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 Paignton shutter like for like is usually simple, but check with your council before changing its look, as planning rules differ across the UK.

Common questions

Do you cover Paignton?

Yes. ShopFronts UK works in Paignton and across Devon, including TQ1, TQ2, TQ3. Call 0800 088 6341 or send the form with your postcode and we will confirm the details.

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.

How often should a shop roller shutter be serviced?

Follow the maker's or installer's instructions, because the interval depends on the shutter and how often it runs. Many owners book one planned service a year. Powered shutters at work premises must be kept safe, so a written service record is worth keeping.

What do I do if my shop in Paignton 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.
