What is worth knowing?
Which colours work best?
Dark greys and black are the most requested because they frame the shop well. In a conservation area, ask us first, as colour can matter to the council.
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.
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.
Will this need planning permission in Ardrossan?
Usually yes, if the look of the frontage changes. Replacing like for like may not need permission, but North Ayrshire Council has the final say. In Scotland, work can also need a building warrant before it starts, and listed buildings need listed building consent from the council.

Do you cover the postcodes around Ardrossan?

Does a new shopfront in Ardrossan need planning permission?

Lead time is 3 to 4 weeks after drawing sign-off. We book the fitting days around your trading.
Can you fit it around my trading hours?
