What should I know about roller garage door replacement in Coulsdon?

We take down and dispose of the old roller or up-and-over door, and that is included in every door price.
If only a lath or two is damaged on a sound door, we'll tell you that a repair may be better value.
Springs on old manual doors hold stored energy, so our fitters release them with the proper tools before dismantling anything.
The opening is measured again at the free survey, so the new door suits the opening rather than copying the old door's size.

When you accept the quote, we confirm your fitting date in writing, based on installer availability. The old door is removed, the new one is fitted and commissioned, and the paperwork is handed over.

Rules that apply in Coulsdon

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 Coulsdon: questions

What do you check at a survey in CR5?

At a survey in CR5 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.

Can you remove my old garage door in Coulsdon?

Yes. Every door price includes removing and disposing of an old roller or up-and-over door at your Coulsdon 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.

Do you charge more for Coulsdon than other towns in Greater London?

No. Guide prices are the same for Coulsdon as for anywhere else we cover in Greater London. 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 the survey in Coulsdon really free?

Yes. For a new door, a replacement or a conversion, the survey is free and there is no obligation to go ahead. We measure the opening, check the lintel, headroom, side room and power, and send a written quote afterwards.

Is VAT included in the replacement price?

Yes. Home prices are shown including VAT. Garage doors are standard-rated at 20% and there's no reduced rate for them, so the figure in your written quote is the price you pay, unless you change the specification or further work is agreed with you in writing.

Can I keep my old roller box and just change the curtain?

Our replacement prices are for a complete new door, because a new curtain needs a barrel, box, guides and controls that are matched to it. If only a few laths are damaged on an otherwise sound door, a lath repair may be the better option, and we'll say so if that's the case.
