What should you think about first?
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 is the frontage measured?
We measure the structural opening, not the old frame. Lintel condition, floor level and how square the opening is all get recorded at survey.
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 Newmarket?
Probably, if it is external. West Suffolk Council decides. Many councils resist solid external shutters, and some resist perforated ones too. 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 Newmarket?
Yes. We survey and fit here, and the survey for new work is free.
Which council handles planning in Newmarket?
West Suffolk Council. We tell you at survey whether your work needs consent.
How soon can you fit an aluminium shopfront in Newmarket?
Lead time is 3 to 4 weeks after drawing sign-off. We book the fitting days around your trading.
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.
