Roller shutter repairs Portsmouth

If a break-in has damaged a shutter in Portsmouth or elsewhere in Hampshire, ring our 24/7 emergency line and we'll tell you the arrival time when you call. Where a video is not enough, a charged diagnostic visit to your Portsmouth premises finds the fault, and you know that cost in advance.

Portsmouth is around 125 miles from our Birmingham base. Teams travel, so the distance is planned into the job and shown on your quote. Jobs in PO1, PO2, PO4 are planned alongside Gosport and Fareham.

What do we fix in Portsmouth?

Manual shutters and springsSpring-balanced shutters hold stored tension, so spring work is left to trained hands rather than attempted by staff.

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.

What does it cost in Portsmouth?

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 Portsmouth shop has stopped part way, do not force it, as a curtain under strain can bend or drop. If you can't close, we phase the work: one bay at a time, with the unit left secure and weathertight every night.

Common questions

Can you come out to Portsmouth for a survey?

Yes. New shopfronts and full refurbishments get a free survey in Portsmouth. Repairs are a charged visit, and we tell you the cost of the visit before anyone comes out.

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 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 board up a shop in Portsmouth out of hours?

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