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

Engineer repairing a roller shutter motor

Repairing your Leicester shutter like for like is usually simple, but check with your council before changing its look, as planning rules differ across the UK. Landlords with shuttered units in Leicester and across Leicestershire can move to planned servicing, rather than only calling when a shutter jams.

Leicester is about 33 miles from our Great Barr base in Birmingham, so surveys are easy to plan. We cover LE1, LE3, LE4 and the surrounding streets, along with Loughborough, Coalville and Hinckley.

What do we fix in Leicester?

Stuck open or closedWe find out whether the curtain, motor, brake or controls are the cause, then work out how to release it safely.
Bent or damaged lathsDamaged laths are slid out and replaced where the profile is available, without renewing the whole curtain.
Motor failureA failed motor is tested and replaced with a unit sized for the curtain and barrel.

What does it cost in Leicester?

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 Leicester or anywhere in Leicestershire, helps us work out whether the fault is the curtain, motor or controls. Tell us your opening hours when you book and we will plan the Leicester job around them, with overnight or weekend fitting where the work allows.

Common questions

Can you come out to Leicester for a survey?

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

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.

A vehicle hit my shutter. Can it be repaired?

Often yes. Damaged laths can be replaced, but a bent barrel or distorted guides may need new parts or a new shutter. We can provide photos and an itemised invoice for an insurer, although the outcome of any claim is for them to decide.

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

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