Our free survey checks the opening, headroom above it, room either side for the tracks, garage depth and where an operator will be powered from.
Do you need permission in Hamilton?
Hamilton falls under South Lanarkshire Council for planning and building control, which is the place to check if your home is listed or in a conservation area.
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.

Questions from Hamilton customers
Is an up-and-over door dangerous when its springs go?
A failing up-and-over door can drop suddenly. If yours is slamming shut or feels heavy, stop using it and get it checked.
How much does it cost to replace an up-and-over door with a sectional?
A typical single replacement, with the old door removed and a new insulated electric sectional fitted, is around £2,095–£2,795.
Do you cover Hamilton?
Yes. We cover Hamilton, including postcode districts ML3. Installation and visit dates depend on installer availability and are agreed when you book.
Will South Lanarkshire Council need to approve my new garage door?
Usually not for a like-for-like door. In Scotland a visibly different door in a conservation area is likely to need permission, and listed buildings need consent. If in doubt, ask South Lanarkshire Council before ordering.
