Retail shopfitting across Berkshire

We carry out retail shopfitting throughout Berkshire, from Slough to Bracknell. Every job starts with a measured survey and ends with a certified, trading-ready handover.

Retail shopfitting is the design, manufacture and installation of everything inside a shop that lets it trade: walls, ceilings, lighting, flooring, display fixtures, counters, fitting rooms and the services behind them.

What is shopfitting like in Berkshire?

Most enquiries we get from Berkshire come from cafés, takeaways and independent restaurants or boutiques and independent retailers, and the survey is where we pick up the details that change the price.

Across the South East, market towns with conservation areas sit next to large retail parks, so shopfront design often needs to satisfy planners on the high street while retail park units follow the landlord's specification.

What does the work include?

  • Partitions, drylining and ceilings
  • Lighting, power and data first fix
  • Display walls, gondolas and counters
  • Flooring, decorating and final clean

Planning and building control in Berkshire

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.

  • Shopfitting inside a trading centre often has to run out of hours, so ask for a night-work price early.
  • Fire alarm, emergency lighting and escape signage must be commissioned and certified before you open.

Questions about retail shopfitting in Berkshire

Which building rules apply to fit-outs in Berkshire?

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.

Do you provide the design as well as the build?

We produce a layout and elevations with you, then build from them. If you already have a designer or brand guidelines, we work to those instead.

How long does a retail fit-out take?

A small unit of 50–100 m² usually takes two to four weeks on site once drawings and landlord consent are agreed. Larger stores or jobs with a new shopfront run longer. We give you a dated programme with the quote.

Do you cover Slough and the rest of Berkshire?

Yes. We carry out retail shopfitting in Slough, Bracknell and across Berkshire. The survey is free wherever the unit is.
