Frequently asked questions
Do I need planning permission to replace a shutter?
Like-for-like replacements usually do not, but changing type, colour or position on a shopfront may. Check with your council.

Yes, if the box, barrel and guides are sound. It is often the cheapest way to fix a shutter with corroded or damaged laths.
Do I need permission for roller shutter replacement in Houghton-le-Spring?
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.
