What is shopfitting like in Hampshire?
Most enquiries we get from Hampshire come from cafés, takeaways and independent restaurants or pharmacies and healthcare premises, and the survey is where we pick up the details that change the price.
Across the South East, market towns with conservation areas sit next to large retail parks, so shopfront design often needs to satisfy planners on the high street while retail park units follow the landlord's specification.
What does the work include?
- Kitchen line layout and stainless fabrication
- Extraction canopy and odour control
- Wall cladding and coved flooring
- Delivery driver collection point
