What can you expect in Barry?
Barry sits in South Glamorgan, and Vale of Glamorgan Council is the planning authority. For most shops that means checking consent before the order is placed, not after it.
What should you think about first?
Should the stallriser stay?
A stallriser protects the bottom of the glass from kicks, trolleys and cleaning water. On older streets it is also part of the look.
How do you deal with the threshold?
We aim for level or near-level access. New doors need thought about wheelchair and pushchair users, and we check the floor before we promise anything.
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 much will it cost?

Will this need planning permission in Barry?
A like-for-like replacement often does not need permission, but a visibly different frontage usually does. The application goes to Vale of Glamorgan Council. Illuminated signs can need advertisement consent, depending on size, position and area. Listed buildings need listed building consent, and rules are set by the Welsh Government.
