Rules that apply in Braintree
Planning
Replacing a garage door is not usually development that needs planning permission. Check first if your home is listed (listed building consent covers works that affect its character), sits in a conservation area with an Article 4 direction, or is on an estate where planning conditions or covenants control garage doors.
Electrics
An electric door needs a power supply near the roller box. Electrical work must meet BS 7671, and in England some domestic electrical work is notifiable under Part P, so it is done by a registered competent person or signed off by building control.
Roller garage door installation in Braintree: questions
How long does it take to fit a roller garage door in Braintree?
Most single domestic roller doors are fitted in a day once the door has been made, including removing the old door. Wider doors, conversions that need building work and jobs where power has to be run can take longer; the quote says what to expect.
What do you check at a survey in CM7?
At a survey in CM7 we measure the width and height of the opening, the headroom above it for the roller box, the side room for the guide rails and the floor level. We also look at the lintel and where power can come from for an electric door.
Do I need permission for a new roller garage door in Braintree?
Replacing a garage door is not usually development that needs planning permission in England, and widening the opening needs building control approval. If you live in a listed building, a conservation area or on an estate with covenants or planning conditions, check before ordering.
Do you charge more for Braintree than other towns in Essex?
No. Guide prices are the same for Braintree as for anywhere else we cover in Essex. 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.
Who carries out the installation?
Installation may be carried out by approved subcontracted installers working under our supervision and on our terms. Whoever fits the door, your contract is always with S&K Property Investments and Improvement Ltd: one company, one contract, from the survey through to commissioning and the handover of your paperwork.
