What should Chester owners check first?

  • Refrigeration needs dedicated circuits and ventilation space; confirm the supply capacity before ordering chillers.
  • Your premises licence plan may need updating if the alcohol display area changes.
  • Tobacco and vapes must be stored out of sight of customers, so the gantry needs closing doors or shutters.

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.
