How shutter replacement works, and what to ask for

Rust, repeated faults, badly dented laths and outdated controls are common reasons to replace a shutter. The old shutter is removed and taken away as part of a full replacement.

A replacement is a chance to upgrade to perforated, insulated or rated laths. We price repair and replacement side by side when both are possible, so you can choose.

Features to choose from

  • Replacement curtain on existing box and guides
  • Removal of the old shutter
  • Manual to electric at the same time
  • Full strip-out and replacement
  • Repair and replace priced side by side
  • Box relocation where possible

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.

Your questions answered

Do you cover St Albans?

Yes. Send the postcode and we will arrange a survey in St Albans. We also cover nearby Harpenden, Hatfield and Hemel Hempstead.

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.

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.

Will you take the old shutter away?

Yes, removal and disposal of the old shutter is included in a full replacement quote.

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.

Do you work with landlords and managing agents?

Yes. We quote, fit and service shutters for landlords, managing agents and facilities teams, including multi-site planned maintenance.
