How does it work in Bangor?
Our surveys in Bangor cover postcodes including BT20, BT19 and BT21, along with Newtownards and Holywood. Planning applications here go to Ards and North Down Borough Council, so it is worth reading any shopfront guidance it publishes before anything is drawn.
What is worth knowing?
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.
Can it have a shutter later?
Yes, but it is far neater to allow for one now. Tell us at survey, and we will leave height behind the fascia even if the shutter comes later.
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.

Do you need consent in Bangor?
A like-for-like replacement often does not need permission, but a visibly different frontage usually does. The application goes to Ards and North Down Borough Council. In Northern Ireland, councils decide planning applications, and Building Control applications are separate. Listed buildings need listed building consent.
