What happens in Chippenham?
Our surveys in Chippenham cover postcodes including SN15 and SN16, along with Corsham and Calne. Planning applications here go to Wiltshire Council, so it is worth reading any shopfront guidance it publishes before anything is drawn.
What is worth knowing?
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.
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.
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 Chippenham?
A like-for-like replacement often does not need permission, but a visibly different frontage usually does. The application goes to Wiltshire Council. Illuminated signs can need advertisement consent, depending on size, position and area. Listed buildings need listed building consent as well.
