Canopies and glazed extensions in Leamington Spa
Anything over a pavement in Leamington Spa needs early contact with the highway or roads authority, so we raise it at the first visit.
Cafes across Warwickshire that want extra covers can look at a small glazed extension, subject to consent for your Leamington Spa premises. A canopy gives customers cover at your Leamington Spa door, which helps on wet days if people queue or wait outside.
Leamington Spa is about 24 miles from our Great Barr base in Birmingham, so surveys are easy to plan. We cover CV31, CV32 and the surrounding streets, along with Warwick, Kenilworth and Coventry.

What does it cost in Leamington Spa?
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 Leamington Spa premises first, because the load from a canopy has to go somewhere solid. Tell us your opening hours when you book and we will plan the Leamington Spa job around them, with overnight or weekend fitting where the work allows.
Common questions
Can you come out to Leamington Spa for a survey?
Yes. New shopfronts and full refurbishments get a free survey in Leamington Spa. Repairs are a charged visit, and we tell you the cost of the visit before anyone comes out.
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 shop canopy?
Often yes in England, as a canopy usually changes the appearance of the building. Extensions normally need permission too, although limited permitted development rights exist for shops. Listed buildings need consent, and rules differ in Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland, so we check this early.
Do I need planning permission for a new shopfront in Leamington Spa?
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.
