Choosing roller shutter repairs for premises in Washington
We repair most makes and types, from small window shutters to industrial doors. Damaged laths can usually be cut out and replaced individually rather than replacing the whole curtain.
A shutter that drops or creeps when stopped needs urgent attention, as the brake or spring may be failing. After a repair, powered shutters are checked so the safety devices and limits work correctly.
Features to choose from
- Damaged lath replacement
- Bottom rail and lock repairs
- Guide, bearing and end plate repairs
- Spring re-tensioning and replacement
- Key switch, remote and receiver repairs
- Curtains refitted into guides

Rules in England
Safety of powered shutters
Powered doors and shutters are treated as machinery. The installer commissions them with a risk assessment, safety devices where the risk calls for them and force checks to BS EN 12453, then hands over a declaration of conformity and maintenance instructions. In workplaces, the employer or whoever controls the premises must keep doors maintained and safe for staff and visitors.

Your questions answered
Do you cover Washington?
Yes. Send the postcode and we will arrange a survey in Washington. We also cover nearby Chester-le-Street, Houghton-le-Spring and Hebburn.
Why does my electric shutter stop halfway?
Common causes are incorrect limit settings, an obstruction, a safety edge fault or a motor overheating. An engineer can diagnose it on site.
My shutter is stuck half open. What should I do?
Stop using it and do not force it, as a jammed curtain or failing spring can drop suddenly. Keep people clear and book a repair.
How much does a shutter repair cost?
A service and adjustment is typically £90 to £180 + VAT, and a replacement tube motor £345 to £695 + VAT. We confirm a fixed price before starting once the fault is known.
