Restaurant and café fit-out for Crawley businesses
We carry out restaurant and café fit-out in Crawley and the surrounding parts of West Sussex, 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.
How do we plan the job?
For Crawley jobs we confirm loading and parking arrangements early, because access often shapes the programme as much as the build itself.
In and around Crawley we are usually asked to work on shopping centre units and retail park stores and showrooms and trade counters.
What is included?
- Accessible toilet and baby change
- Service counter and back bar
- Banquettes, booths and loose seating layout
- Hygienic wall and floor finishes for kitchens
- Canopy, extraction and make-up air
What should Crawley 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.
