Solar shutters for properties in Wimbledon
For reference, Wimbledon lies about 7 miles south-west of central London.
Window shutters are usually chosen for security when a house is empty, for blackout in bedrooms or for keeping summer heat off the glass, and the survey in Wimbledon starts with which of those matters most to you.
If you let out a property in Wimbledon, solar roller shutters can protect it between tenancies or bookings, and solar or remote control avoids extra wiring.
We cover Wimbledon and the SW19 postcode district as part of Greater London; you book a survey here exactly as you would anywhere else. Morden, Mitcham and Putney are covered too, which helps when several properties need doing.

Planning and safety in Wimbledon
In Wimbledon, 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.
