What should I know about damaged lath repairs in Ormskirk?

New laths can look slightly different from weathered ones, and we'll say so before any laths are ordered.
The curtain is refitted to the barrel and guides and run to check it travels smoothly before handover.
Photos of the damage and the lath ends help us confirm the visit price and the laths likely to be needed.
On electric doors, the safety devices are checked again after the curtain has been refitted.

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 Ormskirk: questions

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.

How much is a visit in Ormskirk?

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 Ormskirk as elsewhere we cover.

Can I get a price for Ormskirk 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.

Do you cover Ormskirk?

Yes. Ormskirk is part of the area we cover in Lancashire, including L39 and L40. Get a guide price online, then we confirm a survey or visit date in writing. Dates depend on installer and engineer availability.

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.

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.
