Retail shopfitting contractors in Wiltshire
If you are opening, moving or refreshing a unit in Wiltshire, our retail shopfitting service covers the layout, the build and the paperwork, with work planned around 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.
Local projects in Wiltshire
In Wiltshire we mostly see high street units and corner shops and shopping centre units and retail park stores. Each has its own landlord rules, service loads and access limits, which we look at on the first visit.
South West high streets rely heavily on independent and seasonal trade, especially in coastal towns, so fit-outs are often scheduled to finish before the spring and summer season.
What does the work include?
- Lighting, power and data first fix
- Display walls, gondolas and counters
- Flooring, decorating and final clean
- Measured survey and floor plan
What approvals might you need in Wiltshire?
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.
- 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.
Questions about retail shopfitting in Wiltshire
Do you cover Devizes and the rest of Wiltshire?

Which building rules apply to fit-outs in Wiltshire?
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.
