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

Where an old electric door already has power near the box, the supply is checked before it is reused for the new door.
Reveals, lintel and fixing points are checked once the old door is off, and any making good is agreed with you first.
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.

Rules that apply in Kelso

Planning

Replacing a garage door is not usually development that needs planning permission in Scotland. Listed building consent applies to listed buildings, and conservation-area controls, planning conditions or title conditions can restrict changes to how a garage looks, so check before ordering.

Structural work

Structural alterations, such as widening the opening or fitting a new lintel, need a building warrant from the local authority before work starts.

Roller garage door replacement in Kelso: questions

Can I message you a photo of my garage in Kelso?

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 Kelso. 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 Kelso?

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 Kelso as elsewhere we cover.

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

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 Kelso garage so you can compare.

Do you cover Kelso?

Yes. Kelso is part of the area we cover in the Scottish Borders, including TD5. Get a guide price online, then we confirm a survey or visit date in writing. Dates depend on installer and engineer availability.

Will a new insulated door make my garage warm?

Insulated laths reduce heat loss, draughts and noise compared with single-skin laths, so the garage is more comfortable to use. The door still isn't part of the house's insulated envelope, and the walls, roof and floor matter too, so think of it as an improvement rather than turning the garage into a heated room.

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.
