What happens in Ipswich?
Our surveys in Ipswich cover postcodes including IP1, IP4 and IP2, along with Harwich and Felixstowe. Planning applications here go to Ipswich Borough Council, so it is worth reading any shopfront guidance it publishes before anything is drawn.
What should you check before you decide?
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.
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.
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.

Will this need planning permission in Ipswich?
It depends on how much changes. A new layout, new materials or a moved door usually needs permission from Ipswich Borough Council. Illuminated signs can need advertisement consent, depending on size, position and area. Listed buildings need listed building consent as well.
