What the repair involves in Tyne and Wear

- Test the supply, switch and limit settings before condemning a motor
- Match a replacement motor to the curtain weight and barrel size
- Fit, set top and bottom limits and test
- Remove and dispose of the old motor

How do I book?
Send us your details and we will come back with a visit time. If the shutter is stuck open or shut and the premises cannot be secured, say so and the job is treated as a priority. If a repair is not worth doing, you will be told plainly, with a price for the alternative so you can decide without pressure.
