Window Manual Roller Shutters Repair & Maintenance

Luke requested 3 quotes from Window Professionals in Waurn Ponds

  There are 3 shutters at my place needing attention. The first two are hopefully relatively straightforward. The winding cable has snapped due to being twisted too many times. Obviously the cable needs to be replaced but possibly the whole winding unit as well, as this is the 3rd time this has happened over the years.

The other one is a bit trickier. The shutters have been not working correctly for some time now.

It doesn't wind up or down without getting seemingly jammed all the time. Opening it up inside (the house) to the small box with the cable usually gets it untangled but obviously this shouldn't need to be done all the time. Once it is untangled, it still doesn't 'drop' properly. What I mean by this is each section outside doesn't sit together like it's supposed to and not allow any light through. I then have to go outside and push the whole thing up a bit to get it to drop with more force which usually (but not always) makes it sit together properly.

This has been tinkered with a couple of times for only a limited benefit so I wonder if it's not worth replacing the whole winder, cable and other bits in between. Obviously I defer to the experts though.

That was all very long winded but hopefully explained it in enough detail.
