What should I know about damaged lath repairs in Melton Mowbray?

The curtain is refitted to the barrel and guides and run to check it travels smoothly before handover.
Guide rails and the bottom rail are checked for damage too, and any extra parts are quoted before fitting.
Damaged laths are slid out of the curtain and replaced individually, without replacing the whole door.
New laths are matched to your curtain's height, profile and type, whether single-skin or insulated.

How does it work in Melton Mowbray?

The engineer replaces the damaged laths and refits and tests the curtain. Any other parts are quoted before they're fitted.

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 Melton Mowbray: questions

Do you repair roller doors you did not fit in Melton Mowbray?

Yes. We repair roller garage doors of any make in Melton Mowbray and across LE13 and LE14, 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.

What should I do while I wait for a visit in Melton Mowbray?

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 Melton Mowbray visit date is confirmed in writing.

Do you cover Melton Mowbray?

Yes. Melton Mowbray is part of the area we cover in Leicestershire, including LE13 and LE14. Get a guide price online, then we confirm a survey or visit date in writing. Dates depend on installer and engineer availability.

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.

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.

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.
