Frequently asked questions
Can I replace just the shutter curtain?
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 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.
Do I need permission for roller shutter replacement in South Shields?
Possibly. 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. We recommend checking with your local council first.
Is the survey free in South Shields?
Yes, surveys for new installations in South Shields are free. Repair and service visits are charged.
