Shop refurbishment and refit contractors in Cornwall

Our shop refurbishment and refit team works across Cornwall and the wider South West, taking projects from first survey to final clean in towns including Bodmin, Truro, Falmouth.

Local projects in Cornwall

Typical Cornwall jobs for this service involve boutiques and independent retailers, as well as salons, barbers and beauty clinics. We check the lease, access and service capacity before pricing.

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?

  • Replacement fixtures and counters
  • Flooring replacement
  • Condition survey of the existing fit-out
  • Strip-out and waste removal

Planning and building control in Cornwall

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.

  • Switching to LED lighting cuts running costs and heat load.
  • Reusing sound fixtures can take a large slice off the cost.
