Restaurant and café fit-out in Dunfermline
Owners opening or refreshing a unit in Dunfermline use our restaurant and café fit-out service to get one contract, one programme and one point of contact.
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.
What happens at the survey?
For Dunfermline jobs we confirm loading and parking arrangements early, because access often shapes the programme as much as the build itself.
In and around Dunfermline we are usually asked to work on cafés, takeaways and independent restaurants and salons, barbers and beauty clinics.
What is included?
- Gas, water and grease-trap drainage
- Accessible toilet and baby change
- Service counter and back bar
- Banquettes, booths and loose seating layout
- Hygienic wall and floor finishes for kitchens
What should Dunfermline 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.
