What to know about shutter replacement in Tynemouth
If your old shutter was manual, the replacement can be electric from the start. Replacing an external shutter with a different design may need planning permission, so it is checked first.
A replacement is a chance to upgrade to perforated, insulated or rated laths. New electric shutters are commissioned with safety checks and handover paperwork.
Options we can specify
- Manual to electric at the same time
- Upgrade to perforated, insulated or rated laths
- Box relocation where possible
- Removal of the old shutter
- Commissioning and safety checks
- Full strip-out and replacement

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 Tynemouth?
Yes. Tynemouth (NE30) is within our Tyne and Wear coverage, along with nearby North Shields, South Shields and Whitley Bay.
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.
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.
Can you fit outside trading hours?
Yes, out-of-hours fitting can be arranged for shops and businesses that cannot close during the day.
