What should Peebles owners check first?

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.
Register your food business with the council at least 28 days before you start trading.

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 Peebles

How soon can work start in Peebles?

Surveys are usually booked within one to two weeks. Your quote includes a start date and a dated programme.

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 Peebles?

Yes. We survey units in Peebles and across the Scottish Borders free of charge, with no obligation.
