- Reveals, lintel and fixing points are checked once the old door is off, and any making good is agreed with you first.
- If only a lath or two is damaged on a sound door, we'll tell you that a repair may be better value.

Rules that apply in Ely
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.
Structural work
Widening the opening, removing a central pier or fitting a new lintel is structural work that needs Building Regulations approval from building control before it starts.
Roller garage door replacement in Ely: questions
Do I need permission for a new roller garage door in Ely?
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 Ely?
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 Ely garage so you can compare.
Do you charge more for Ely than other towns in Cambridgeshire?
No. Guide prices are the same for Ely as for anywhere else we cover in Cambridgeshire. 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.
Do you cover Ely?
Yes. Ely is part of the area we cover in Cambridgeshire, including CB7 and CB6. Get a guide price online, then we confirm a survey or visit date in writing. Dates depend on installer and engineer availability.
Will a new insulated door make my garage warm?
Insulated laths reduce heat loss, draughts and noise compared with single-skin laths, so the garage is more comfortable to use. The door still isn't part of the house's insulated envelope, and the walls, roof and floor matter too, so think of it as an improvement rather than turning the garage into a heated room.
Can you replace a roller door made by a different company?
Yes. We replace roller garage doors of any make, and up-and-over doors too. The old door is removed and disposed of as part of the price, so it doesn't matter who made or fitted it. What matters is the opening itself, which we measure afresh at the free survey before quoting.
