Takeaway and hot food fit-out across Norfolk
From Cromer to Norwich, we deliver takeaway and hot food fit-out for independent owners and multi-site operators across Norfolk, with fixed prices and a dated programme.
A takeaway fit-out is a compact commercial kitchen with a customer counter and a waiting area, built to food hygiene standards and with extraction that satisfies planning conditions.
Working in Norfolk
Most enquiries we get from Norfolk come from shopping centre units and retail park stores or showrooms and trade counters, and the survey is where we pick up the details that change the price.
The East of England mixes historic market towns with new town centres and retail parks, which means a shopfitter here is as likely to work on a listed frontage as on a modern shell unit.
What does the work include?
- Serving counter with display and hot holding
- Kitchen line layout and stainless fabrication
- Extraction canopy and odour control
- Wall cladding and coved flooring

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.
- Odour control on the extraction is often a planning condition.
- Wall finishes must be smooth, washable and non-absorbent in food areas.
