Shopfront repairs in Leek

An older frontage in Leek may have discontinued sections or fittings, so we look for a compatible part before suggesting that anything needs replacing.

Landlords with units in Leek and across Staffordshire can use one contractor for frames, glass, doors, locks and signs rather than booking separate trades. Before booking a repair to a rented unit in Leek or elsewhere in Staffordshire, check your lease, since it may make the landlord responsible for the frontage.

Leek is about 39 miles from our Great Barr base in Birmingham, so surveys are easy to plan. Postcodes we work in around here include ST13, and we also cover Congleton, Stoke-on-Trent and Newcastle-under-Lyme nearby.

Which faults do we deal with in Leek?

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.
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.

What does it cost in Leek?

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.

Where a fault on your Leek frontage cannot be priced from photos, a charged diagnostic visit finds the cause, and you hear that cost beforehand. Most fitting can be done early, late or at weekends, so a Leek shop can keep trading through the work.

Common questions

Can you come out to Leek for a survey?

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

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.

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 Leek 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.
