What happens in Hornchurch?
Our surveys in Hornchurch cover postcodes including RM11, along with Romford and Dagenham. Planning applications here go to London Borough of Havering, so it is worth reading any shopfront guidance it publishes before anything is drawn.
What makes the difference?
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 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.
Which colours work best?
Dark greys and black are the most requested because they frame the shop well. In a conservation area, ask us first, as colour can matter to the council.
What are the guide prices?
