What should I know about damaged lath repairs in Ayr?
- Guide rails and the bottom rail are checked for damage too, and any extra parts are quoted before fitting.
- If many laths are damaged, we'll tell you plainly whether a new roller door would be better value.
- Damaged laths are slid out of the curtain and replaced individually, without replacing the whole door.
- New laths can look slightly different from weathered ones, and we'll say so before any laths are ordered.
How does it work in Ayr?
The engineer replaces the damaged laths and refits and tests the curtain. Any other parts are quoted before they're fitted.

Every powered door we fit is commissioned with force testing to BS EN 12453 and handed over with a Declaration of Conformity and UKCA or CE marking, as the Supply of Machinery (Safety) Regulations 2008 require.
Structural work
Structural alterations, such as widening the opening or fitting a new lintel, need a building warrant from the local authority before work starts.
Damaged lath repairs in Ayr: questions
Do you cover Ayr?
Yes. Ayr is part of the area we cover in Ayrshire, including KA8, KA7 and KA9. Get a guide price online, then we confirm a survey or visit date in writing. Dates depend on installer and engineer availability.
Do you repair roller doors you did not fit in Ayr?
Yes. We repair roller garage doors of any make in Ayr and across KA8, KA7 and KA9, where parts are available. If a part is no longer made, we tell you what will fit instead, or price a replacement door if that is the better option.
Can I get a price for Ayr without anyone visiting?
Yes. The guide price tool takes four steps and gives a range for your opening and door type. It is a guide, not a quote: the written quote comes after the survey or once the visit price is agreed.
Will you fix the door on the first visit?
A fault can sometimes be found and put right on the first visit, but we never promise it. If a part needs ordering, we quote for it first, make the door safe where we can, and confirm the return date in writing.
Why do the laths on my roller door slide sideways?
Laths can shift sideways within the curtain over time, which can make their ends catch on the guide rails and damage them further. Don't try to tap them back into place yourself, especially while the door is running. Request a visit, and the engineer will realign or replace the affected laths and check the guides.
Will the new laths match my door's colour?
We match the lath type, size and colour as closely as possible, but new laths can look slightly different from laths that have weathered over the years. If we expect a noticeable difference, we'll tell you before any laths are ordered, so you can decide whether a repair or a new door suits you better.
