Shutter replacement in Whitefield: the essentials

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 Rust, repeated faults, badly dented laths and outdated controls are common reasons to replace a shutter.

Like-for-like replacements on existing fixings are usually quicker to fit than new installations. New electric shutters are commissioned with safety checks and handover paperwork.

Options we can specify

  • Removal of the old shutter
  • Upgrade to perforated, insulated or rated laths
  • Full strip-out and replacement
  • Manual to electric at the same time
  • Repair and replace priced side by side
  • 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.

How it works

  1. Describe the fault

    Tell us what the shutter is doing, the make if you know it, and send a photo or video.

  2. Engineer visit

    An engineer inspects the shutter, finds the cause and makes it safe.

  3. Fixed repair price

    You get the repair price before parts are fitted; simple fixes are often done on the first visit.

  4. Tested and reported

    Limits and safety devices are checked, and you get a note of what was done.

Before you book in Whitefield

Do you cover Whitefield?

Yes. Send the postcode and we will arrange a survey in Whitefield. We also cover nearby Radcliffe, Prestwich and Bury.

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.

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.

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.

What details help you quote quickly?

The postcode, the approximate width and height of the opening, whether you want manual or electric operation, and a photo of the frontage.

What warranty do I get?

Products carry the manufacturer's warranty, and the warranty for your shutter is set out in your quote.
