Rules that apply in Truro
In Truro, as elsewhere in England, planning questions go to your local planning authority (the district, borough, city or unitary council).
- Fire shutters: Faults on fire shutters affect the building's fire safety; tell the person responsible for fire safety and arrange repair promptly.
- Safety first: Do not keep forcing a shutter that has jammed or dropped; a sprung or heavy curtain can move suddenly. Keep people clear and call us.

Frequently asked questions
Can you repair any make of shutter?
We repair most domestic and commercial roller shutters. If a part is no longer made we will offer a compatible alternative or a replacement curtain or motor.
My shutter came down on its own, is it safe?
Keep people away from it and do not try to lift it by hand; a broken spring or failed brake can make it move unexpectedly. Call us and we will make it safe.

Yes. Truro and the TR1 postcode district are part of our coverage across Cornwall.
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 Truro.
