Traditional and heritage shop fronts Wiltshire

We can prepare drawings for heritage work in Wiltshire, and we agree the details with you before the local planning authority receives anything. Heritage joinery takes longer, so owners in Wiltshire and across the South West should plan around consent and making time before any lease deadline.

What do we offer in Wiltshire?

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.

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

How much does it cost in Wiltshire?

Expect £5,995 to £14,995 ex VAT for a typical frontage. Period buildings in the South West often have uneven openings, so each section of your Wiltshire shopfront is made to measured sizes. The price we confirm in writing includes travel and access.

Common questions

Do you cover all of Wiltshire?

Yes. ShopFronts UK works across Wiltshire, including Chippenham, Salisbury, Swindon, Trowbridge.

Can a heritage shopfront meet access rules?

Usually, with care. The Equality Act 2010 requires reasonable adjustments in England, Scotland and Wales, and Northern Ireland uses the Disability Discrimination Act 1995. Options include a portable ramp, a wider door leaf or a gently sloped lobby, and the conservation officer should be involved early.

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.
