What should I know about damaged lath repairs in Birkenhead?

New laths are matched to your curtain's height, profile and type, whether single-skin or insulated.
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.
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 Birkenhead?

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.

Rules that apply in Birkenhead

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 Birkenhead: questions

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

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 Birkenhead visit date is confirmed in writing.

How much is a visit in Birkenhead?

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 Birkenhead as elsewhere we cover.

Can I message you a photo of my garage in Birkenhead?

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 Birkenhead. Send them by WhatsApp or mention them in your enquiry, and we will reply in writing.

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.

Why do the laths on my roller door slide sideways?

Laths can shift sideways within the curtain over time, which can make their ends catch on the guide rails and damage them further. Don't try to tap them back into place yourself, especially while the door is running. Request a visit, and the engineer will realign or replace the affected laths and check the guides.

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.
