What should Dumfries 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 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.
