How does it work in Stretford?
Stretford sits in Greater Manchester, and Trafford Metropolitan Borough Council is the planning authority. For most shops that means checking consent before the order is placed, not after it.

What should you think about first?
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.
Which glass should go in?
Safety glass is needed in doors, side panels and low-level panes. Laminated glass is worth the extra if the street has a history of break-ins.
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.
Will this need planning permission in Stretford?
A like-for-like replacement often does not need permission, but a visibly different frontage usually does. The application goes to Trafford Metropolitan Borough Council. Illuminated signs can need advertisement consent, depending on size, position and area. Listed buildings need listed building consent as well.
