In and around Hawick we are usually asked to work on pharmacies and healthcare premises and showrooms and trade counters.

  • Wall cladding and coved flooring
  • Delivery driver collection point
  • Waste and grease management
  • Serving counter with display and hot holding

What should Hawick owners check first?

  • 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.
  • Wall finishes must be smooth, washable and non-absorbent in food areas.

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.
