What should you think about first?
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.
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.
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.
Will this need planning permission in Peterhead?
A like-for-like replacement often does not need permission, but a visibly different frontage usually does. The application goes to Aberdeenshire Council. In Scotland, work can also need a building warrant before it starts, and listed buildings need listed building consent from the council.
