How we work on sites in Lichfield
We never ask you to commit before you have a fixed price. A free survey at your Lichfield site comes first, followed by a written quote. When the order goes ahead, we plan the installation around your operation, book any out-of-hours working you need and manage the specialist installation engineers on site. The job ends with a full test, a run-through for the people who will use the equipment and a set of handover documents.
Every visit to a site in Lichfield begins with an agreed price. The charge is confirmed in writing before an engineer attends, so the cost is clear from the outset. Photos of the fault, the data plate and the surrounding area make diagnosis easier. Extra work found during the visit is priced and approved before it is done. A written report then sets out what was found, what was fixed and what still needs attention.
- Temperature requirements for chilled, frozen or ambient goods
- Age and condition of the equipment already in place
- Yard gradient and the slope of the approach to the dock
- Control positions, isolators and any existing interlocks
- Pit frame welds, platform cracks and structural damage
- Inflatable shelter fans, airbags and control function
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 Lichfield, 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 Lichfield?
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.
Will you deal with building control and planning for a project in Lichfield?
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.
What information helps before a repair visit?
Photos or a short video of the fault are the most useful thing you can send, along with the make and model from the data plate, a description of what happens when the equipment is operated and any error codes. For a site in Lichfield, also tell us about access, parking and site rules. With that, we can price the visit and bring the likely parts.
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.
