What can you expect in Newhaven?
A frontage in Newhaven has to suit the street as well as the shop. Lewes District Council decides what is acceptable where planning applies, so we draw with that in mind.

What makes the difference?
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.
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.
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.
Do you need consent in Newhaven?
A like-for-like replacement often does not need permission, but a visibly different frontage usually does. The application goes to Lewes District Council. Illuminated signs can need advertisement consent, depending on size, position and area. Listed buildings need listed building consent as well.
