What should I know about roller garage door replacement in Oxford?
- 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.
- We take down and dispose of the old roller or up-and-over door, and that is included in every door price.
- Security-rated models are available, and we show you the manufacturer's certificate for the exact door being quoted.
How does it work in Oxford?

Rules that apply in Oxford
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 Oxford: questions
How long does it take to fit a roller garage door in Oxford?
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 OX1?
At a survey in OX1 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 get a price for Oxford 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.
Do you cover Oxford?
Yes. Oxford is part of the area we cover in Oxfordshire, including OX1, OX2 and OX3. Get a guide price online, then we confirm a survey or visit date in writing. Dates depend on installer and engineer availability.
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.
