What happens in Ballymena?
Our surveys in Ballymena cover postcodes including BT42, BT43 and BT44, along with Antrim and Ballyclare. Planning applications here go to Mid and East Antrim Borough Council, so it is worth reading any shopfront guidance it publishes before anything is drawn.
What should you think about first?
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.
Should the stallriser stay?
A stallriser protects the bottom of the glass from kicks, trolleys and cleaning water. On older streets it is also part of the look.
What affects the price most?
Width, the number of doors, glass type and any strip-out. A second door or a laminated upgrade moves the figure more than the colour does.
What should you budget?
| Opening width | Typical unit | Guide price plus VAT |
|---|---|---|
| Up to 3 m | A typical single shop unit | £3,600 to £5,995 |
| 3 to 4 m | A wider single unit | £4,695 to £7,795 |
| 4 to 5 m | A double-fronted or corner unit | £5,895 to £9,695 |
| 5 to 6 m | A large double unit | £7,195 to £11,995 |
Guide prices, not offers. Your written quotation sets the final figure.
Will this need planning permission in Ballymena?
A like-for-like replacement often does not need permission, but a visibly different frontage usually does. The application goes to Mid and East Antrim Borough Council. In Northern Ireland, councils decide planning applications, and Building Control applications are separate. Listed buildings need listed building consent.
