Most can, as long as the curtain, barrel and guides are in reasonable condition. Very old or damaged shutters may be better replaced.

Possibly. Like-for-like replacements do not usually need permission, but a new external shutter or a change of type or position can, especially on shopfronts and listed buildings. We recommend checking with your council first.
