Bar and pub fit-out contractors in Dumfries and Galloway
We carry out bar and pub fit-out throughout Dumfries and Galloway, from Stranraer to Annan. Every job starts with a measured survey and ends with a certified, trading-ready handover.
A bar fit-out builds the bar counter and back bar, the cellar and beer line runs, seating and the lighting and acoustics that set the mood.
What is shopfitting like in Dumfries and Galloway?
In Dumfries and Galloway we mostly see convenience stores and off-licences and shopping centre units and retail park stores. Each has its own landlord rules, service loads and access limits, which we look at on the first visit.
South West Scotland's towns rely on independent retailers and hospitality, with many shop units in traditional sandstone terraces.
What does the work include?
- Bar counter and back bar joinery
- Cellar cooling and beer line routes
- Glass washer, ice machine and sink positions
- Booth and loose seating
Planning and building control in Dumfries and Galloway
In Scotland, most fit-out work that alters the building needs a building warrant from the local authority before work starts, followed by a completion certificate. Planning permission and advertisement consent are separate, and Scottish councils publish their own shopfront design guidance.
- Cellar cooling units need somewhere to reject heat, usually outside, which may need consent.
- Changes to the bar layout may need a variation to your premises licence plan.

We prepare the cellar and line routes, and work alongside your brewery or line installer for the dispense equipment.
