What can you expect across the Lothians?
Our teams cover Edinburgh, Livingston, Musselburgh and Bathgate and the rest of the Lothians. If your shop is in a conservation area or a listed building, tell us at the start, because it changes the options. Edinburgh has listed streets and shopping districts such as Leith Walk and Morningside, and Livingston and the market towns of East Lothian make up the rest.

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.
Should the stallriser stay?
A stallriser protects the bottom of the glass from kicks, trolleys and cleaning water. On older streets it is also part of the look.
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.
Do you need consent across the Lothians?
Usually yes, if the look of the frontage changes. Replacing like for like may not need permission, but your council has the final say. In Scotland, work can also need a building warrant before it starts, and listed buildings need listed building consent from the council.
