Shopfront repairs Gillingham

Before booking a repair to a rented unit in Gillingham or elsewhere in Kent, check your lease, since it may make the landlord responsible for the frontage. If part of your Gillingham shopfront has stopped working, send us photos first and we will tell you whether it can be priced without a visit.

Gillingham is around 131 miles from our Birmingham base. Teams travel, so the distance is planned into the job and shown on your quote. Jobs in ME7, ME8 are planned alongside Medway and Chatham.

Which faults do we deal with in Gillingham?

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.

Locks and keysSeized cylinders, worn hookbolts and lost keys are dealt with so the door locks properly at closing time.

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

What does it cost in Gillingham?

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.

Repairs in Gillingham can be arranged out of hours, overnight or at a weekend, so shops anywhere in Kent can keep trading while the work is done. Tell us your opening hours when you book and we will plan the Gillingham job around them, with overnight or weekend fitting where the work allows.

Common questions

Can you come out to Gillingham for a survey?

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

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 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.

What do I do if my shop in Gillingham 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.
