Shop refurbishment and refit across Ayrshire

Businesses across Ayrshire use us for shop refurbishment and refit because one team manages the design, the trades and the sign-off. We regularly quote in Ayr, Kilmarnock, Irvine.

A shop refurbishment updates an existing unit: new finishes, lighting, fixtures and layout, from a light refresh while you trade to a full strip-out and refit.

Local projects in Ayrshire

Typical Ayrshire jobs for this service involve high street units and corner shops, as well as pharmacies and healthcare premises. We check the lease, access and service capacity before pricing.

South West Scotland's towns rely on independent retailers and hospitality, with many shop units in traditional sandstone terraces.

What does the work include?

  • Lighting upgrade to LED
  • Replacement fixtures and counters
  • Flooring replacement
  • Condition survey of the existing fit-out

What approvals might you need in Ayrshire?

In Scotland, most fit-out work that alters the building needs a building warrant from the local authority before work starts, followed by a completion certificate. Planning permission and advertisement consent are separate, and Scottish councils publish their own shopfront design guidance.

  • Older units may contain asbestos; a refurbishment survey is needed before strip-out.
  • Switching to LED lighting cuts running costs and heat load.
