What makes the difference?
What does the written quotation show?
Every item: frame, glass, doors, stallriser, strip-out and any electrics. It stays valid for 90 days, and nothing is ordered until you accept.
Which glass should go in?
Safety glass is needed in doors, side panels and low-level panes. Laminated glass is worth the extra if the street has a history of break-ins.
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.
Will this need planning permission in Ashington?
It depends on how much changes. A new layout, new materials or a moved door usually needs permission from Northumberland County Council. Illuminated signs can need advertisement consent, depending on size, position and area. Listed buildings need listed building consent as well.
