What should Felixstowe owners check first?

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.
Questions about restaurant and café fit-out in Felixstowe
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.

Yes. We survey units in Felixstowe and across Suffolk free of charge, with no obligation.
