How do we plan the job?

Every retail shopfitting quote for Bolton lists each element separately, so you can see what the layout, joinery, services and finishes each cost.

In and around Bolton we are usually asked to work on shopping centre units and retail park stores and boutiques and independent retailers.

What is included?

  • Strip-out and making good
  • Partitions, drylining and ceilings
  • Lighting, power and data first fix
  • Display walls, gondolas and counters
  • Flooring, decorating and final clean

What should Bolton owners check first?

  • Fire alarm, emergency lighting and escape signage must be commissioned and certified before you open.
  • Landlord consent and the lease's fit-out guide usually need sign-off before work starts.
  • Shopfitting inside a trading centre often has to run out of hours, so ask for a night-work price early.

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.
