How shutter replacement works, and what to ask for
If the box, barrel and guides are sound, fitting a new curtain can be much cheaper than replacing everything. A replacement can move the box behind the fascia for a tidier frontage where the structure allows.
Replacing an external shutter with a different design may need planning permission, so it is checked first. Rust, repeated faults, badly dented laths and outdated controls are common reasons to replace a shutter.
Specification options
- Removal of the old shutter
- Replacement curtain on existing box and guides
- Full strip-out and replacement
- Box relocation where possible
- Upgrade to perforated, insulated or rated laths
- Repair and replace priced side by side

Rules in England
Planning permission for shopfront shutters
In England an external shutter on a shopfront is usually treated as development that needs planning permission from the local planning authority, and a listed building also needs listed building consent. Many councils' shopfront design guides favour internal shutters, perforated or open-grille designs and boxes hidden behind the fascia, and some refuse solid external shutters in conservation areas and on main shopping streets.

Before you book in Alfreton
Do you cover Alfreton?
Yes. We survey, fit and repair shutter replacement in Alfreton and the DE55 district, as part of our coverage across Derbyshire.
Will you take the old shutter away?
Yes, removal and disposal of the old shutter is included in a full replacement quote.
Can I keep my shutter box and just replace the curtain?
Often yes, if the box, barrel and guides are sound. We inspect them and price both options.
Do I need planning permission to replace a shutter?
A like-for-like replacement often does not, but changing the design, colour or position of an external shutter may. We check with you before ordering.
How long does it take from order to fitting?
Shutters are made to measure after the survey, so the lead time depends on the product, colour and any security rating. We confirm it in your quote.
Are your prices fixed?
Yes. After the survey you get a written price for the agreed specification, confirmed before anything is ordered or any work starts. If you change the specification, or a hidden problem such as a weak lintel is found during fitting, we price it and agree it with you before carrying on.
