Roller shutter repairs in Basildon
If a shutter at your Basildon shop has stopped part way, do not force it, as a curtain under strain can bend or drop.
Where a video is not enough, a charged diagnostic visit to your Basildon premises finds the fault, and you know that cost in advance. Repairing your Basildon 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 121 miles away, and send fitting teams across the East of England. Travel is included in your written quote, not added afterwards. We cover SS13, SS14, SS15 and the surrounding streets, along with Billericay, Brentwood and Thurrock.
Which faults do we deal with in Basildon?
What does it cost in Basildon?
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 Basildon or anywhere in Essex, helps us work out whether the fault is the curtain, motor or controls. We protect the pavement and your stock, keep the opening secure at the end of every shift, and leave the Basildon site clean.
Common questions
Can you come out to Basildon for a survey?
Yes. New shopfronts and full refurbishments get a free survey in Basildon. Repairs are a charged visit, and we tell you the cost of the visit before anyone comes out.
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 Basildon out of hours?
Yes. The emergency line is open 24/7 for break-ins and smashed glass in Basildon. We will tell you the arrival time when you call.
