What can you expect across Cornwall?
We work right across Cornwall, including Redruth, Falmouth, St Austell and Truro. Rules on frontages and shutters differ from one council to the next. Cornwall Council is the council to check with here. Truro, Falmouth and Penzance are built of granite and slate, with salt air and strong weather along much of the coast.

What is worth knowing?
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.
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.
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.
Will this need planning permission across Cornwall?
Very likely. Your council will look closely at frontages in conservation areas, and any listed building needs listed building consent as well. Illuminated signs can need advertisement consent, depending on size, position and area. Listed buildings need listed building consent as well.
