What should I know about damaged lath repairs in Scarborough?

On electric doors, the safety devices are checked again after the curtain has been refitted.
Guide rails and the bottom rail are checked for damage too, and any extra parts are quoted before fitting.
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.

Damaged lath repairs in Scarborough: questions

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

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

Do you charge more for Scarborough than other towns in North Yorkshire?

No. Guide prices are the same for Scarborough as for anywhere else we cover in North Yorkshire. 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.

How much is a visit in Scarborough?

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 Scarborough as elsewhere we cover.

Do you cover Scarborough?

Yes. Scarborough is part of the area we cover in North Yorkshire, including YO12 and YO11. 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.

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.
