We will need to quote you for this if in the unlikely event we're unable to fix it without parts being needed or if any extra work / labour is required.

Please note 99% of call-outs repairs result in a repair at no extra cost but if extra work / labour or any parts are required we will quote for this.

(If you need a labour-only job, for example removing an existing door or shutter, the price is still standard at £120 + VAT per hour.)

Roller Shutter Repairs Trafford - 24/7 Service


There are many reasons you may need roller shutter repairs in Trafford.

Whether you’ve noticed a minor issue or a serious fault, it’s always better to have your shutters checked quickly rather than risk further damage, downtime, or leaving your property exposed. That’s why we offer a 24/7 emergency repairs service, available day and night.

Sometimes a shutter can fail for no obvious reason – it may simply be wear and tear, old age, a worn motor, loose components, or a build-up of debris. In other cases, there may be a deeper fault that needs attention before it develops into a more costly repair. 

Tackling issues early not only restores security but also improves the efficiency and lifespan of your roller shutters. Our engineers are highly trained, experienced, and fully equipped to handle repairs on the first visit wherever possible.

When we arrive, we’ll carry out a quick diagnosis and clearly explain what needs to be done. With your approval, we’ll complete the repair and get your shutter back to full working order. You can count on UK Doors & Shutters, day or night!

Signs You Require Roller Shutter Repair


Recognising early warning signs that your roller shutters need attention is essential for keeping them operating safely and efficiently. With over 30 years of experience working on all types and models of roller shutters, we’ve identified some of the most common issues that indicate a repair may be needed:


Jamming or Sticking


If your shutter feels stiff, resists movement, or struggles when opening or closing, this usually points to rust build-up, misalignment, worn components, or something being out of place. It’s best to have a professional inspect it before the issue develops further.

 

Visible Damage

 

Small dents, holes, bends, or light cosmetic damage may seem harmless at first, but they can weaken the shutter over time. Left untreated, these can lead to larger, more costly repairs. Tackling them early is always the safest and most cost-effective option.


Strange or Unusual Noises


Grinding, squeaking, rattling, or any unfamiliar noises often indicate a deeper mechanical problem. These sounds commonly come from failing motors, loose parts, or worn mechanisms. If you hear anything unusual, it’s wise to book an inspection with UK Doors and Shutters for complete peace of mind.

How long do roller shutters usually last?

With proper care and maintenance, high-quality roller shutters can last anywhere from 10 to 20 years, depending on usage and environmental conditions. At UK Doors and Shutters, we supply only premium roller shutters, offering a range of options to suit different budgets while ensuring long-lasting durability. Regular servicing not only helps extend the lifespan of your shutters but also gives you peace of mind.

What maintenance can prevent roller shutter problems?

Proper maintenance is key to keeping your roller shutters functioning smoothly and extending their lifespan. Regularly lubricating tracks and bearings, cleaning away debris, checking for loose slats, and testing the motor can help prevent common problems.

Why is my shutter making a grinding noise when closing?

A grinding noise when your roller shutter is closing usually indicates a problem with worn bearings, motor issues, or debris in the track. This type of issue should be inspected immediately to prevent further damage or costly repairs. If you notice any grinding or unusual sounds, contact UK Doors and Shutters.
