Covering Monmouth
We survey and install across Gwent, and Monmouth is one of the towns covered.
Our coverage around Monmouth also includes Chepstow, Abergavenny and Pontypool.
For reference, Monmouth lies about 20 miles north-east of Newport.
Each window in Monmouth is measured to the real opening, including the lintel, render beads and cill, which is why the survey comes before any price is fixed.
Manual push-up and crank shutters still suit small frontages in Monmouth where there is no power at the box or the shutter only runs once a day.
Rules that apply in Monmouth
Planning in Monmouth follows the Town and Country Planning Act 1990 and the Welsh permitted development rules. Shopfront shutters usually need planning permission; for houses it depends on the property, and listed buildings need listed building consent from the council, under the Historic Environment (Wales) Act 2023.
Electrical work for powered shutters is carried out to BS 7671, with notifiable work in homes (under Part P in Wales, whose list of notifiable work differs slightly from England's) self-certified by a competent person scheme electrician or notified to building control.
Fire shutters in workplaces and other non-domestic premises, including the common parts of blocks of flats, are maintained under the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005, where the responsible person is responsible for keeping fire safety measures in working order. Fire shutters that form part of building work also need approval from local authority building control.
