What should I know about damaged lath repairs in Thornaby-on-Tees?

Photos of the damage and the lath ends help us confirm the visit price and the laths likely to be needed.
New laths can look slightly different from weathered ones, and we'll say so before any laths are ordered.
On electric doors, the safety devices are checked again after the curtain has been refitted.
New laths are matched to your curtain's height, profile and type, whether single-skin or insulated.

Damaged lath repairs in Thornaby-on-Tees: questions

Do you repair roller doors you did not fit in Thornaby-on-Tees?

Yes. We repair roller garage doors of any make in Thornaby-on-Tees and across TS17, TS18 and TS16, 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.

Do you charge more for Thornaby-on-Tees than other towns in North Yorkshire?

No. Guide prices are the same for Thornaby-on-Tees 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.

Can I message you a photo of my garage in Thornaby-on-Tees?

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 Thornaby-on-Tees. Send them by WhatsApp or mention them in your enquiry, and we will reply in writing.

How much is a visit in Thornaby-on-Tees?

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 Thornaby-on-Tees as elsewhere we cover.

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.
