Frequently asked questions
Is it worth converting rather than replacing?
If the shutter is sound, yes: a conversion costs a fraction of a new shutter.
Can any manual shutter be made electric?
Most can, as long as the curtain, barrel and guides are in reasonable condition. Very old or damaged shutters may be better replaced.

Yes. Chiswick and the W4 postcode district are part of our coverage across Greater London.
Is the survey free in Chiswick?
