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

Reveals, lintel and fixing points are checked once the old door is off, and any making good is agreed with you first.
Springs on old manual doors hold stored energy, so our fitters release them with the proper tools before dismantling anything.
Moving from single-skin to insulated laths reduces heat loss, draughts and noise in a garage you use every day.
Where an old electric door already has power near the box, the supply is checked before it is reused for the new door.

Rules that apply in Wigston

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 Wigston: questions

Do you charge more for Wigston than other towns in Leicestershire?

No. Guide prices are the same for Wigston as for anywhere else we cover in Leicestershire. 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.

How long does it take to fit a roller garage door in Wigston?

Most single domestic roller doors are fitted in a day once the door has been made, including removing the old door. Wider doors, conversions that need building work and jobs where power has to be run can take longer; the quote says what to expect.

What do you check at a survey in LE18?

At a survey in LE18 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.

Do you cover Wigston?

Yes. Wigston is part of the area we cover in Leicestershire, including LE18, LE8 and LE2. Get a guide price online, then we confirm a survey or visit date in writing. Dates depend on installer and engineer availability.

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.

How long will a new roller garage door last?

Lifespan depends on use, exposure and care rather than a fixed number of years. Keeping the guide rails clean, using only the lubricant the manufacturer allows, testing the safety devices monthly and having the door serviced all help. The manufacturer's warranty terms for your door and motor are set out in writing in your quote.
