Roller shutter repairs in Weymouth

A short video of your shutter running, from Weymouth or anywhere in Dorset, helps us work out whether the fault is the curtain, motor or controls.

Engineer repairing a roller shutter motor

If a shutter at your Weymouth shop has stopped part way, do not force it, as a curtain under strain can bend or drop. Repairing your Weymouth shutter like for like is usually simple, but check with your council before changing its look, as planning rules differ across the UK.

Weymouth is around 135 miles from our Birmingham base. Teams travel, so the distance is planned into the job and shown on your quote. We cover DT3, DT4 and the surrounding streets, along with Dorchester, Poole and Yeovil.

What can we sort out in Weymouth?

Controls and remotesKey switches, push buttons, receivers and handsets are tested and replaced, and limits are reset.
Motor failureA failed motor is tested and replaced with a unit sized for the curtain and barrel.
Stuck open or closedWe find out whether the curtain, motor, brake or controls are the cause, then work out how to release it safely.

What does it cost in Weymouth?

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.

Landlords with shuttered units in Weymouth and across Dorset can move to planned servicing, rather than only calling when a shutter jams. Tell us your opening hours when you book and we will plan the Weymouth job around them, with overnight or weekend fitting where the work allows.

Common questions

Do you work in DT3, DT4?

Yes. Weymouth and the DT3, DT4 postcodes are covered, as is the rest of Dorset. 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 Weymouth 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.
