What should Wigston homeowners know about replacement sectional doors?
Does the sectional door go behind or in the opening?
Fitting behind the opening usually gives the best clear width and seals well against the inside face of the wall. In some garages fitting within the opening is necessary; the survey decides.
Will the opening need work?
Most openings take a sectional door with little preparation. Sometimes old timber subframes, damaged brick returns or an uneven floor need attention first. The survey picks this up so the price does not change on the day.

Questions from Wigston customers
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.
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.

We cover Wigston across postcode districts LE2, LE8, LE18, along with nearby Oadby, Leicester and Earl Shilton. Dates are agreed when you book.
Will the local district or borough council need to approve my new garage door?
Usually not. Replacing a garage door, including with an electric sectional door, does not normally need planning permission in England unless the house is listed, in a conservation area or Article 4 area, or has planning conditions affecting the garage. If in doubt, ask the local district or borough council before ordering.
