How shutter replacement works, and what to ask for

A replacement is a chance to upgrade to perforated, insulated or rated laths. If your old shutter was manual, the replacement can be electric from the start.

If the box, barrel and guides are sound, fitting a new curtain can be much cheaper than replacing everything. Rust, repeated faults, badly dented laths and outdated controls are common reasons to replace a shutter.

Options we can specify

  • Removal of the old shutter
  • Replacement curtain on existing box and guides
  • Full strip-out and replacement
  • Box relocation where possible
  • Repair and replace priced side by side
  • Upgrade to perforated, insulated or rated laths

Covering Swanley and nearby

Jobs in Swanley are planned as part of our Kent coverage, and visits can be combined with jobs in nearby Bexley, Dartford and Welling. Planning rules are those of your local council in England.

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 Swanley?

Yes. Swanley (BR8) is within our Kent coverage, along with nearby Bexley, Dartford and Welling.

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.

Is the survey free?

Yes, for new shutters, grilles and doors: the survey and written quote are free and there is no obligation to go ahead. Repair and servicing visits are charged, and we tell you the price before we visit.

Will you take away my old shutter?

Yes. Removal and disposal of an old shutter is included when we quote for a replacement.
