What to know about shutter replacement in Newcastle upon Tyne
New electric shutters are commissioned with safety checks and handover paperwork. If your old shutter was manual, the replacement can be electric from the start.
The old shutter is removed and taken away as part of a full replacement. We price repair and replacement side by side when both are possible, so you can choose.
Options we can specify
- Manual to electric at the same time
- Upgrade to perforated, insulated or rated laths
- Removal of the old shutter
- Replacement curtain on existing box and guides
- Box relocation where possible
- Commissioning and safety checks

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.

Shutter replacement: common questions
Do you cover Newcastle upon Tyne?
Yes. Send the postcode and we will arrange a survey in Newcastle upon Tyne. We also cover nearby Gateshead, Wallsend and Hebburn.
Will you take the old shutter away?
Yes, removal and disposal of the old shutter is included in a full replacement quote.
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 away my old shutter?
Yes. Removal and disposal of an old shutter is included when we quote for a replacement.
Can I get a quote from photos?
Photos and approximate sizes let us give you a guide price quickly. A survey is still needed before a shutter is made, because it is built to exact measurements.
