Where in Northumberland do you cover?
Our engineers regularly travel to Hexham, Blyth, Cramlington and Morpeth, which means a visit to your town is normally planned into an existing route rather than charged as a long-distance call-out.
What the repair involves in Northumberland
When repair is not worth it, a new shutter measured and fitted. That is the core of our shop shutter replacement work. The engineer also checks the rest of the shutter while on site, so you know about any other part that is close to failing before it strands you.
- Survey and measure the opening
- Quote options for manual, electric, solid, perforated or grille
- Remove and dispose of the old shutter
- Fit, commission and hand over
Signs you need shop shutter replacement

New external shutters often need planning permission, particularly solid shutters and premises in conservation areas. Check with your local planning authority in Northumberland before ordering; perforated or internal grilles are sometimes an acceptable alternative.

Shop shutter replacement in Northumberland: questions
When is it better to replace a shop shutter than repair it?
Replacement starts to make sense when the repair would cost more than about half the price of a new shutter, or when the curtain, barrel and motor are all near the end of their life. The engineer prices both options so you can compare.
