Bar and pub fit-out across Lanarkshire
Our bar and pub fit-out team works across Lanarkshire and the wider West Central Scotland, taking projects from first survey to final clean in towns including Airdrie, Coatbridge, Motherwell.
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.
Local projects in Lanarkshire
In Lanarkshire we mostly see salons, barbers and beauty clinics and pharmacies and healthcare premises. Each has its own landlord rules, service loads and access limits, which we look at on the first visit.
West Central Scotland has the country's largest retail concentration, with city-centre units, shopping centres and suburban parades all needing building warrant approval for structural fit-out changes.
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 Lanarkshire
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.
