What our engineers check and fix
- Bumpers and guides. Worn bumpers and damaged wheel guides replaced.
- Lips and hinges. Structural damage to lips and hinges repaired so the platform supports loads safely.
- Clear pricing. Chargeable visits priced up front, fixed quotes for larger repairs.
- Hydraulic repairs. Leaks, drift and slow operation traced to their source and fixed.
- Safety devices. Toe guards, velocity fuses, struts and emergency stops restored.
Typical scopes of work
- Replacing a failed hydraulic power pack on a leveller whose platform no longer rises from its stored position.
- Straightening a bent leveller lip and fitting steel-faced bumpers so trailers stop short of the dock edge.
- Restoring a door-to-leveller interlock that has been bypassed and testing the bay sequence before handover.
Who is responsible for loading bay equipment at a site in Grantham?
The employer or occupier is. PUWER 1998 requires work equipment to be maintained and inspected, and the Workplace Regulations 1992 cover vehicle and pedestrian routes around the dock. In practice that means planned servicing of levellers and doors, daily pre-use checks and a clear procedure to stop trailers moving during loading.
Keeping your site running during the work
Service and repair visits in Grantham are booked around your shifts. Doors and shutters are taken out of use one at a time, so the rest of the site keeps working while each one is checked.

Questions from businesses in Grantham
Should we repair or replace our leveller in Grantham?
Repair is usually the first step. If the platform is cracked, the pit edges are broken or repairs are frequent, we price a replacement into the existing pit alongside the repair so you can compare.
How soon can you repair a leveller at our Grantham site?
We book repair visits as soon as we can and confirm the expected date when you call. We do not promise fixed response times. Photos and the leveller make help us bring likely parts.
Do you repair dock shelters across Lincolnshire?
Yes. We replace torn curtains, repair bent frames and scissor arms, fix inflatable shelter blowers and bags, and renew worn bumpers across Lincolnshire, always quoting a fixed price before ordering made-to-measure parts.
