What happens in Billingham?
A job starts the same way wherever you are: a measured survey, a look at the lintel and floor level, and a conversation about how the unit trades. We cover postcodes including TS20, TS23 and TS22, and we also work nearby in Stockton-on-Tees and Middlesbrough.
What should you think about first?
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.
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.
How do you deal with the threshold?
We aim for level or near-level access. New doors need thought about wheelchair and pushchair users, and we check the floor before we promise anything.
How much will it cost?

Guide prices, not offers. Your written quotation sets the final figure.
Will this need planning permission in Billingham?
A like-for-like replacement often does not need permission, but a visibly different frontage usually does. The application goes to Stockton-on-Tees Borough Council. Illuminated signs can need advertisement consent, depending on size, position and area. Listed buildings need listed building consent as well.

Lead time is 5 to 6 weeks after drawing sign-off. We book the fitting days around your trading.
Can you add a shutter to the new shopfront?
Yes, and it is best planned now. We can price the frontage and shutter as one job.

Yes, section for section. It also lets you keep glazing bars slim while holding heavier glass.
