Roller shutter repairs in Cardiff

If a break-in has damaged a shutter in Cardiff or elsewhere in Wales, ring our 24/7 emergency line and we'll tell you the arrival time when you call.

Engineer repairing a roller shutter motor

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

Cardiff is around 91 miles from our Birmingham base. Teams travel, so the distance is planned into the job and shown on your quote. Postcodes we work in around here include CF5, CF10, CF11, and we also cover Penarth, Caerphilly and Barry nearby.

What do we fix in Cardiff?

Motor failureA failed motor is tested and replaced with a unit sized for the curtain and barrel.
Bent or damaged lathsDamaged laths are slid out and replaced where the profile is available, without renewing the whole curtain.
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 Cardiff?

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 Cardiff 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 Cardiff job around them, with overnight or weekend fitting where the work allows.

Common questions

Do you work in CF5, CF10, CF11?

Yes. Cardiff and the CF5, CF10, CF11 postcodes are covered, as is the rest of Wales. 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.

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 the same rules apply in Wales?

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

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

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