Traditional and heritage shop fronts South Yorkshire

Local archives across Yorkshire and the Humber may hold old photographs of your South Yorkshire premises, and these can guide an accurate rebuild of a lost frontage. Period buildings in Yorkshire and the Humber often have uneven openings, so each section of your South Yorkshire shopfront is made to measured sizes.

What do we offer in South Yorkshire?

Slim or secondary glazingWhere heat loss is an issue, slim sealed units or internal secondary glazing may be possible, subject to consent.

Like-for-like restorationOriginal pilasters, consoles and cornices are repaired and kept, with new timber spliced in only where decay has gone too far.

Period reconstructionA lost frontage is rebuilt from old photographs, surviving fragments and the evidence in neighbouring buildings.

How much does it cost in South Yorkshire?

The guide price is £5,995 to £14,995 ex VAT for a typical frontage. Heritage joinery takes longer, so owners in South Yorkshire and across Yorkshire and the Humber should plan around consent and making time before any lease deadline. The price we confirm in writing includes travel and access.

Common questions

Do you cover all of South Yorkshire?

Yes. ShopFronts UK works across South Yorkshire, including Barnsley, Doncaster, Maltby, Mexborough.

Do I need listed building consent for a new shopfront?

Yes, if the building is listed and the work affects its special character. Doing that work without consent is a criminal offence. Planning permission may also be needed. Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland run their own systems, so we confirm the route for your building.

How long does a heritage shopfront take?

Allow longer than for a standard front: a typical 8 to 14 weeks of making after consent, plus the time the council takes to decide. Delays usually come from missing information, so we prepare the drawings and details carefully before you submit.

My shop is in a conservation area. What changes?

Expect closer scrutiny of materials, detail and signs. The council will usually look for a design that preserves or improves the character of the area, and some areas have extra controls on small changes. We can prepare drawings, though the decision stays with the council.
