Who is responsible for loading bay equipment at a site in Guildford?
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.
How the work is organised
Testing and repairs can mean closing an opening, so we agree timing and access with you before the visit, including early, late or weekend slots where the site needs them.

How soon can you repair a leveller at our Guildford 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.
Can you repair our dock leveller in Guildford if you did not install it?
Yes. We repair most makes of hydraulic and mechanical leveller. If original parts are no longer made, we look for compatible alternatives or explain why replacement into the existing pit may be better.

If it drifts, drops, leaks significantly, has cracked hinges or damaged toe guards, or will not return to stored position, stop using it and isolate it until it has been inspected and repaired.
