Retail shopfitting contractors in Southport

Owners opening or refreshing a unit in Southport use our retail shopfitting service to get one contract, one programme and one point of contact.

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.

Guide price for Southport£300–£650per m², ex VAT. Fixed after a free survey.

What happens at the survey?

For Southport jobs we confirm loading and parking arrangements early, because access often shapes the programme as much as the build itself.

In and around Southport we are usually asked to work on cafés, takeaways and independent restaurants and high street units and corner shops.

What is included?

  • Lighting, power and data first fix
  • Display walls, gondolas and counters
  • Flooring, decorating and final clean
  • Measured survey and floor plan
  • Strip-out and making good

What should Southport 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.
