What happens in Catford?
Catford sits in Greater London, and London Borough of Lewisham is the planning authority. For most shops that means checking consent before the order is placed, not after it.
What makes the difference?
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.
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.
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.
What should you budget?
| 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 Catford?
Usually yes, if the look of the frontage changes. Replacing like for like may not need permission, but London Borough of Lewisham has the final say. Illuminated signs can need advertisement consent, depending on size, position and area. Listed buildings need listed building consent as well.
What do people ask about aluminium shopfronts in Catford?
How soon can you fit an aluminium shopfront in Catford?
Lead time is 3 to 4 weeks after drawing sign-off. We book the fitting days around your trading.
Does a new shopfront in Catford need planning permission?
A change to how the frontage looks usually does. London Borough of Lewisham is the council to check with, and we advise at survey.
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.
What colours can I have?
Any RAL colour in powder coat. Anthracite, black, white and navy are the common choices.
