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.
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.
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.
Will this need planning permission in Dalkeith?
Usually yes, if the look of the frontage changes. Replacing like for like may not need permission, but Midlothian Council has the final say. In Scotland, work can also need a building warrant before it starts, and listed buildings need listed building consent from the council.
