What happens across Greater London?
From city-centre units to village parades, the job starts the same way. City of London, Westminster, Mayfair and Soho are among the places we cover. Councils here include City of London, Westminster and Barnet. Every kind of frontage is here, from West End premises to the parades of outer London, and many boroughs publish their own shopfront guidance.
What should you think about first?
What does the written quotation show?
Every item: frame, glass, doors, stallriser, strip-out and any electrics. It stays valid for 90 days, and nothing is ordered until you accept.
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.
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.
How much will it cost?
| Opening width | Typical unit | Guide price plus VAT |
|---|---|---|
| Up to 3 m | A typical single shop unit | £3,995 to £6,495 |
| 3 to 4 m | A wider single unit | £5,195 to £8,495 |
| 4 to 5 m | A double-fronted or corner unit | £6,595 to £10,995 |
| 5 to 6 m | A large double unit | £8,495 to £13,995 |
