Roller shutter motor replacement in Croydon: questions
How do I know if my shutter motor has failed?
If the shutter hums but does not move, stops part way, or does nothing when the power and switch are fine, the motor or its limits are the likely cause. We test before replacing.
Can I replace the motor without replacing the shutter?
Yes, in most cases. The motor slides out of the barrel or unbolts from the side.
Do you charge for a visit in Croydon?
Yes, visits for repairs and servicing are charged, and we tell you the cost before booking. New-installation surveys are free.
Do you work on shutters fitted by other companies?
Yes, most makes and ages of shutter; photos and any labels help us bring the right parts to Croydon.
