How does it work across Northumberland?
From city-centre units to village parades, the job starts the same way. Blyth, Cramlington, Ashington and Bedlington are among the places we cover. Northumberland County Council is the council to check with here. Cramlington and Blyth lie in the south-east, with stone market towns such as Morpeth and Berwick-upon-Tweed further north.
What makes the difference?
Who is responsible if something goes wrong?
One company. Your contract is with S&K Glazing Limited for both parts, so nobody can point at the other contractor.
Should I choose solid or perforated?
Solid gives more privacy and strength. Perforated keeps the window working at night. On the outside of a shop, some councils resist both, so check before you choose.
Why plan the frontage and shutter together?
Because the shutter box needs a home. Plan it with the fascia and it disappears. Add it later and it usually ends up on the face of the building.
How much will it cost?
| Work | Guide price plus VAT |

| Added to a package or new shutter | £295 to £695 |

Will this need planning permission across Northumberland?
Probably, if it is external. Your council decides. Many councils resist solid external shutters, and some resist perforated ones too. Illuminated signs can need advertisement consent, depending on size, position and area. Listed buildings need listed building consent as well.
