Restaurant and café fit-out contractors in Kilmarnock
We carry out restaurant and café fit-out in Kilmarnock and the surrounding parts of Ayrshire, managing every trade from strip-out to a clean handover.
A restaurant or café fit-out covers the dining area, the service counter and the back-of-house kitchen, including the extraction, gas, drainage and hygiene finishes the kitchen needs.
How do we plan the job?
Every restaurant and café fit-out quote for Kilmarnock lists each element separately, so you can see what the layout, joinery, services and finishes each cost.
In and around Kilmarnock we are usually asked to work on shopping centre units and retail park stores and cafés, takeaways and independent restaurants.
What is included?
- Canopy, extraction and make-up air
- Gas, water and grease-trap drainage
- Accessible toilet and baby change
- Service counter and back bar
- Banquettes, booths and loose seating layout
What should Kilmarnock owners check first?
- Kitchen gas work must be done and certified by a Gas Safe engineer registered for commercial catering.
- Register your food business with the council at least 28 days before you start trading.
- A new extraction flue often needs planning permission, and odour and noise reports may be asked 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.
Questions about restaurant and café fit-out in Kilmarnock
How much does a café fit-out cost?
A small café refit without a new kitchen extraction system can start from the low end of our range. A full restaurant with new extraction and a commercial kitchen sits at the top. We price from a survey, not a guess.
Do I need planning permission for a restaurant?
Change of use from shop to restaurant may need planning permission, and a new extraction flue usually does. We check the planning history during the survey.
Is the survey free in Kilmarnock?
Yes. We survey units in Kilmarnock and across Ayrshire free of charge, with no obligation.
How soon can work start in Kilmarnock?
Surveys are usually booked within one to two weeks. Your quote includes a start date and a dated programme.
