What should I know about damaged lath repairs in Purley?

Damaged laths are slid out of the curtain and replaced individually, without replacing the whole door.
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.
New laths are matched to your curtain's height, profile and type, whether single-skin or insulated.

Damaged lath repairs in Purley: questions

What should I do while I wait for a visit in Purley?

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 Purley visit date is confirmed in writing.

Do you cover Purley?

Yes. Purley is part of the area we cover in Greater London, including CR8, CR2 and CR5. 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 Purley than other towns in Greater London?

No. Guide prices are the same for Purley 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.

Do you repair roller doors you did not fit in Purley?

Yes. We repair roller garage doors of any make in Purley and across CR8, CR2 and CR5, 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.

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.
