What should you think about first?
What affects the price most?
Width, the number of doors, glass type and any strip-out. A second door or a laminated upgrade moves the figure more than the colour does.
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.
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 across Tyne and Wear?
It depends on how much changes. A new layout, new materials or a moved door usually needs permission from your council. Illuminated signs can need advertisement consent, depending on size, position and area. Listed buildings need listed building consent as well.
