What can you expect in Whitstable?
Local rules matter more than people expect. Canterbury City Council handles planning for Whitstable, and its view of external shutters and frontage changes shapes what we recommend.
What should you check before you decide?
What happens to my old frontage?
If the job is a replacement, removal and disposal are priced on the quotation, and we aim to leave the unit secure or boarded overnight.
Will the colours really match?
Frame and shutter are powder coated to the same RAL reference. Coating on different materials can vary slightly, which we will show you on samples first.
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.
What should you budget?

Will this need planning permission in Whitstable?
Usually yes, if the shutter goes on the outside. External shutters change how the building looks, so Canterbury City 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.
