What happens in Lisburn?
Most shop owners come to us at one of three points: a new lease, a break-in, or a frontage that has finally given up. In each case the first step is a survey, and we cover postcodes including BT27, BT28 and BT17.

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.
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 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 Lisburn?
Usually yes, if the look of the frontage changes. Replacing like for like may not need permission, but Lisburn and Castlereagh City Council has the final say. In Northern Ireland, councils decide planning applications, and Building Control applications are separate. Listed buildings need listed building consent.
