How does it work across Greater Glasgow?
In Greater Glasgow, 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 Glasgow, Paisley, Greenock and Bearsden. Tenement ground floors run across Glasgow and Paisley, often as long rows of units under flats, and town centres line the Clyde.
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.
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.
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.
Will this need planning permission across Greater Glasgow?
It depends on how much changes. A new layout, new materials or a moved door usually needs permission from your council. In Scotland, work can also need a building warrant before it starts, and listed buildings need listed building consent from the council.
