Guide price for a cassette sectional door in Livingston
Guide price: £2,195–£2,895 inc VAT. The figure includes VAT, fitting and taking away a standard old door. Your survey turns it into a fixed price.
At the free survey we measure everything the manufacturer needs, check the brickwork, lintel and floor, and agree the door details with you.
Do you need permission in Livingston?
The planning authority for Livingston is West Lothian Council. A replacement garage door is usually outside planning control, but it is worth a quick check where conditions apply.
Scottish rules normally allow a like-for-like garage door without permission. Conservation areas are stricter because the householder permitted development class for external alterations does not apply there.
