Rules that apply in Carshalton
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 Carshalton: questions
Do you cover Carshalton?
Yes. Carshalton is part of the area we cover in Greater London, including SM5, SM1 and SM6. Get a guide price online, then we confirm a survey or visit date in writing. Dates depend on installer and engineer availability.
What do you check at a survey in SM5?
At a survey in SM5 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.
Is an electric roller door worth it for a garage in Carshalton?
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 Carshalton garage so you can compare.
Can you remove my old garage door in Carshalton?
Yes. Every door price includes removing and disposing of an old roller or up-and-over door at your Carshalton 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.
How long does it take to fit a roller garage door?
Fitting a domestic roller door on a sound opening normally takes a day or less, including removing the old door, commissioning and handover. Extra work such as a new lintel, building out the reveals or a new fused spur can add time. Your fitting date depends on installer availability and is confirmed in writing before the day.
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.
