Traditional and heritage shop fronts Staffordshire

Surviving brackets and cornices on Staffordshire premises are worth keeping, so we record them at survey before any removal is discussed. Local archives across the West Midlands may hold old photographs of your Staffordshire premises, and these can guide an accurate rebuild of a lost frontage.

What do we offer in Staffordshire?

Traditional stall risersPanelled timber, glazed tile or stone can be matched to the age of the building.

Matched mouldingsProfiles are copied from existing sections, so new work sits correctly beside the old.

Hand-painted fasciaSign-written or gilded lettering on a painted fascia keeps the frontage in period, and it is often preferred in sensitive locations.

How much does it cost in Staffordshire?

Budget £5,995 to £14,995 ex VAT for a typical frontage. Check the listing status of your Staffordshire building early, because listed building consent can be needed even for small changes to the frontage. We set out every cost in writing before work starts.

Common questions

Do you cover all of Staffordshire?

Yes. ShopFronts UK works across Staffordshire, including Burton upon Trent, Cannock, Leek, Lichfield.

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.

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.

How do you match old mouldings?

We take a profile from the surviving timber and have a matching section made. Where nothing survives, we look at old photographs and neighbouring frontages of the same period. The drawings show each profile, so the conservation officer can comment before anything is cut.
