What should you check before you decide?
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.
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.
Which glass should go in?
Safety glass is needed in doors, side panels and low-level panes. Laminated glass is worth the extra if the street has a history of break-ins.
Will this need planning permission in Blaydon?
A like-for-like replacement often does not need permission, but a visibly different frontage usually does. The application goes to Gateshead Metropolitan Borough Council. Illuminated signs can need advertisement consent, depending on size, position and area. Listed buildings need listed building consent as well.
