If a break-in has damaged a shutter in Deal or elsewhere in Kent, ring our 24/7 emergency line and we'll tell you the arrival time when you call. Repairing your Deal shutter like for like is usually simple, but check with your council before changing its look, as planning rules differ across the UK.

Work in Deal is run from Birmingham, roughly 168 miles away, with teams booked for the whole job so it is finished in one visit wherever possible. Postcodes we work in around here include CT13, CT14, CT15, and we also cover Dover, Ramsgate and Margate nearby.

Which faults do we deal with in Deal?

Stuck open or closedWe find out whether the curtain, motor, brake or controls are the cause, then work out how to release it safely.
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.
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 Deal?

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 Deal or anywhere in Kent, helps us work out whether the fault is the curtain, motor or controls. We protect the pavement and your stock, keep the opening secure at the end of every shift, and leave the Deal site clean.

Common questions

Do you work in CT13, CT14, CT15?

Yes. Deal and the CT13, CT14, CT15 postcodes are covered, as is the rest of Kent. 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.

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 you board up a shop in Deal out of hours?

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