What is worth knowing before you start?
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.
What affects the price most?
Width, the number of doors, glass type and any strip-out. A second door or a laminated upgrade moves the figure more than the colour does.
Is it worth repairing an old shutter?
Often, if the curtain and guides are sound. If not, we will price a replacement so that you can compare.
Will this need planning permission in March?
Usually yes, if the shutter goes on the outside. External shutters change how the building looks, so Fenland District Council will normally expect a planning application. Illuminated signs can need advertisement consent, depending on size, position and area. Listed buildings need listed building consent as well.
What do people ask?
Do you cover March?
Yes. We survey and fit here, and the survey for new work is free.
Which council handles planning in March?
Fenland District Council. We tell you at survey whether your work needs consent.
Does a new shopfront in March need planning permission?
A change to how the frontage looks usually does. Fenland District 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.
