What should I know about damaged lath repairs in Banbury?

The curtain is refitted to the barrel and guides and run to check it travels smoothly before handover.
New laths are matched to your curtain's height, profile and type, whether single-skin or insulated.
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.

Damaged lath repairs in Banbury: questions

Do you charge more for Banbury than other towns in Oxfordshire?

No. Guide prices are the same for Banbury as for anywhere else we cover in Oxfordshire. 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 Banbury?

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 Banbury as elsewhere we cover.

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

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 Banbury visit date is confirmed in writing.

Do you cover Banbury?

Yes. Banbury is part of the area we cover in Oxfordshire, including OX16 and OX17. Get a guide price online, then we confirm a survey or visit date in writing. Dates depend on installer and engineer availability.

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.

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.
