What is shopfitting like in Cheshire?

Planning and building control in Cheshire
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.
- A poor subfloor shows through thin vinyl; levelling is worth paying for.
- Entrance areas should have matting to stop rain being walked into the shop.
