Wallsend, Tyne and Wear
Roller shutter repairs in Wallsend
A short video of your shutter running, from Wallsend or anywhere in Tyne and Wear, 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 Wallsend premises finds the fault, and you know that cost in advance. Repairing your Wallsend shutter like for like is usually simple, but check with your council before changing its look, as planning rules differ across the UK.
Work in Wallsend is run from Birmingham, roughly 170 miles away, with teams booked for the whole job so it is finished in one visit wherever possible. We cover NE6, NE7, NE28 and the surrounding streets, along with Hebburn, Jarrow and Gateshead.
Which faults do we deal with in Wallsend?
What does it cost in Wallsend?
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 Wallsend shop has stopped part way, do not force it, as a curtain under strain can bend or drop. Most fitting can be done early, late or at weekends, so a Wallsend shop can keep trading through the work.
Common questions
Do you cover Wallsend?
Yes. ShopFronts UK works in Wallsend and across Tyne and Wear, including NE6, NE7, NE28. Call 0800 088 6341 or send the form with your postcode and we will confirm the details.
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 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.
What do I do if my shop in Wallsend 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.
