Roller shutter repairs Newcastle upon Tyne

Landlords with shuttered units in Newcastle upon Tyne and across Tyne and Wear can move to planned servicing, rather than only calling when a shutter jams. A short video of your shutter running, from Newcastle upon Tyne or anywhere in Tyne and Wear, helps us work out whether the fault is the curtain, motor or controls.

Work in Newcastle upon Tyne is run from Birmingham, roughly 168 miles away, with teams booked for the whole job so it is finished in one visit wherever possible. Jobs in NE1, NE2, NE4 are planned alongside Gateshead and Wallsend.

Which faults do we deal with in Newcastle upon Tyne?

Manual shutters and springsSpring-balanced shutters hold stored tension, so spring work is left to trained hands rather than attempted by staff.

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

Bent or damaged lathsDamaged laths are slid out and replaced where the profile is available, without renewing the whole curtain.

What does it cost in Newcastle upon Tyne?

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.

Repairing your Newcastle upon Tyne shutter like for like is usually simple, but check with your council before changing its look, as planning rules differ across the UK. 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, NE4?

Yes. Newcastle upon Tyne and the NE1, NE2, NE4 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.

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.

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 you board up a shop in Newcastle upon Tyne out of hours?

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