What can you expect across Devon?
In Devon, the usual route is the same wherever you are: a measured survey, an itemised quotation, then fitting at a time that suits the shop. Towns we cover include Plymouth, Exeter, Paignton and Torquay. Plymouth's post-war centre is unlike Exeter's older streets or the seaside towns of Torquay, Paignton and Exmouth.
What should you think about first?
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.
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.
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.
What are the guide prices?

Guide prices, not offers. Your written quotation sets the final figure.
Do you need consent across Devon?
Usually yes, if the look of the frontage changes. Replacing like for like may not need permission, but your council has the final say. 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 across Devon?

A change to how the frontage looks usually does. Your council is the council to check with, and we advise at survey.
Is steel stronger than aluminium for a shopfront?
Yes, section for section. It also lets you keep glazing bars slim while holding heavier glass.
