Roller shutter repairs in Thurrock

Repairing your Thurrock shutter like for like is usually simple, but check with your council before changing its look, as planning rules differ across the UK.

If a shutter at your Thurrock 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 Thurrock premises finds the fault, and you know that cost in advance.

We are based in Great Barr, Birmingham, about 120 miles away, and send fitting teams across the East of England. Travel is included in your written quote, not added afterwards. Postcodes we work in around here include RM16, RM17, RM18, and we also cover Grays, Gravesend and Dartford nearby.

Which faults do we deal with in Thurrock?

Motor failureA failed motor is tested and replaced with a unit sized for the curtain and barrel.
Controls and remotesKey switches, push buttons, receivers and handsets are tested and replaced, and limits are reset.
Bent or damaged lathsDamaged laths are slid out and replaced where the profile is available, without renewing the whole curtain.

What does it cost in Thurrock?

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 Thurrock or anywhere in Essex, 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.
