Retail shopfitting for Maidstone businesses
From the first measured survey to the day you open, our retail shopfitting work in Maidstone is planned around your lease, your landlord and your trading hours.
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.
How do we plan the job?
Every retail shopfitting quote for Maidstone lists each element separately, so you can see what the layout, joinery, services and finishes each cost.

- Lighting, power and data first fix

What should Maidstone owners check first?
- 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.
- Landlord consent and the lease's fit-out guide usually need sign-off before work starts.
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 retail shopfitting in Maidstone
Can you work around our existing shop while it trades?
Yes. We phase the work, screen off live areas and do the noisy and dusty trades out of hours so the shop can keep taking money.
Is the survey free in Maidstone?
Yes. We survey units in Maidstone and across Kent free of charge, with no obligation.
How soon can work start in Maidstone?
Surveys are usually booked within one to two weeks. Your quote includes a start date and a dated programme.
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.
