What can you expect across County Down?
In County Down, the usual route is the same wherever you are: a measured survey, an itemised quotation, then fitting at a time that suits the shop. Towns we cover include Bangor, Newtownards, Newry and Banbridge. Bangor, Newtownards and Newry are the larger centres, and smaller market towns and coastal centres make up the rest of the county.
What should you think about first?
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.
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.
Can it have a shutter later?
Yes, but it is far neater to allow for one now. Tell us at survey, and we will leave height behind the fascia even if the shutter comes later.
What are the guide prices?

Guide prices, not offers. Your written quotation sets the final figure.
Will this need planning permission across County Down?
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.
