Where a fault on your Reading frontage cannot be priced from photos, a charged diagnostic visit finds the cause, and you hear that cost beforehand. Landlords with units in Reading and across Berkshire can use one contractor for frames, glass, doors, locks and signs rather than booking separate trades.

Work in Reading is run from Birmingham, roughly 85 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 RG1, RG4, RG6, and we also cover Wokingham, Bracknell and Sandhurst nearby.

Which faults do we deal with in Reading?

Shutter and sign faultsOne contractor can look at the whole frontage, so a stuck shutter and a dead sign do not need two separate call-outs.
Leaks and draughtsFailed silicone, perished gaskets and blocked drainage paths let in water and cold air. We trace the route before resealing.
Frame and trim damageDented sections, loose cover caps and impact damage from vehicles or trolleys are repaired or replaced length by length.

What does it cost in Reading?

A shopfront repair usually costs £125 to £995 ex VAT for most single repairs. Send photos first, because many jobs can be priced from them. Where a fault cannot be priced that way, we book a charged diagnostic visit, from £125 ex VAT, and you hear that cost before we come out. Parts, access and out-of-hours work can move the figure, so we confirm the repair price before starting.

If part of your Reading shopfront has stopped working, send us photos first and we will tell you whether it can be priced without a visit. If you can't close, we phase the work: one bay at a time, with the unit left secure and weathertight every night.

Do you cover Reading?

Yes. ShopFronts UK works in Reading and across Berkshire, including RG1, RG4, RG6. Call 0800 088 6341 or send the form with your postcode and we will confirm the details.

Can you provide paperwork for an insurance claim?

Yes, we can provide photos and an itemised invoice for your insurer. Whether a claim is paid is the insurer's decision, and we cannot promise an outcome. Speak to them before work starts if they need to approve the repair or send an assessor.

Are shopfront repairs guaranteed?

Yes, our workmanship carries a 10-year guarantee. Replacement products such as motors, closers and glass units are covered by the manufacturer's warranty instead. We will tell you which cover applies to your repair when we confirm the price.

What do I do if my shop in Reading 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.
