If the shutter is sound, yes: a conversion costs a fraction of a new shutter.
Is the survey free in Shropshire?
Yes, surveys for new installations in Shropshire are free. Repair and service visits are charged.
Do I need permission for manual to electric conversion in Shropshire?
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. If you are unsure, ask your local council; we provide product details for any application.
