Aluminium cladding and ACM panels Cambridgeshire

Cladding changes how a building looks, so in the East of England we confirm with you whether a planning application is likely for your Cambridgeshire unit. Core choice depends on the building, so we confirm the fire requirements for your Cambridgeshire premises before choosing a panel.

What do we offer in Cambridgeshire?

Mineral-filled coreA mineral-filled core gives a much better reaction to fire class than a polyethylene core, and it is often the starting point for external walls.

Cassette panelsFolded trays hang on a rail, with hidden fixings and neat shadow gaps.

Column and soffit casingsPanels wrap columns, beams and canopy undersides to tidy up the structure.

How much does it cost in Cambridgeshire?

Expect £120 to £260 ex VAT per m². Scaffold or tower access may be needed, and we build that into the quote so owners in the East of England see the full cost of a Cambridgeshire job. Your written quote shows travel, access and any out-of-hours work.

Common questions

Do you cover all of Cambridgeshire?

Yes. ShopFronts UK works across Cambridgeshire, including Cambridge, Ely, March, Peterborough.

Is ACM cladding safe to use?

It depends on the core and where it is used. In England, metal composite panels with an unmodified polyethylene core are banned from the external walls of buildings of any height. Mineral-filled and solid aluminium options are available. Rules differ in Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland, so check early.

Can cladding go over existing brickwork?

Yes, using a support frame fixed back to sound brickwork, with a ventilated gap behind the panels. We check the substrate first, as loose render or damp walls need attention before anything covers them. Insulation and cavity barriers may also be required under building regulations.

Do I need planning permission for shop cladding?

Usually yes in England, if the cladding materially alters how the building looks. Recladding a fascia like for like may not need it, but a new colour or material across a facade usually will. Rules differ in Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland, and listed buildings need extra care.
