Casey was part of the Gold Creek rural property until 1990 and had no residents until 2010, so the shutters here are all roughly the same age. That is unusual, and it makes the pattern predictable. Everything went in with the build, everything has had the same fifteen or so Canberra winters, and the components reaching the end of their service life tend to do it across a whole street at once. The suburb was planned for around 1,940 dwellings including medium density near the commercial centres, so we work on freestanding houses and units here in about equal measure.
We cover all of Casey in the 2913 postcode, from the earlier stages through to the northern end nearest Taylor. Ngunnawal and Nicholls adjoin the suburb, and Crace, Moncrieff and the Gungahlin town centre are close enough that we can take several Gungahlin jobs in one trip.
Modern construction with fifteen years of use behind it. The wall and the fixings are usually sound, so the fault is nearly always in the mechanism or the electronics.
On a house this age the temptation is to assume the whole unit is worn out, and it usually is not. The curtain, the rails and the axle are commonly in good shape and the failure is one component. We will tell you which one, and where it is a repair we will do the repair rather than quote you a replacement. If the original brand is no longer supported we will say so up front, because that is the situation where a swap genuinely makes sense.
