Restaurant and café fit-out contractors in Norfolk
From Norwich to Great Yarmouth, we deliver restaurant and café fit-out for independent owners and multi-site operators across Norfolk, with fixed prices and a dated programme.
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 Norfolk
In Norfolk we mostly see showrooms and trade counters and high street units and corner shops. Each has its own landlord rules, service loads and access limits, which we look at on the first visit.
The East of England mixes historic market towns with new town centres and retail parks, which means a shopfitter here is as likely to work on a listed frontage as on a modern shell unit.
What does the work include?
- Service counter and back bar
- Banquettes, booths and loose seating layout
- Hygienic wall and floor finishes for kitchens
- Canopy, extraction and make-up air
Planning and building control in Norfolk
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.
- 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.
