What should I know about damaged lath repairs in Dudley?
- New laths are matched to your curtain's height, profile and type, whether single-skin or insulated.
- Photos of the damage and the lath ends help us confirm the visit price and the laths likely to be needed.
- 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.

Rules that apply in Dudley
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 Dudley: questions
Do you charge more for Dudley than other towns in the West Midlands?
No. Guide prices are the same for Dudley as for anywhere else we cover in the West Midlands. 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.
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.
Do you repair roller doors you did not fit in Dudley?
Yes. We repair roller garage doors of any make in Dudley and across DY1, DY2 and DY5, 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.
How much is a visit in Dudley?
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 Dudley as elsewhere we cover.
Will the new laths match my door's colour?
We match the lath type, size and colour as closely as possible, but new laths can look slightly different from laths that have weathered over the years. If we expect a noticeable difference, we'll tell you before any laths are ordered, so you can decide whether a repair or a new door suits you better.
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.
