What should you think about first?
What about the fascia and sign?
We set out the fascia at the same time, so your sign fixings and any shutter box do not clash. Illuminated signs can need advertisement consent, depending on size, position and area.
Can I keep trading during the work?
Often, in part. Fitting days can be planned for your quiet days, and closed-day or out-of-hours work can be arranged.
Can you repair the frontage too?
Yes. We repair doors, closers, locks, hinges and beads, and glass can be measured at the same visit.
Do you need consent in Aberdeen?
Usually yes, if the shutter goes on the outside. External shutters change how the building looks, so Aberdeen City Council will normally expect a planning application. In Scotland, work can also need a building warrant before it starts, and listed buildings need listed building consent from the council.
What do people ask?
Do you cover Aberdeen?
Yes. We survey and fit here, and the survey for new work is free.
Which council handles planning in Aberdeen?
Aberdeen City Council. We tell you at survey whether your work needs consent.
Can you add a shutter to the new shopfront?
Yes, and it is best planned now. We can price the frontage and shutter as one job.
Do you cover the postcodes around Aberdeen?
Yes, including AB11, AB25 and AB10.
