What should I know about damaged lath repairs in Chalk Farm?

New laths can look slightly different from weathered ones, and we'll say so before any laths are ordered.
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.

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.

Damaged lath repairs in Chalk Farm: questions

Can I message you a photo of my garage in Chalk Farm?

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 Chalk Farm. Send them by WhatsApp or mention them in your enquiry, and we will reply in writing.

Do you cover Chalk Farm?

Yes. Chalk Farm is part of the area we cover in Greater London, including NW3, NW5 and NW1. Get a guide price online, then we confirm a survey or visit date in writing. Dates depend on installer and engineer availability.

Do you charge more for Chalk Farm than other towns in Greater London?

No. Guide prices are the same for Chalk Farm as for anywhere else we cover in Greater London. The written quote reflects your opening and the door you choose, not your postcode, apart from islands and remote areas where any travel cost is shown in advance.

What should I do while I wait for a visit in Chalk Farm?

If the door is stuck part-open, keep people, pets and cars clear of it and switch off the power at the isolator if it is safe to reach. Do not force the curtain or open the roller box. Your Chalk Farm visit date is confirmed in writing.

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.

Do you replace laths on insulated roller doors?

Yes. We replace damaged laths on single-skin and insulated roller garage doors of any make, provided matching laths are available. Insulated laths are double-skinned aluminium filled with foam, and they come in different heights, so the new laths are matched to your curtain's size and profile.
