Restaurant and café fit-out for Preston businesses
We carry out restaurant and café fit-out in Preston and the surrounding parts of Lancashire, 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.
What happens at the survey?
Every restaurant and café fit-out quote for Preston lists each element separately, so you can see what the layout, joinery, services and finishes each cost.
In and around Preston we are usually asked to work on boutiques and independent retailers and high street units and corner shops.
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 Preston owners check first?
- 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.
- Kitchen gas work must be done and certified by a Gas Safe engineer registered for commercial catering.
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.
