What should I know about roller garage door replacement in South Croydon?

The opening is measured again at the free survey, so the new door suits the opening rather than copying the old door's size.
Where an old electric door already has power near the box, the supply is checked before it is reused for the new door.
Moving from single-skin to insulated laths reduces heat loss, draughts and noise in a garage you use every day.
If only a lath or two is damaged on a sound door, we'll tell you that a repair may be better value.

How does it work in South Croydon?

We measure the opening, check how the old door is fixed, and look at headroom, side room, the lintel and power. Your written quote lists the new door, extras, removal and disposal of the old one, and anything priced on survey.

Rules that apply in South Croydon

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 South Croydon: questions

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

No. Guide prices are the same for South Croydon 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.

What do you check at a survey in CR2?

At a survey in CR2 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.

Is an electric roller door worth it for a garage in South Croydon?

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 South Croydon garage so you can compare.

Can I get a price for South Croydon 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.

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.

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.
