Roller shutter repairs in Bracknell

Where a video is not enough, a charged diagnostic visit to your Bracknell premises finds the fault, and you know that cost in advance.

Engineer repairing a roller shutter motor

If a shutter at your Bracknell shop has stopped part way, do not force it, as a curtain under strain can bend or drop. A short video of your shutter running, from Bracknell or anywhere in Berkshire, helps us work out whether the fault is the curtain, motor or controls.

Bracknell is around 92 miles from our Birmingham base. Teams travel, so the distance is planned into the job and shown on your quote. We cover RG12 and the surrounding streets, along with Wokingham, Sandhurst and Camberley.

What do we fix in Bracknell?

Curtain out of its guidesImpact and wear can push the curtain out of the guide rails. We refit it and straighten or replace the guides.
Motor failureA failed motor is tested and replaced with a unit sized for the curtain and barrel.
Controls and remotesKey switches, push buttons, receivers and handsets are tested and replaced, and limits are reset.

What does it cost in Bracknell?

A roller shutter repair costs £125 to £695 ex VAT for most repairs. A few damaged laths or a control fault sit at the lower end, and a new motor towards the top. If a video of the shutter running does not show the cause, we book a charged diagnostic visit, from £125 ex VAT. You are told that figure before we come out.

Repairing your Bracknell shutter like for like is usually simple, but check with your council before changing its look, as planning rules differ across the UK. If you can't close, we phase the work: one bay at a time, with the unit left secure and weathertight every night.

Common questions

Do you work in RG12?

Yes. Bracknell and the RG12 postcodes are covered, as is the rest of Berkshire. Send your postcode with your enquiry and we will come back to you with the next step.

Can I open my shutter by hand if the motor fails?

Usually yes, if it has a manual override such as a crank handle or hand chain. Follow the maker's instructions and do not force it. If there is no override or the curtain has jammed, leave it alone, because forcing it can bend laths or drop the curtain.

Do I need planning permission to repair a shutter?

Usually not. A like-for-like repair in England does not normally need planning permission, although fitting a new external shutter often does. Changing the curtain type or the box could count as a change, so check first, as rules differ in Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland.

What do I do if my shop in Bracknell is broken into?

Call the police first if a crime is in progress, then call our 24/7 line on 0800 088 6341. We will tell you the arrival time when you call, and board up or reglaze so the premises are secure.
