What can you expect in Didcot?
Didcot sits in Oxfordshire, and South Oxfordshire District Council is the planning authority. For most shops that means checking consent before the order is placed, not after it.
What is worth knowing?
Does a shutter need planning permission?
An external shutter usually does. Many councils resist solid external shutters, and some resist perforated ones too. An internal grille or shutter is usually the safer route, so we can advise what to check before you order.
Surface box or hidden box?
A surface box under the fascia is quicker and cheaper. A hidden box looks far better, but needs height above the door head and a removable access panel.
Steel or aluminium laths?
Steel is stronger and heavier. Aluminium is lighter and quieter, which helps under flats. Most shops are well served by either.
What should you budget?

Do you need consent in Didcot?
Usually yes, if the shutter goes on the outside. External shutters change how the building looks, so South Oxfordshire District Council will normally expect a planning application. Illuminated signs can need advertisement consent, depending on size, position and area. Listed buildings need listed building consent as well.
