Roller shutter repairs in Wellingborough

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

Engineer repairing a roller shutter motor

Landlords with shuttered units in Wellingborough and across Northamptonshire can move to planned servicing, rather than only calling when a shutter jams. If a shutter at your Wellingborough shop has stopped part way, do not force it, as a curtain under strain can bend or drop.

Wellingborough is around 54 miles from our Birmingham base. Teams travel, so the distance is planned into the job and shown on your quote. Jobs in NN8 are planned alongside Rushden and Kettering.

What do we fix in Wellingborough?

Bent or damaged lathsDamaged laths are slid out and replaced where the profile is available, without renewing the whole curtain.
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.
Stuck open or closedWe find out whether the curtain, motor, brake or controls are the cause, then work out how to release it safely.

What does it cost in Wellingborough?

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 Wellingborough or anywhere in Northamptonshire, helps us work out whether the fault is the curtain, motor or controls. We protect the pavement and your stock, keep the opening secure at the end of every shift, and leave the Wellingborough site clean.

Common questions

Can you come out to Wellingborough for a survey?

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

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 Wellingborough 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.
