Daryl BishopSEMA Approved Racking Inspector (SARI)
From first enquiry to clear findings.
Whether your next inspection is due or you want to discuss the condition of an existing installation, we’ll start by understanding your site.
Tell us about your site
Send your postcode, approximate number of bays and a few photos. We’ll confirm the scope, quote and arrangements with you.
An on-site inspection
We assess the accessible racking, looking for damage and other visible issues. Access requirements and any specialist areas are agreed in advance.
A written report
Receive the inspection findings and recommended actions, so you can prioritise what needs attention and keep a record for your site.
What does an inspection look at?
The agreed scope will reflect the type and layout of your racking. Typical inspection points include:
- Visible damage to uprights, bracing and beams.
- Beam connections, locking devices and visible fixings.
- Load notices and the way the racking is being used.
- Visible alterations and other conditions affecting the installation.
After the inspection
Findings you can act on.
The report records the condition observed within the agreed inspection scope and sets out the recommended next steps for your site.
See the detail
Photographs support the recorded findings, alongside observations about the installation and any access limitations.
Prioritise the next steps
Recommendations help your person responsible for racking safety plan action and maintain the site’s inspection records.
Tell us if you need a load-capacity assessment, design review or advice on a proposed alteration. We’ll confirm the appropriate scope; a condition inspection does not establish a new load rating.

Before you book.
What affects the cost of a racking inspection?
The number and type of bays, site layout, location and access requirements all affect the scope. Send an approximate bay count, site postcode and a few photos so we can provide a quotation for your installation.
What should I have ready for the visit?
Share your previous report, layout drawings and system information if available. Tell us about restricted areas, site inductions and any known damage. We’ll agree access arrangements before the visit; you can still enquire if some records are unavailable.
Do you inspect outside Kent?
Yes. We’re based in Kent and work across the UK. Send your site postcode so we can confirm arrangements and provide a quote.
Do I need to empty the racking?
Normal racking inspections are generally carried out from ground level. We’ll discuss access, visibility and any site-specific requirements before the visit, including whether any areas need additional access or unloading.
Can you help with repairs or alterations?
Yes. CWS also undertakes racking repairs and alterations. We can discuss any follow-on work separately once the inspection findings are available. Find out about repairs and alterations.
What if I’ve noticed damage already?
Report it promptly through your site’s racking safety procedure. If damage affects the safety of the racking, HSE guidance advises offloading it and preventing use until remedial work is completed. Contact us to discuss an assessment; don’t wait for your next scheduled inspection.
