Shopfront repairs Christchurch

An older frontage in Christchurch may have discontinued sections or fittings, so we look for a compatible part before suggesting that anything needs replacing. Repairs in Christchurch can be arranged out of hours, overnight or at a weekend, so shops anywhere in Dorset can keep trading while the work is done.

Work in Christchurch is run from Birmingham, roughly 125 miles away, with teams booked for the whole job so it is finished in one visit wherever possible. Our Christchurch work takes in BH5, BH6, BH7. Neighbouring Bournemouth and Poole are covered too.

What do we fix in Christchurch?

Frame and trim damageDented sections, loose cover caps and impact damage from vehicles or trolleys are repaired or replaced length by length.

Leaks and draughtsFailed silicone, perished gaskets and blocked drainage paths let in water and cold air. We trace the route before resealing.

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 Christchurch?

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 Christchurch shopfront has stopped working, send us photos first and we will tell you whether it can be priced without a visit. Most fitting can be done early, late or at weekends, so a Christchurch shop can keep trading through the work.

Common questions

Can you come out to Christchurch for a survey?

Yes. New shopfronts and full refurbishments get a free survey in Christchurch. Repairs are a charged visit, and we tell you the cost of the visit before anyone comes out.

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.

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.

What do I do if my shop in Christchurch 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.
