Local projects in Dorset

Most enquiries we get from Dorset come from shopping centre units and retail park stores or showrooms and trade counters, and the survey is where we pick up the details that change the price.

South West high streets rely heavily on independent and seasonal trade, especially in coastal towns, so fit-outs are often scheduled to finish before the spring and summer season.

What does the work include?

  • Acoustic treatment and flooring
  • Bar counter and back bar joinery
  • Cellar cooling and beer line routes
  • Glass washer, ice machine and sink positions

What approvals might you need in Dorset?

In England, fit-out work that affects fire escape, structure, drainage or accessibility falls under the Building Regulations and is signed off by local authority or approved inspector building control. Shopfronts, extraction flues and illuminated signs are dealt with separately by the local planning authority.

  • Late-night venues often need acoustic treatment to satisfy noise conditions.
  • Cellar cooling units need somewhere to reject heat, usually outside, which may need consent.
