Roller shutters for Greenock
We cover Greenock and the PA16 postcode district as part of Renfrewshire & Inverclyde; you book a survey here exactly as you would anywhere else.

Greenock sits some 15 miles to the north-west of Paisley.
You do not have to do every window at once: in Greenock we can fit the ground-floor windows first and match the colour and box on others later.
We check the fascia, the box space and the power supply on every shopfront in Greenock before quoting, so the fixed price reflects the real job.
Planning and safety in Greenock
Planning in Greenock follows the Town and Country Planning (Scotland) Act 1997 and the Scottish 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, with Historic Environment Scotland consulted where required.
Electrical work for powered shutters is carried out to BS 7671 and the Scottish building standards for electrical safety.
Fire shutters in workplaces and other non-domestic premises are maintained under the Fire (Scotland) Act 2005 and the Fire Safety (Scotland) Regulations 2006, where the duty holder is responsible for keeping fire safety measures in working order. Fire shutters that form part of building work also need approval from the council's building standards service (building warrants).
