- Guide rails are cleaned and checked for wear, bends and secure fixings so the curtain can run freely.
- On electric doors, the motor, limits, control box and remotes are checked and adjusted where needed.
- The curtain is checked for dented, split or slipping laths, and the bottom rail and seal for wear.

Roller garage door servicing in Chester-le-Street: questions
Can I message you a photo of my garage in Chester-le-Street?
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 Chester-le-Street. Send them by WhatsApp or mention them in your enquiry, and we will reply in writing.
Can I get a price for Chester-le-Street 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.
What should I do while I wait for a visit in Chester-le-Street?
If the door is stuck part-open, keep people, pets and cars clear of it and switch off the power at the isolator if it is safe to reach. Do not force the curtain or open the roller box. Your Chester-le-Street visit date is confirmed in writing.
Do you charge more for Chester-le-Street than other towns in County Durham?
No. Guide prices are the same for Chester-le-Street as for anywhere else we cover in County Durham. 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.
Should I oil my roller garage door?
Not unless the manufacturer's instructions say so. Many roller doors use a dry or silicone lubricant, if any at all, and the guide rails are usually best kept clean and dry. During a service, the engineer uses only the product type the manufacturer specifies for your door.
Does a service affect my warranty?
The manufacturer's warranty terms for your door and motor set out what's required, and some ask for regular maintenance. Check the terms supplied with your door, or in your quote if we fitted it. Keeping a record of each service, including the date and what was done, is sensible whatever the terms say.
