Aluminium cladding and ACM panels Somerset

Core choice depends on the building, so we confirm the fire requirements for your Somerset premises before choosing a panel. Scaffold or tower access may be needed, and we build that into the quote so owners in the South West see the full cost of a Somerset job.

What do we offer in Somerset?

Perforated panelsPerforated sheet can screen plant or add a pattern, with optional backlighting.

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.

How much does it cost in Somerset?

As a guide, allow £120 to £260 ex VAT per m². Cladding changes how a building looks, so in the South West we confirm with you whether a planning application is likely for your Somerset unit. The price we confirm in writing includes travel and access.

Common questions

Do you cover all of Somerset?

Yes. ShopFronts UK works across Somerset, including Bath, Bridgwater, Frome, Glastonbury.

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.

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.

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.
