We cover Orpington and postcodes including BR6, and teams working here can also reach Swanley and Sidcup. Parking, deliveries and pavement space all go into the plan for fitting day.
What is worth knowing?
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.
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.

Will this need planning permission in Orpington?
A like-for-like replacement often does not need permission, but a visibly different frontage usually does. The application goes to London Borough of Bromley. Illuminated signs can need advertisement consent, depending on size, position and area. Listed buildings need listed building consent as well.
