What is worth knowing before you start?
Which glass should go in?
Safety glass is needed in doors, side panels and low-level panes. Laminated glass is worth the extra if the street has a history of break-ins.
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.
How do I stop it happening again?
Most failures give a warning: noise, slow running, a door that needs a push. A planned service catches these early.
Will this need planning permission in Largs?
Probably, if it is external. North Ayrshire Council decides. Many councils resist solid external shutters, and some resist perforated ones too. 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 Largs?
Yes. We survey and fit here, and the survey for new work is free.
Which council handles planning in Largs?
North Ayrshire Council. We tell you at survey whether your work needs consent.
Does a new shopfront in Largs need planning permission?
A change to how the frontage looks usually does. North Ayrshire Council is the council to check with, and we advise at survey.
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.
