Rules that apply in Bishop Auckland
Powered door safety
Every powered door we fit is commissioned with force testing to BS EN 12453 and handed over with a Declaration of Conformity and UKCA or CE marking, as the Supply of Machinery (Safety) Regulations 2008 require.
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 repairs in Bishop Auckland: questions
Can I get a price for Bishop Auckland 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.
What should I do while I wait for a visit in Bishop Auckland?
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 Bishop Auckland visit date is confirmed in writing.
How much is a visit in Bishop Auckland?
Prices for roller garage door repairs start from £119 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 Bishop Auckland as elsewhere we cover.
Do you charge more for Bishop Auckland than other towns in County Durham?
No. Guide prices are the same for Bishop Auckland as for anywhere else we cover in County Durham. 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.
Is there a charge if the door can't be repaired?
The visit price is agreed before we come out and covers diagnosis and the first 30 minutes, so it applies whatever the outcome. If the engineer finds the door isn't worth repairing, they'll explain why, and we can price a new door for you to compare. Nothing else is charged without your agreement.
Do you repair sectional or up-and-over garage doors?
No. We work on roller garage doors only, so we don't repair sectional or up-and-over doors. If you have an up-and-over door that's failing and you'd like to change it, we can replace it with a roller door; that work starts with a survey and a written quote rather than a repair visit.
