Our electric roller shutters service in Oldham
For reference, Oldham lies about 6 miles north-east of Manchester.
You do not have to do every window at once: in Oldham we can fit the ground-floor windows first and match the colour and box on others later.
On houses in Oldham, the practical questions are where the box can sit, how the shutter will be powered and whether the window is an escape route; the survey answers all three.
We cover Oldham and the OL1 postcode district as part of Greater Manchester; you book a survey here exactly as you would anywhere else. We also cover Chadderton, Royton and Failsworth, so premises in more than one of these places can be quoted together.

Frequently asked questions
Do electric shutters need a new circuit?
Not always. Many can be fed from an existing circuit through a fused spur; larger groups may need a new circuit. We check at survey and the electrical work is done to BS 7671.
How long do shutter motors last?
A good tubular motor commonly lasts many years in domestic use. If one fails it can be replaced without replacing the whole shutter.
Is the survey free in Oldham?
Yes, for new installations. We tell you the cost of any repair or service visit before booking.
