How does it work in Dorchester?
We aim to fit the survey around your opening hours in Dorchester, and we also cover Weymouth and Portland. You get the same written quotation wherever the shop is.
What should you think about first?
Steel or aluminium laths?
Steel is stronger and heavier. Aluminium is lighter and quieter, which helps under flats. Most shops are well served by either.
Does a shutter need planning permission?
An external shutter usually does. Many councils resist solid external shutters, and some resist perforated ones too. An internal grille or shutter is usually the safer route, so we can advise what to check before you order.
What will my insurer want?
Some insurers name a shutter type or rating, and many ask for locks and service records. Ask them before you order, as it saves a change later.

Will this need planning permission in Dorchester?
Usually yes, if the shutter goes on the outside. External shutters change how the building looks, so Dorset Council will normally expect a planning application. Illuminated signs can need advertisement consent, depending on size, position and area. Listed buildings need listed building consent as well.
