What happens in Portswood?
We aim to fit the survey around your opening hours in Portswood, and we also cover Southampton and Eastleigh. You get the same written quotation wherever the shop is.
What should you check before you decide?
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 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.
What should you budget?
| Opening width | Typical unit | Guide price plus VAT |

| 4 to 5 m | A double-fronted or corner unit | £5,895 to £9,695 |
