What happens in Knaresborough?
Knaresborough sits in North Yorkshire, and North Yorkshire Council is the planning authority. For most shops that means checking consent before the order is placed, not after it.
What is worth knowing?
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.
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.
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.
How much will it cost?
| 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 |

Will this need planning permission in Knaresborough?
A like-for-like replacement often does not need permission, but a visibly different frontage usually does. The application goes to North Yorkshire Council. Illuminated signs can need advertisement consent, depending on size, position and area. Listed buildings need listed building consent as well.
