Rules that apply in Chelsea
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 Chelsea: questions
How much does roller garage door installation cost in Chelsea?
Our guide price for roller garage door installation is from £1,195 inc VAT. The figure for your garage depends on the opening size, the door specification and any extras, and is confirmed in a written quote after a free survey. The guide prices are the same in Chelsea as elsewhere we cover.
How long does it take to fit a roller garage door in Chelsea?
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.
Do I need permission for a new roller garage door in Chelsea?
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.
Is an electric roller door worth it for a garage in Chelsea?
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 Chelsea garage so you can compare.
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.
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.
