Window shutters for properties in Telford
We cover Telford and the TF3 postcode district as part of Shropshire; you book a survey here exactly as you would anywhere else. We also cover Wellington, Bridgnorth and Shrewsbury, so premises in more than one of these places can be quoted together.

You do not have to do every window at once: in Telford we can fit the ground-floor windows first and match the colour and box on others later.
Where a window in Telford has no power nearby, a solar shutter avoids running a cable; where there is a socket or spur, a wired motor is simpler.

Rules that apply in Telford
Telford is in England, so planning decisions sit with your local planning authority (the district, borough, city or unitary council).
- 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.
- 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.
- 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.
- 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.

Yes. Many people start with ground-floor windows facing the street or the bedrooms they want dark, and add more later in a matching finish.

On many ordinary houses no application is needed, but check with your council before ordering; we supply drawings if you need to apply.
