Solar shutters for properties in Gloucester
If you let out a property in Gloucester, solar roller shutters can protect it between tenancies or bookings, and solar or remote control avoids extra wiring.
On houses in Gloucester, the practical questions are where the box can sit, how the shutter will be powered and whether the window is an escape route; the survey answers all three.
Surveys in Gloucester and the surrounding area are arranged directly with you, as part of our coverage across Gloucestershire. We also cover Cheltenham, Stroud and Tewkesbury, so premises in more than one of these places can be quoted together.

Rules that apply in Gloucester
In Gloucester, as elsewhere in England, planning questions go to your local planning authority (the district, borough, city or unitary council).
- Planning: Solar shutters look much the same as mains shutters from outside, so the same planning advice applies.
- Orientation: We check daylight on the panel at survey; heavily shaded openings may need a remote panel or mains power.
