Before booking a repair to a rented unit in Peterlee or elsewhere in County Durham, check your lease, since it may make the landlord responsible for the frontage. Where a fault on your Peterlee frontage cannot be priced from photos, a charged diagnostic visit finds the cause, and you hear that cost beforehand.

We are based in Great Barr, Birmingham, about 155 miles away, and send fitting teams across the North East. Travel is included in your written quote, not added afterwards. Postcodes we work in around here include SR8, and we also cover Hartlepool, Durham and Sunderland nearby.

What can we sort out in Peterlee?

Doors that stick or dropWorn pivots, hinges or floor springs let a door drop and catch the frame. We find the cause rather than forcing or planing the door.
Frame and trim damageDented sections, loose cover caps and impact damage from vehicles or trolleys are repaired or replaced length by length.
Locks and keysSeized cylinders, worn hookbolts and lost keys are dealt with so the door locks properly at closing time.

What does it cost in Peterlee?

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.

An older frontage in Peterlee may have discontinued sections or fittings, so we look for a compatible part before suggesting that anything needs replacing. Tell us your opening hours when you book and we will plan the Peterlee job around them, with overnight or weekend fitting where the work allows.

Common questions

Do you cover Peterlee?

Yes. ShopFronts UK works in Peterlee and across County Durham, including SR8. Call 0800 088 6341 or send the form with your postcode and we will confirm the details.

Do shopfront repairs need planning permission?

Like-for-like repairs usually do not need planning permission in England. A change that materially alters the appearance may need it, and a listed building may need listed building consent. Rules differ in Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland, so check with your council before changing the look.

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.

What do I do if my shop in Peterlee 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.
