How the Process Works
Step 1. Professional Assessment, £79 Fully Refundable
One of our engineers will visit your Braintree property and carry out a thorough inspection of all panels, rollers, tracks, hinges, seals, and locking mechanisms, including checking toe and heel alignment and frame fixings. The assessment fee is £79, fully refundable against any repair you choose to go ahead with. You only pay for the work you actually need, with a clear written quote before anything is confirmed.
Step 2. Clear Written Quote
Following the assessment you will receive a written quotation listing essential repairs separately from any optional improvements. You are free to approve, decline, or ask questions before any work is booked.
Step 3. Repair Appointment
Once you approve the quote we schedule a convenient appointment. Our engineers carry out all agreed repairs using quality replacement parts, including realignment and servicing of misaligned or dropped panels, roller, hinge, handle, and gasket replacement, lock and mechanism adjustment, and sourcing of hard-to-find or discontinued parts through our trusted UK and European supplier network.
Step 4. Payment on Completion
Payment is only taken once the work has been completed to your satisfaction. There are no deposits, no hidden charges, and no payment until you are happy with the result.
