What happens at the survey?

The survey for bar and pub fit-out in Kelso covers measurements, service capacity, access for deliveries and any planning or building control points.

In and around Kelso we are usually asked to work on salons, barbers and beauty clinics and boutiques and independent retailers.

What is included?

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

What should Kelso owners check first?

  • 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.
  • Changes to the bar layout may need a variation to your premises licence plan.

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.
