Roller shutter repairs Lincoln

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

Lincoln is around 74 miles from our Birmingham base. Teams travel, so the distance is planned into the job and shown on your quote. We cover LN6 and the surrounding streets, along with Gainsborough, Newark and Retford.

What do we fix in Lincoln?

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.

Controls and remotesKey switches, push buttons, receivers and handsets are tested and replaced, and limits are reset.

What does it cost in Lincoln?

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.

Where a video is not enough, a charged diagnostic visit to your Lincoln premises finds the fault, and you know that cost in advance. 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 Lincoln?

Yes. ShopFronts UK works in Lincoln and across Lincolnshire, including LN6. Call 0800 088 6341 or send the form with your postcode and we will confirm the details.

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 Lincoln out of hours?

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