done by specialist installation engineers engaged and managed by us, at times that suit your operation, including out of hours where agreed. You get a tested installation, a demonstration for your team and the manufacturer documentation.
A chargeable visit, a price agreed in advance and a written report afterwards: that is our approach to loading bay repairs in Wellington. Photos of the fault, sent before the visit, help us diagnose it and bring suitable parts. Should the job turn out bigger than expected, the extra work is quoted and approved by you before it happens, so there are no surprises on the invoice.

Regulations and approvals 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 Wellington, so we confirm the requirement for your project and check what applies at survey before recommending a door.

Questions
Do you cover Wellington for loading bay work?
Yes. We take on loading bay work for businesses in Wellington and across Shropshire. 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.
What details do you need from us to quote for loading bay work?
To get started, send the site address in Wellington, 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.
What is the difference between servicing and a statutory inspection?
Servicing keeps equipment working: cleaning, adjusting, lubricating and replacing worn parts. A statutory inspection or thorough examination is a separate check by a competent person, often arranged through your engineering insurer. Dock levellers are commonly inspected under PUWER at 12-month intervals, and lift tables may need LOLER thorough examination, depending on the equipment and how it is used. Your insurer or competent person will confirm what applies.
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 Wellington site.
