Roller shutter repairs Consett

Repairing your Consett shutter like for like is usually simple, but check with your council before changing its look, as planning rules differ across the UK. Where a video is not enough, a charged diagnostic visit to your Consett premises finds the fault, and you know that cost in advance.

Consett is around 160 miles from our Birmingham base. Teams travel, so the distance is planned into the job and shown on your quote. Our Consett work takes in DH8, DH9, NE17. Neighbouring Stanley and Chester-le-Street are covered too.

Which faults do we deal with in Consett?

Bent or damaged lathsDamaged laths are slid out and replaced where the profile is available, without renewing the whole curtain.

Stuck open or closedWe find out whether the curtain, motor, brake or controls are the cause, then work out how to release it safely.

Controls and remotesKey switches, push buttons, receivers and handsets are tested and replaced, and limits are reset.

What does it cost in Consett?

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.

If a shutter at your Consett shop has stopped part way, do not force it, as a curtain under strain can bend or drop. Tell us your opening hours when you book and we will plan the Consett job around them, with overnight or weekend fitting where the work allows.

Common questions

Do you cover Consett?

Yes. ShopFronts UK works in Consett and across County Durham, including DH8, DH9, NE17. Call 0800 088 6341 or send the form with your postcode and we will confirm the details.

A vehicle hit my shutter. Can it be repaired?

Often yes. Damaged laths can be replaced, but a bent barrel or distorted guides may need new parts or a new shutter. We can provide photos and an itemised invoice for an insurer, although the outcome of any claim is for them to decide.

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.

Can you board up a shop in Consett out of hours?

Yes. The emergency line is open 24/7 for break-ins and smashed glass in Consett. We will tell you the arrival time when you call.
