Engineer repairing a roller shutter motor

Repairing your Eastbourne shutter like for like is usually simple, but check with your council before changing its look, as planning rules differ across the UK. A short video of your shutter running, from Eastbourne or anywhere in East Sussex, helps us work out whether the fault is the curtain, motor or controls.

We are based in Great Barr, Birmingham, about 154 miles away, and send fitting teams across the South East. Travel is included in your written quote, not added afterwards. We cover BN20, BN21, BN23 and the surrounding streets, along with Lewes, Hastings and Brighton.

What do we fix in Eastbourne?

Manual shutters and springsSpring-balanced shutters hold stored tension, so spring work is left to trained hands rather than attempted by staff.
Controls and remotesKey switches, push buttons, receivers and handsets are tested and replaced, and limits are reset.
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 Eastbourne?

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.

Where a video is not enough, a charged diagnostic visit to your Eastbourne premises finds the fault, and you know that cost in advance. We protect the pavement and your stock, keep the opening secure at the end of every shift, and leave the Eastbourne site clean.

Common questions

Can you come out to Eastbourne for a survey?

Yes. New shopfronts and full refurbishments get a free survey in Eastbourne. Repairs are a charged visit, and we tell you the cost of the visit before anyone comes out.

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.

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.

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

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