Damaged lath repairs in Welwyn Garden City: questions
Do you repair roller doors you did not fit in Welwyn Garden City?
Yes. We repair roller garage doors of any make in Welwyn Garden City and across AL8, AL7 and AL6, 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.
How much is a visit in Welwyn Garden City?
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 Welwyn Garden City as elsewhere we cover.
Can I message you a photo of my garage in Welwyn Garden City?
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 Welwyn Garden City. Send them by WhatsApp or mention them in your enquiry, and we will reply in writing.
Do you charge more for Welwyn Garden City than other towns in Hertfordshire?
No. Guide prices are the same for Welwyn Garden City as for anywhere else we cover in Hertfordshire. 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 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.
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.
