Engineer repairing a roller shutter motor

Repairing your Gateshead shutter like for like is usually simple, but check with your council before changing its look, as planning rules differ across the UK. A short video of your shutter running, from Gateshead or anywhere in Tyne and Wear, helps us work out whether the fault is the curtain, motor or controls.

Work in Gateshead is run from Birmingham, roughly 168 miles away, with teams booked for the whole job so it is finished in one visit wherever possible. Our Gateshead work takes in NE1, NE2, NE8. Neighbouring Newcastle upon Tyne and Wallsend are covered too.

What do we fix in Gateshead?

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

What does it cost in Gateshead?

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 Gateshead 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 work in NE1, NE2, NE8?

Yes. Gateshead and the NE1, NE2, NE8 postcodes are covered, as is the rest of Tyne and Wear. Send your postcode with your enquiry and we will come back to you with the next step.

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.

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 Gateshead out of hours?

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