Shopfront repairs in Dover

If part of your Dover shopfront has stopped working, send us photos first and we will tell you whether it can be priced without a visit.

Before booking a repair to a rented unit in Dover or elsewhere in Kent, check your lease, since it may make the landlord responsible for the frontage. An older frontage in Dover may have discontinued sections or fittings, so we look for a compatible part before suggesting that anything needs replacing.

Dover is around 169 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 CT14, CT16, CT17, and we also cover Folkestone, Deal and Canterbury nearby.

What do we fix in Dover?

Frame and trim damageDented sections, loose cover caps and impact damage from vehicles or trolleys are repaired or replaced length by length.
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.
Cracked or broken glassWe make the pane safe, measure the opening and fit the correct safety glass for its position in the frontage.

What does it cost in Dover?

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.

Landlords with units in Dover and across Kent can use one contractor for frames, glass, doors, locks and signs rather than booking separate trades. Tell us your opening hours when you book and we will plan the Dover job around them, with overnight or weekend fitting where the work allows.

Common questions

Do you cover Dover?

Yes. ShopFronts UK works in Dover and across Kent, including CT14, CT16, CT17. Call 0800 088 6341 or send the form with your postcode and we will confirm the details.

Can my shopfront be repaired or does it need replacing?

Many faults can be repaired without replacing the frontage, provided the frame is sound. If corrosion, rot or repeated damage means a repair would not last, we will say so. A refurbishment or a new shopfront is then priced as a separate job.

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.

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

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