Roller shutter repairs in Loughborough
Landlords with shuttered units in Loughborough and across Leicestershire can move to planned servicing, rather than only calling when a shutter jams.
If a break-in has damaged a shutter in Loughborough or elsewhere in Leicestershire, ring our 24/7 emergency line and we'll tell you the arrival time when you call. A short video of your shutter running, from Loughborough or anywhere in Leicestershire, helps us work out whether the fault is the curtain, motor or controls.
Loughborough is about 33 miles from our Great Barr base in Birmingham, so surveys are easy to plan. Jobs in LE11, LE12 are planned alongside Coalville and Leicester.
What can we sort out in Loughborough?
What does it cost in Loughborough?
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 Loughborough shop has stopped part way, do not force it, as a curtain under strain can bend or drop. Most fitting can be done early, late or at weekends, so a Loughborough shop can keep trading through the work.
Common questions
Can you come out to Loughborough for a survey?
Yes. New shopfronts and full refurbishments get a free survey in Loughborough. 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 Loughborough out of hours?
Yes. The emergency line is open 24/7 for break-ins and smashed glass in Loughborough. We will tell you the arrival time when you call.
