Roller shutter repairs in Dumfries

Repairing your Dumfries shutter like for like is usually simple, but check with your council before changing its look, as planning rules differ across the UK.

Engineer repairing a roller shutter motor

A short video of your shutter running, from Dumfries or anywhere in Scotland, helps us work out whether the fault is the curtain, motor or controls. Where a video is not enough, a charged diagnostic visit to your Dumfries premises finds the fault, and you know that cost in advance.

Work in Dumfries is run from Birmingham, roughly 188 miles away, with teams booked for the whole job so it is finished in one visit wherever possible. Postcodes we work in around here include DG1, DG2, DG11, and we also cover Carlisle, Workington and Whitehaven nearby.

What do we fix in Dumfries?

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.
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.

What does it cost in Dumfries?

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 Dumfries shop has stopped part way, do not force it, as a curtain under strain can bend or drop. Tell us your opening hours when you book and we will plan the Dumfries job around them, with overnight or weekend fitting where the work allows.

Common questions

Can you come out to Dumfries for a survey?

Yes. New shopfronts and full refurbishments get a free survey in Dumfries. 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.

Can you repair any make of shutter?

Many faults can be repaired on most makes, because laths, guides, motors and controls come from common component suppliers. Where a part has been discontinued, we look for a compatible alternative and tell you before ordering it.

Do the same rules apply in Scotland?

Rules differ in Scotland, so we confirm what applies to your premises before work starts.

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

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