What makes the difference?
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.
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.
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.
Will this need planning permission in Strood?
A like-for-like replacement often does not need permission, but a visibly different frontage usually does. The application goes to Medway Council. Illuminated signs can need advertisement consent, depending on size, position and area. Listed buildings need listed building consent as well.
