What makes the difference?
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.
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 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.
Will this need planning permission in Walkden?
It depends on how much changes. A new layout, new materials or a moved door usually needs permission from Salford City Council. Illuminated signs can need advertisement consent, depending on size, position and area. Listed buildings need listed building consent as well.
