What should Kettering owners check first?

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.
Fire alarm, emergency lighting and escape signage must be commissioned and certified before you open.

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 Kettering

How soon can work start in Kettering?

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.

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.

Yes. We survey units in Kettering and across Northamptonshire free of charge, with no obligation.
