Entrance areas should have matting to stop rain being walked into the shop.
Kitchens and wet areas need a higher slip resistance rating.
A poor subfloor shows through thin vinyl; levelling is worth paying for.

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.
