Shutter replacement in Southend-on-Sea: the essentials
New electric shutters are commissioned with safety checks and handover paperwork. We price repair and replacement side by side when both are possible, so you can choose.

Features to choose from
- Commissioning and safety checks
- Upgrade to perforated, insulated or rated laths
- Repair and replace priced side by side
- Box relocation where possible
- Full strip-out and replacement
- Replacement curtain on existing box and guides

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.

Is it worth upgrading when I replace?
It is the cheapest time to add electric operation, perforated laths or insulation, because the work is being done anyway.
