How do we plan the job?
Before we price takeaway and hot food fit-out in Chester, we check the lease, the landlord's fit-out rules, the existing services and how materials can get into the unit.
In and around Chester we are usually asked to work on pharmacies and healthcare premises and high street units and corner shops.

What should Chester owners check first?
- Odour control on the extraction is often a planning condition.
- 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.
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.
