What can you expect across Greater Glasgow?
In Greater Glasgow, the usual route is the same wherever you are: a measured survey, an itemised quotation, then fitting at a time that suits the shop. Towns we cover include Glasgow, Paisley, Greenock and Bearsden. Tenement ground floors run across Glasgow and Paisley, often as long rows of units under flats, and town centres line the Clyde.
What should you think about first?
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.
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.

Guide prices, not offers. Your written quotation sets the final figure.
Will this need planning permission across Greater Glasgow?
It depends on how much changes. A new layout, new materials or a moved door usually needs permission from your council. In Scotland, work can also need a building warrant before it starts, and listed buildings need listed building consent from the council.
