What can you expect in Ayr?
Local rules matter more than people expect. South Ayrshire Council handles planning for Ayr, and its view of external shutters and frontage changes shapes what we recommend.
What makes the difference?
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.
What does the written quotation show?
Every item: frame, glass, doors, stallriser, strip-out and any electrics. It stays valid for 90 days, and nothing is ordered until you accept.
What are the guide prices?
| Opening width | Typical unit | Guide price plus VAT |

| Up to 3 m | A typical single shop unit | £2,450 to £3,995 |
| 3 to 4 m | A wider single unit | £3,195 to £5,195 |
| 4 to 5 m | A double-fronted or corner unit | £3,995 to £6,495 |
| 5 to 6 m | A large double unit | £4,795 to £7,995 |
Guide prices, not offers. Your written quotation sets the final figure.
Do you need consent in Ayr?
It depends on how much changes. A new layout, new materials or a moved door usually needs permission from South Ayrshire Council. In Scotland, work can also need a building warrant before it starts, and listed buildings need listed building consent from the council.
