How does it work in Selkirk?
Our surveys in Selkirk cover postcodes including TD7, along with Galashiels and Hawick. Planning applications here go to Scottish Borders Council, so it is worth reading any shopfront guidance it publishes before anything is drawn.
What is worth knowing?
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 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.
How is the frontage measured?
We measure the structural opening, not the old frame. Lintel condition, floor level and how square the opening is all get recorded at survey.
