For Leicester shops and offices, the first step is a free site survey which is how the electric roller shutters end up the right size.
How long it takes
Manufacture usually takes 2-3 weeks after survey. On site, most Leicester jobs take one or two days. Early starts and closed-day fitting are both possible.
