What can you expect across Northumberland?
We work right across Northumberland, including Blyth, Cramlington, Ashington and Bedlington. Rules on frontages and shutters differ from one council to the next. Northumberland County Council is the council to check with here. Cramlington and Blyth lie in the south-east, with stone market towns such as Morpeth and Berwick-upon-Tweed further north.
What should you think about first?
Should the stallriser stay?
A stallriser protects the bottom of the glass from kicks, trolleys and cleaning water. On older streets it is also part of the look.
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.
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.

Will this need planning permission across Northumberland?
It depends on how much changes. A new layout, new materials or a moved door usually needs permission from your council. Illuminated signs can need advertisement consent, depending on size, position and area. Listed buildings need listed building consent as well.
