Roller garage door motor replacement in Limavady: questions
What should I do while I wait for a visit in Limavady?
If the door is stuck part-open, keep people, pets and cars clear of it and switch off the power at the isolator if it is safe to reach. Do not force the curtain or open the roller box. Your Limavady visit date is confirmed in writing.
Do you repair roller doors you did not fit in Limavady?
Yes. We repair roller garage doors of any make in Limavady and across BT49, 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.
Can I message you a photo of my garage in Limavady?
Yes. Photos of the opening, the inside of the garage above the door and any existing door help us give a more useful guide price for Limavady. Send them by WhatsApp or mention them in your enquiry, and we will reply in writing.
How much is a visit in Limavady?
Prices for roller garage door motor replacement start from £395 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 Limavady as elsewhere we cover.
Can you replace the motor on any make of roller door?
We replace tubular motors on electric roller garage doors of any make, provided a compatible motor is available for the barrel size and curtain weight. Send us details of the control box and the door size and we'll confirm before booking. If a matching motor isn't available, we'll explain the options, including a new control box or a new door.
Should I replace the motor or the whole door?
Replace the motor when the rest of the door is sound: the curtain runs straight, the laths are undamaged, and the guides and barrel are in good order. If several major parts are worn, or the door has other recurring faults, a new door may be better value. The engineer will tell you plainly what they find.
