What happens in Kirkwall?
Most shop owners come to us at one of three points: a new lease, a break-in, or a frontage that has finally given up. In each case the first step is a survey, and we cover postcodes including KW15, KW17 and KW16.

What should you check before you decide?
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.
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.
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.
Do you need consent in Kirkwall?
A like-for-like replacement often does not need permission, but a visibly different frontage usually does. The application goes to Orkney Islands Council. In Scotland, work can also need a building warrant before it starts, and listed buildings need listed building consent from the council.
