What happens in Chelmsford?
We cover Chelmsford and postcodes including CM1 and CM2, and teams working here can also reach Billericay and Witham. Parking, deliveries and pavement space all go into the plan for fitting day.
What should you check before you decide?
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 about the fascia and sign?
We set out the fascia at the same time, so your sign fixings and any shutter box do not clash. Illuminated signs can need advertisement consent, depending on size, position and area.
How is the frontage measured?
We measure the structural opening, not the old frame. Lintel condition, floor level and how square the opening is all get recorded at survey.
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.
Do you need consent in Chelmsford?
A like-for-like replacement often does not need permission, but a visibly different frontage usually does. The application goes to Chelmsford City Council. Illuminated signs can need advertisement consent, depending on size, position and area. Listed buildings need listed building consent as well.

How much does a steel shopfront cost in Chelmsford?

A change to how the frontage looks usually does. Chelmsford City Council is the council to check with, and we advise at survey.

Yes, and it is best planned now. We can price the frontage and shutter as one job.
Does steel rust?
Not if the finish is right and stays intact. It is galvanised or primed, then powder coated.
