What should I know about coloured and woodgrain roller garage doors in Thatcham?

Decide whether you want the guide rails and box in the same finish, especially if the box will be face-fitted outside.
Ask whether the colour you want is in the manufacturer's range, because colours outside it are priced separately on survey.
Look through the paperwork for your windows or front door, because the RAL code is the most reliable way to match the colour.
Read your deeds for covenants about the front of the house, which some newer estates use to control colours.

Once you accept the quote, the door is ordered in that finish and the fitting date is confirmed in writing. The date depends on installer availability.

Rules that apply in Thatcham

Planning

Replacing a garage door is not usually development that needs planning permission. Check first if your home is listed (listed building consent covers works that affect its character), sits in a conservation area with an Article 4 direction, or is on an estate where planning conditions or covenants control garage doors.

Structural work

Widening the opening, removing a central pier or fitting a new lintel is structural work that needs Building Regulations approval from building control before it starts.

Coloured and woodgrain roller garage doors in Thatcham: questions

Is the survey in Thatcham really free?

Yes. For a new door, a replacement or a conversion, the survey is free and there is no obligation to go ahead. We measure the opening, check the lintel, headroom, side room and power, and send a written quote afterwards.

How long does it take to fit a roller garage door in Thatcham?

Most single domestic roller doors are fitted in a day once the door has been made, including removing the old door. Wider doors, conversions that need building work and jobs where power has to be run can take longer; the quote says what to expect.

Can I message you a photo of my garage in Thatcham?

Yes. Photos of the opening, the inside of the garage above the door and any existing door help us give a more useful guide price for Thatcham. Send them by WhatsApp or mention them in your enquiry, and we will reply in writing.

What do you check at a survey in RG19?

At a survey in RG19 we measure the width and height of the opening, the headroom above it for the roller box, the side room for the guide rails and the floor level. We also look at the lintel and where power can come from for an electric door.

Will the guide rails and box match the door colour?

It's worth asking at the survey. On most fittings the box sits inside the garage, but the guide rails can be visible from outside, and a face-fitted box is fully on show. Finish options for the guides and box depend on the door model, so tell us what you'd like and the quote will state exactly what's included.

Can I see a colour sample before ordering?

It's sensible to see a physical sample where one is available, because screens and printed charts don't show colours accurately. Ask about samples when you book your survey. If you already have a RAL code from your windows or front door, that code is the most precise way to tell us the colour you want.
