What can you expect in Wakefield?
Our surveys in Wakefield cover postcodes including WF1, WF2 and WF4, along with Ossett and Dewsbury. Planning applications here go to Wakefield Metropolitan District Council, so it is worth reading any shopfront guidance it publishes before anything is drawn.
What makes the difference?
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 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.
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.
What are the guide prices?

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