What should I know about damaged lath repairs in Wallington?

New laths are matched to your curtain's height, profile and type, whether single-skin or insulated.
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.
Photos of the damage and the lath ends help us confirm the visit price and the laths likely to be needed.

How does it work in Wallington?

We confirm the visit price and the laths likely to be needed. The visit is booked once matching laths are available, with the date confirmed in writing.

Powered door safety

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

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 Wallington: questions

How much is a visit in Wallington?

Prices for damaged lath repairs start from £149 inc VAT, and the price is agreed before anyone comes out. Any parts not covered by that price are quoted before they are fitted, so you can decide on the spot. The guide prices are the same in Wallington as elsewhere we cover.

Can I get a price for Wallington 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.

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

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 Wallington visit date is confirmed in writing.

Do you cover Wallington?

Yes. Wallington is part of the area we cover in Greater London, including SM6, SM5 and SM1. Get a guide price online, then we confirm a survey or visit date in writing. Dates depend on installer and engineer availability.

Can you replace just one lath on a roller garage door?

Yes, if the rest of the curtain is sound and a matching lath is available. The damaged lath is slid out, a new one with the same profile is fitted, and the curtain is refitted and run through its guides. Photos of the damage and the lath ends help us confirm what's needed before booking.

My car hit the garage door. Can I still use it?

If the curtain is out of its guides, running at an angle or catching as it moves, stop using it. Switch an electric door off at the isolator, keep people and cars clear of a part-open door, and don't force the curtain. Take photos and request a visit so the engineer can check the laths, guides and motor.
