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.
What about the fascia and sign?
We set out the fascia at the same time, so your sign fixings and any shutter box do not clash. Illuminated signs can need advertisement consent, depending on size, position and area.
What does the written quotation show?
Every item: frame, glass, doors, stallriser, strip-out and any electrics. It stays valid for 90 days, and nothing is ordered until you accept.
Do you need consent in Portland?
A like-for-like replacement often does not need permission, but a visibly different frontage usually does. The application goes to Dorset Council. Illuminated signs can need advertisement consent, depending on size, position and area. Listed buildings need listed building consent as well.
