Roller shutter repairs in Nelson

Landlords with shuttered units in Nelson and across Lancashire can move to planned servicing, rather than only calling when a shutter jams.

Engineer repairing a roller shutter motor

Where a video is not enough, a charged diagnostic visit to your Nelson premises finds the fault, and you know that cost in advance. If a shutter at your Nelson shop has stopped part way, do not force it, as a curtain under strain can bend or drop.

Work in Nelson is run from Birmingham, roughly 90 miles away, with teams booked for the whole job so it is finished in one visit wherever possible. We cover BB8, BB9, BB10 and the surrounding streets, along with Burnley, Clitheroe and Accrington.

What do we fix in Nelson?

Motor failureA failed motor is tested and replaced with a unit sized for the curtain and barrel.
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 Nelson?

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 break-in has damaged a shutter in Nelson or elsewhere in Lancashire, ring our 24/7 emergency line and we'll tell you the arrival time when you call. 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

Do you cover Nelson?

Yes. ShopFronts UK works in Nelson and across Lancashire, including BB8, BB9, BB10. Call 0800 088 6341 or send the form with your postcode and we will confirm the details.

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.

What do I do if my shop in Nelson 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.
