What can you expect in Truro?

What should you think about first?
Which colours work best?
Dark greys and black are the most requested because they frame the shop well. In a conservation area, ask us first, as colour can matter to the council.
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.
Will this need planning permission in Truro?
It depends on how much changes. A new layout, new materials or a moved door usually needs permission from Cornwall Council. Illuminated signs can need advertisement consent, depending on size, position and area. Listed buildings need listed building consent as well.
