Projecting signs in Gloucestershire
Before fixing anything over the pavement in Gloucestershire, we check what clearance the highway or roads authority expects and whether it needs a licence.
Bracket position matters on sensitive buildings in the South West, especially if your Gloucestershire premises are listed or in a conservation area. Bracket fixings depend on the wall, so we check the brick, stone or render on your Gloucestershire premises at the outset.

Common questions
Do you cover all of Gloucestershire?
Yes. ShopFronts UK works across Gloucestershire, including Cheltenham, Cirencester, Gloucester, Stroud.
Will a projecting sign damage my wall?
It should not, if the bracket is fixed into sound masonry with the right anchors. Older brick or stone may need different fixings, and listed buildings will need consent. We check the wall first and use mortar joints for fixings where that is the better choice.
Do I need permission for a projecting sign?
Often, yes. In England, non-illuminated signs may have deemed consent, but lit ones lose that route in conservation areas and similar places. The highway authority may also license anything over the pavement. Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland have their own rules, and we check these first.
Who is responsible if a sign falls?
Usually the person who owns or controls the sign, which makes regular checks worthwhile. Your public liability cover should include it, and your lease may say who maintains it. Look at the bracket and fixings every so often, particularly after high winds.
