What happens across Tayside?
We work right across Tayside, including Dundee, Perth, Arbroath and Forfar. Rules on frontages and shutters differ from one council to the next. Councils here include Dundee City, Angus and Perth and Kinross. Dundee and Perth are the main centres, with Arbroath and Montrose on the coast and Forfar inland.
What should you think about first?
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.
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.
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 Tayside?
Very likely. Your council will look closely at frontages in conservation areas, and any listed building needs listed building consent as well. In Scotland, work can also need a building warrant before it starts, and listed buildings need listed building consent from the council.
