Guide price for Peterborough£450–£1,000per m², ex VAT. Fixed after a free survey.

What happens at the survey?

For Peterborough jobs we confirm loading and parking arrangements early, because access often shapes the programme as much as the build itself.

In and around Peterborough we are usually asked to work on showrooms and trade counters and high street units and corner shops.

What is included?

  • Waste and grease management
  • Serving counter with display and hot holding
  • Kitchen line layout and stainless fabrication
  • Extraction canopy and odour control
  • Wall cladding and coved flooring

What should Peterborough owners check first?

  • Wall finishes must be smooth, washable and non-absorbent in food areas.
  • Hot food takeaways need planning permission for the use class, and many councils restrict new takeaways near schools.
  • Odour control on the extraction is often a planning condition.

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.
