Guide prices, not offers. Your written quotation sets the final figure.
What should you think about first?
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.
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.
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.
Will this need planning permission in Chigwell?
Usually yes, if the look of the frontage changes. Replacing like for like may not need permission, but Epping Forest District Council 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 Chigwell?
How soon can you fit an aluminium shopfront in Chigwell?
Lead time is 3 to 4 weeks after drawing sign-off. We book the fitting days around your trading.
Does a new shopfront in Chigwell need planning permission?
A change to how the frontage looks usually does. Epping Forest District Council 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.
