Choosing shutter replacement for premises in Cardiff

If your old shutter was manual, the replacement can be electric from the start. Rust, repeated faults, badly dented laths and outdated controls are common reasons to replace a shutter.

We price repair and replacement side by side when both are possible, so you can choose. If the box, barrel and guides are sound, fitting a new curtain can be much cheaper than replacing everything.

What's included

  • Manual to electric at the same time
  • Replacement curtain on existing box and guides
  • Commissioning and safety checks
  • Upgrade to perforated, insulated or rated laths
  • Repair and replace priced side by side
  • Removal of the old shutter

Rules in Wales

Planning permission for shopfront shutters

In Wales an external shopfront shutter normally needs planning permission from your county or county borough council, or the national park authority, and a listed building also needs listed building consent. Welsh councils' design guidance often prefers internal or open-pattern grilles to solid shutters, particularly in conservation areas.

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 Cardiff

Do you cover Cardiff?

Yes. Cardiff (CF10) is within our South Glamorgan coverage, along with nearby Penarth, Caerphilly and Barry.

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.

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.

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.

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 your guide prices include VAT?

Guide prices are shown both excluding VAT and including VAT at the standard rate of 20%. For a home, the price including VAT is what you pay.
