Our window roller shutters service in Canning Town
Whether your property is in the centre of Canning Town or on its edges, it is included in our Greater London coverage. We also cover Stratford, Bow and Canary Wharf, so premises in more than one of these places can be quoted together.
Canning Town is roughly 6 miles east of central London.
You do not have to do every window at once: in Canning Town we can fit the ground-floor windows first and match the colour and box on others later.
Where a window in Canning Town has no power nearby, a solar shutter avoids running a cable; where there is a socket or spur, a wired motor is simpler.

What to check in Canning Town before ordering
Canning Town is in England, so planning decisions sit with your local planning authority (the district, borough, city or unitary council).
- Electrics: Motors are wired to BS 7671. Some electrical work in homes, such as a new circuit, is notifiable under Part P in England and Wales (the lists of notifiable work differ slightly between the two). It is either self-certified by an electrician registered with a competent person scheme or notified to building control.
- Escape windows: If a shutter covers a window you would use to get out in a fire, it must open from inside without a key. We fit a manual override or battery backup on those openings.
- Planning: Whether external shutters on a house need permission depends on the property and the council. Listed buildings need consent for external alterations, and conservation areas often bring tighter rules, so check before ordering. We provide drawings and product details for an application.
- Ventilation: A closed shutter reduces airflow round trickle vents, so on rooms with gas appliances or poor ventilation we specify slotted laths or a part-open setting.

Frequently asked questions
Do window shutters need planning permission?
It depends on the house and the council. External shutters on a listed building need listed building consent, and conservation areas and some councils apply tighter controls. On many ordinary houses no application is needed, but check with your council before ordering; we supply drawings if you need to apply.
Will a shutter stop me opening my window?
No. The shutter runs outside the window, so you can still open casements when it is raised. Inward-opening tilt-and-turn windows can also be opened with the shutter down.
How much do window roller shutters cost in Canning Town?
Typical prices are shown above. A survey at your property in Canning Town confirms the specification and fixes the price.
Is the survey free in Canning Town?
