Roller shutter repairs in Ashton-under-Lyne

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

Engineer repairing a roller shutter motor

If a shutter at your Ashton-under-Lyne shop has stopped part way, do not force it, as a curtain under strain can bend or drop. If a break-in has damaged a shutter in Ashton-under-Lyne or elsewhere in Greater Manchester, ring our 24/7 emergency line and we'll tell you the arrival time when you call.

We are based in Great Barr, Birmingham, about 66 miles away, and send fitting teams across the North West. Travel is included in your written quote, not added afterwards. Postcodes we work in around here include M43, OL6, OL7, and we also cover Failsworth, Oldham and Manchester nearby.

Which faults do we deal with in Ashton-under-Lyne?

Curtain out of its guidesImpact and wear can push the curtain out of the guide rails. We refit it and straighten or replace the guides.
Stuck open or closedWe find out whether the curtain, motor, brake or controls are the cause, then work out how to release it safely.
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 Ashton-under-Lyne?

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.

Landlords with shuttered units in Ashton-under-Lyne and across Greater Manchester can move to planned servicing, rather than only calling when a shutter jams. Most fitting can be done early, late or at weekends, so an Ashton-under-Lyne shop can keep trading through the work.

Common questions

Do you work in M43, OL6, OL7?

Yes. Ashton-under-Lyne and the M43, OL6, OL7 postcodes are covered, as is the rest of Greater Manchester. Send your postcode with your enquiry and we will come back to you with the next step.

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.

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.

What do I do if my shop in Ashton-under-Lyne is broken into?

Call the police first if a crime is in progress, then call our 24/7 line on 0800 088 6341. We will tell you the arrival time when you call, and board up or reglaze so the premises are secure.
