Shop refurbishment and refit in Preston
Planning shop refurbishment and refit in Preston? Start with a free survey; we check services, access and approvals, then price the job line by line.
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.
What happens at the survey?
Before we price shop refurbishment and refit in Preston, we check the lease, the landlord's fit-out rules, the existing services and how materials can get into the unit.
In and around Preston we are usually asked to work on high street units and corner shops and shopping centre units and retail park stores.
What is included?
- Replacement fixtures and counters

What should Preston owners check first?

- Older units may contain asbestos; a refurbishment survey is needed before strip-out.

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.
