What happens in Glasgow?
Working in Glasgow means working with Glasgow City Council on planning, and sometimes with a landlord on the lease. We flag both early, so that neither one holds up your opening date.

What is worth knowing?
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.
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.
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.
Will this need planning permission in Glasgow?
A like-for-like replacement often does not need permission, but a visibly different frontage usually does. The application goes to Glasgow City Council. In Scotland, work can also need a building warrant before it starts, and listed buildings need listed building consent from the council.
