What should you check before you decide?
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.
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.
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.
Do you need consent in Woodford?
A like-for-like replacement often does not need permission, but a visibly different frontage usually does. The application goes to London Borough of Redbridge. Illuminated signs can need advertisement consent, depending on size, position and area. Listed buildings need listed building consent as well.
