Roller shutter repairs in Chelmsford

Landlords with shuttered units in Chelmsford and across Essex can move to planned servicing, rather than only calling when a shutter jams.

Engineer repairing a roller shutter motor

If a break-in has damaged a shutter in Chelmsford or elsewhere in Essex, ring our 24/7 emergency line and we'll tell you the arrival time when you call. A short video of your shutter running, from Chelmsford or anywhere in Essex, helps us work out whether the fault is the curtain, motor or controls.

Chelmsford is around 115 miles from our Birmingham base. Teams travel, so the distance is planned into the job and shown on your quote. Jobs in CM1 are planned alongside Billericay and Witham.

What can we sort out in Chelmsford?

Bent or damaged lathsDamaged laths are slid out and replaced where the profile is available, without renewing the whole curtain.
Stuck open or closedWe find out whether the curtain, motor, brake or controls are the cause, then work out how to release it safely.
Manual shutters and springsSpring-balanced shutters hold stored tension, so spring work is left to trained hands rather than attempted by staff.

What does it cost in Chelmsford?

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.

If a shutter at your Chelmsford shop has stopped part way, do not force it, as a curtain under strain can bend or drop. Most fitting can be done early, late or at weekends, so a Chelmsford shop can keep trading through the work.

Common questions

Can you come out to Chelmsford for a survey?

Yes. New shopfronts and full refurbishments get a free survey in Chelmsford. 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.

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 Chelmsford out of hours?

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