Canopies and glazed extensions in Cramlington
Cafes across Northumberland that want extra covers can look at a small glazed extension, subject to consent for your Cramlington premises.
A canopy gives customers cover at your Cramlington door, which helps on wet days if people queue or wait outside. Consent needs differ from site to site, so for premises in Northumberland we confirm what your Cramlington canopy needs before manufacture starts.
We are based in Great Barr, Birmingham, about 176 miles away, and send fitting teams across the North East. Travel is included in your written quote, not added afterwards. Our Cramlington work takes in NE13, NE22, NE23. Neighbouring Blyth and Ashington are covered too.

What does it cost in Cramlington?
Canopies and small glazed extensions usually cost £1,995 to £9,995 ex VAT per canopy or small extension, supplied and fitted. Size, roof type, structure and foundations set the range, with extensions at the upper end. Structural calculations, drainage, lighting and application fees can add to it. If the work crosses the pavement, highway consent may also be needed. We measure first and confirm the price in writing.
We check the wall at your Cramlington premises first, because the load from a canopy has to go somewhere solid. If you can't close, we phase the work: one bay at a time, with the unit left secure and weathertight every night.
Common questions
Do you work in NE13, NE22, NE23?
Yes. Cramlington and the NE13, NE22, NE23 postcodes are covered, as is the rest of Northumberland. Send your postcode with your enquiry and we will come back to you with the next step.
What glass should be used in a canopy?
Laminated glass should be used overhead, because it stays in place if it breaks. Laminated toughened glass is the common choice for canopies fixed with brackets or tie rods. The thickness depends on span, fixing and loads, so it is confirmed by calculation.
Can a canopy extend over the pavement?
Sometimes, but only with the agreement of the highway authority. Expect a minimum height, commonly between 2.3 and 2.75 m, and a set distance back from the kerb. A licence may be required, and planning permission usually applies too. We check with your authority first.
Do I need planning permission for a new shopfront in Cramlington?
Usually yes, if the new front changes how the building looks. Like-for-like repairs usually don't. Your local planning authority decides, and we can prepare the drawings. Signs and external shutters have their own rules.
