Roller shutter repairs in Lewes
Landlords with shuttered units in Lewes and across East Sussex can move to planned servicing, rather than only calling when a shutter jams.
If a shutter at your Lewes shop has stopped part way, do not force it, as a curtain under strain can bend or drop. Repairing your Lewes shutter like for like is usually simple, but check with your council before changing its look, as planning rules differ across the UK.
We are based in Great Barr, Birmingham, about 141 miles away, and send fitting teams across the South East. Travel is included in your written quote, not added afterwards. Our Lewes work takes in BN7. Neighbouring Brighton and Haywards Heath are covered too.
Which faults do we deal with in Lewes?
What does it cost in Lewes?
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 Lewes or anywhere in East Sussex, helps us work out whether the fault is the curtain, motor or controls. If you can't close, we phase the work: one bay at a time, with the unit left secure and weathertight every night.
Common questions
Do you work in BN7?
Yes. Lewes and the BN7 postcodes are covered, as is the rest of East Sussex. Send your postcode with your enquiry and we will come back to you with the next step.
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.
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.
Can you board up a shop in Lewes out of hours?
Yes. The emergency line is open 24/7 for break-ins and smashed glass in Lewes. We will tell you the arrival time when you call.
