Where a video is not enough, a charged diagnostic visit to your Newton Aycliffe premises finds the fault, and you know that cost in advance. Landlords with shuttered units in Newton Aycliffe and across County Durham can move to planned servicing, rather than only calling when a shutter jams.

We are based in Great Barr, Birmingham, about 144 miles away, and send fitting teams across the North East. Travel is included in your written quote, not added afterwards. We cover DL4, DL5, DL14 and the surrounding streets, along with Bishop Auckland, Spennymoor and Darlington.

What can we sort out in Newton Aycliffe?

Controls and remotesKey switches, push buttons, receivers and handsets are tested and replaced, and limits are reset.
Bent or damaged lathsDamaged laths are slid out and replaced where the profile is available, without renewing the whole curtain.
Manual shutters and springsSpring-balanced shutters hold stored tension, so spring work is left to trained hands rather than attempted by staff.

What does it cost in Newton Aycliffe?

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.

A short video of your shutter running, from Newton Aycliffe or anywhere in County Durham, helps us work out whether the fault is the curtain, motor or controls. Tell us your opening hours when you book and we will plan the Newton Aycliffe job around them, with overnight or weekend fitting where the work allows.

Common questions

Do you cover Newton Aycliffe?

Yes. ShopFronts UK works in Newton Aycliffe and across County Durham, including DL4, DL5, DL14. Call 0800 088 6341 or send the form with your postcode and we will confirm the details.

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.

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.

What do I do if my shop in Newton Aycliffe 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.
