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

Security-rated models are available, and we show you the manufacturer's certificate for the exact door being quoted.
We take down and dispose of the old roller or up-and-over door, and that is included in every door price.
Where an old electric door already has power near the box, the supply is checked before it is reused for the new door.
Springs on old manual doors hold stored energy, so our fitters release them with the proper tools before dismantling anything.

How does it work in Thamesmead?

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 Thamesmead

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 Thamesmead: questions

What do you check at a survey in SE28?

At a survey in SE28 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 I message you a photo of my garage in Thamesmead?

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 Thamesmead. Send them by WhatsApp or mention them in your enquiry, and we will reply in writing.

How much does roller garage door replacement cost in Thamesmead?

Our guide price for roller garage door replacement is from £1,195 inc VAT. The figure for your garage depends on the opening size, the door specification and any extras, and is confirmed in a written quote after a free survey. The guide prices are the same in Thamesmead as elsewhere we cover.

Can I get a price for Thamesmead 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 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.

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.
