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.
Why has my roller shutter stopped working?
Common causes are a tripped or failed motor, limits that have drifted, laths jumping out of a guide, a broken spring on manual shutters, or a jammed lock. Photos help us diagnose it before we visit.

Yes. We work on most makes of domestic, shop and industrial roller shutter, wherever they came from.
