How much does a new garage door motor cost in Alness?

You will know the visit price before we book. Any parts or extra work are quoted and agreed with you first.
What should you do until the engineer arrives in Alness?
If a spring has broken, a cable has come off or the door hangs crooked, stop using it, keep people and pets clear and do not try to force it open or closed. Leave the operator unplugged until the engineer has checked it.
Scotland has no Part P, but the socket or spur for an operator should be installed and certified to BS 7671.
