Rules that apply in Harwich
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 Harwich: questions
Can you remove my old garage door in Harwich?
Yes. Every door price includes removing and disposing of an old roller or up-and-over door at your Harwich address, along with standard fixings and making good to the reveals. If the frame or lintel needs work, we price it at the survey before you agree.
Is an electric roller door worth it for a garage in Harwich?
That depends on how often you use the garage. An electric door opens from the car with a remote and has safety devices fitted, while a manual door costs less and suits occasional use. We price both for your Harwich garage so you can compare.
What do you check at a survey in CO12?
At a survey in CO12 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.
Can I get a price for Harwich without anyone visiting?
Yes. The guide price tool takes four steps and gives a range for your opening and door type. It is a guide, not a quote: the written quote comes after the survey or once the visit price is agreed.
Is the survey really free?
Yes. The survey for a new door is free and there's no obligation. We measure the opening, check headroom, side room, the lintel and power, then send a written quote listing the door, extras, removal of the old door and anything priced on survey. Nothing is agreed until you accept the quote in writing.
Can you fit a roller door to a garage that has never had one?
Yes. Whether the opening has no door at all, a temporary cover, or a door you want taken away, the survey works the same way. We check the lintel, reveals, floor level and headroom, and anything the opening needs first, such as a new lintel, is priced on survey and shown in your quote.
