Restaurant and café fit-out contractors in Berkshire
Businesses across Berkshire use us for restaurant and café fit-out because one team manages the design, the trades and the sign-off. We regularly quote in Bracknell, Newbury, Maidenhead.
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.
Working in Berkshire
Typical Berkshire jobs for this service involve showrooms and trade counters, as well as salons, barbers and beauty clinics. We check the lease, access and service capacity before pricing.
Across the South East, market towns with conservation areas sit next to large retail parks, so shopfront design often needs to satisfy planners on the high street while retail park units follow the landlord's specification.
What does the work include?
- Canopy, extraction and make-up air
- Gas, water and grease-trap drainage
- Accessible toilet and baby change
- Service counter and back bar
