What happens in Darwen?
Our surveys in Darwen cover postcodes including BB3, along with Blackburn and Haslingden. Planning applications here go to Blackburn with Darwen Borough Council, so it is worth reading any shopfront guidance it publishes before anything is drawn.
What should you think about first?
Can I phase the work?
Yes. If cash flow is tight, we can fit the frontage first and leave the box, guides and power ready for the shutter later.
What does one drawing change?
Everything lines up: door head, guide channels, fascia, sign fixing and power supply. It also gives your council or landlord one clear document to look at.
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.
