Shopfront repairs in Cardiff

Landlords with units in Cardiff and across Wales 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 Cardiff or elsewhere in Wales, check your lease, since it may make the landlord responsible for the frontage. If part of your Cardiff shopfront has stopped working, send us photos first and we will tell you whether it can be priced without a visit.

Work in Cardiff is run from Birmingham, roughly 91 miles away, with teams booked for the whole job so it is finished in one visit wherever possible. We cover CF5, CF10, CF11 and the surrounding streets, along with Penarth, Caerphilly and Barry.

What do we fix in Cardiff?

Locks and keysSeized cylinders, worn hookbolts and lost keys are dealt with so the door locks properly at closing time.
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.
Frame and trim damageDented sections, loose cover caps and impact damage from vehicles or trolleys are repaired or replaced length by length.

What does it cost in Cardiff?

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 Cardiff may have discontinued sections or fittings, so we look for a compatible part before suggesting that anything needs replacing. Most fitting can be done early, late or at weekends, so a Cardiff shop can keep trading through the work.

Common questions

Can you come out to Cardiff for a survey?

Yes. New shopfronts and full refurbishments get a free survey in Cardiff. 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.

Can repairs be done outside trading hours?

Yes, out-of-hours, overnight and weekend work can be arranged so you can keep trading. Tell us your opening times when you first get in touch. We confirm the booking and any change in cost before the work is scheduled.

Do the same rules apply in Wales?

Rules differ in Wales, so we confirm what applies to your premises before work starts.

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

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