Engineer repairing a roller shutter motor

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

Work in Preston is run from Birmingham, roughly 91 miles away, with teams booked for the whole job so it is finished in one visit wherever possible. Jobs in PR1, PR2 are planned alongside Leyland and Chorley.

What can we sort out in Preston?

Manual shutters and springsSpring-balanced shutters hold stored tension, so spring work is left to trained hands rather than attempted by staff.
Bent or damaged lathsDamaged laths are slid out and replaced where the profile is available, without renewing the whole curtain.
Controls and remotesKey switches, push buttons, receivers and handsets are tested and replaced, and limits are reset.

What does it cost in Preston?

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.

Repairing your Preston shutter like for like is usually simple, but check with your council before changing its look, as planning rules differ across the UK. Most fitting can be done early, late or at weekends, so a Preston shop can keep trading through the work.

Common questions

Do you work in PR1, PR2?

Yes. Preston and the PR1, PR2 postcodes are covered, as is the rest of Lancashire. Send your postcode with your enquiry and we will come back to you with the next step.

How often should a shop roller shutter be serviced?

Follow the maker's or installer's instructions, because the interval depends on the shutter and how often it runs. Many owners book one planned service a year. Powered shutters at work premises must be kept safe, so a written service record is worth keeping.

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 Preston out of hours?

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