Shutter replacement in Preston: the essentials

Replacing an external shutter with a different design may need planning permission, so it is checked first. We price repair and replacement side by side when both are possible, so you can choose.

Like-for-like replacements on existing fixings are usually quicker to fit than new installations. If your old shutter was manual, the replacement can be electric from the start.

Features to choose from

  • Commissioning and safety checks
  • Repair and replace priced side by side
  • Replacement curtain on existing box and guides
  • Box relocation where possible
  • Manual to electric at the same time
  • Removal of the old shutter

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 Preston?

Yes. Preston (PR1) is within our Lancashire coverage, along with nearby Leyland, Chorley and Blackburn.

Will you take the old shutter away?

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

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.

Who carries out the work?

Work is carried out by experienced shutter engineers working for S&K Property Investments and Improvement Ltd, which is the company your contract is with.

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.
