What happens across County Antrim?
From city-centre units to village parades, the job starts the same way. Belfast, Lisburn, Newtownabbey and Ballymena are among the places we cover. Councils here include Belfast, Antrim and Newtownabbey and Mid and East Antrim. Belfast has a city centre and long arterial routes, and towns such as Lisburn, Ballymena and Carrickfergus each have their own main streets.
What should you think about first?
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.
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.
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 |

Will this need planning permission across County Antrim?
A like-for-like replacement often does not need permission, but a visibly different frontage usually does. The application goes to your council. In Northern Ireland, councils decide planning applications, and Building Control applications are separate. Listed buildings need listed building consent.
