What can you expect in Northwich?
Working in Northwich means working with Cheshire West and Chester Council on planning, and sometimes with a landlord on the lease. We flag both early, so that neither one holds up your opening date.
What should you check before you decide?
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.
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.
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.
What are the guide prices?
| Opening width | Typical unit | Guide price plus VAT |

| Up to 3 m | A typical single shop unit | £3,600 to £5,995 |

Guide prices, not offers. Your written quotation sets the final figure.
Do you need consent in Northwich?
Usually yes, if the look of the frontage changes. Replacing like for like may not need permission, but Cheshire West and Chester Council has the final say. Illuminated signs can need advertisement consent, depending on size, position and area. Listed buildings need listed building consent as well.
