What can you expect in Livingston?
We aim to fit the survey around your opening hours in Livingston, and we also cover Broxburn and Bathgate. You get the same written quotation wherever the shop is.
What should you check before you decide?
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.
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 should you budget?
| 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 |
| 4 to 5 m | A double-fronted or corner unit | £5,895 to £9,695 |
| 5 to 6 m | A large double unit | £7,195 to £11,995 |

Do you need consent in Livingston?
A like-for-like replacement often does not need permission, but a visibly different frontage usually does. The application goes to West Lothian Council. In Scotland, work can also need a building warrant before it starts, and listed buildings need listed building consent from the council.
