What happens in Watford?
We aim to fit the survey around your opening hours in Watford, and we also cover Bushey and Rickmansworth. You get the same written quotation wherever the shop is.
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.
How do you deal with the threshold?
We aim for level or near-level access. New doors need thought about wheelchair and pushchair users, and we check the floor before we promise anything.
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.
How much will it cost?
| Opening width | Typical unit | Guide price plus VAT |
|---|---|---|
| Up to 3 m | A typical single shop unit | £3,600 to £5,995 |
| 3 to 4 m | A wider single unit | £4,695 to £7,795 |
| 4 to 5 m | A double-fronted or corner unit | £5,895 to £9,695 |
| 5 to 6 m | A large double unit | £7,195 to £11,995 |
Guide prices, not offers. Your written quotation sets the final figure.
Do you need consent in Watford?
Usually yes, if the look of the frontage changes. Replacing like for like may not need permission, but Watford Borough Council has the final say. Illuminated signs can need advertisement consent, depending on size, position and area. Listed buildings need listed building consent as well.
