Roller shutter repairs in Stretford

Repairing your Stretford 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

Landlords with shuttered units in Stretford and across Greater Manchester can move to planned servicing, rather than only calling when a shutter jams. A short video of your shutter running, from Stretford or anywhere in Greater Manchester, helps us work out whether the fault is the curtain, motor or controls.

Work in Stretford is run from Birmingham, roughly 65 miles away, with teams booked for the whole job so it is finished in one visit wherever possible. Our Stretford work takes in M17, M21, M32. Neighbouring Urmston and Sale are covered too.

Which faults do we deal with in Stretford?

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.
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.

What does it cost in Stretford?

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 Stretford shop has stopped part way, do not force it, as a curtain under strain can bend or drop. Tell us your opening hours when you book and we will plan the Stretford job around them, with overnight or weekend fitting where the work allows.

Common questions

Do you work in M17, M21, M32?

Yes. Stretford and the M17, M21, M32 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.

Can I open my shutter by hand if the motor fails?

Usually yes, if it has a manual override such as a crank handle or hand chain. Follow the maker's instructions and do not force it. If there is no override or the curtain has jammed, leave it alone, because forcing it can bend laths or drop the curtain.

Can you repair any make of shutter?

Many faults can be repaired on most makes, because laths, guides, motors and controls come from common component suppliers. Where a part has been discontinued, we look for a compatible alternative and tell you before ordering it.

Can you board up a shop in Stretford out of hours?

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