What can you expect across Devon?
From city-centre units to village parades, the job starts the same way. Plymouth, Exeter, Paignton and Torquay are among the places we cover. Councils here include Plymouth, Torbay and East Devon. Plymouth's post-war centre is unlike Exeter's older streets or the seaside towns of Torquay, Paignton and Exmouth.

What should you check before you decide?
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.
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 glass should go in?
Safety glass is needed in doors, side panels and low-level panes. Laminated glass is worth the extra if the street has a history of break-ins.
Do you need consent across Devon?
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.
What do people ask about timber shopfronts across Devon?
Can you add a shutter to the new shopfront?
Yes, and it is best planned now. We can price the frontage and shutter as one job.
How much does a timber shopfront cost across Devon?
