Shopfront refurbishment and refits Cumbria

New tenants in Cumbria can inherit a tired frontage, so we start with what can stay and price only the work it needs. Landlords preparing units in the North West to let can refresh the door, fascia and paint on a Cumbria frontage without a full replacement.

What do we offer in Cumbria?

Access upgradeA refit is a good moment for a wider door leaf, a lower threshold and easier handles.

New door and hardwareReplacing a worn door, floor spring, closer and lock gets a tired entrance working properly again.

ReglazingMisted units, scratched panes and unsafe old glass are replaced with suitable safety glass.

How much does it cost in Cumbria?

As a guide, allow £1,495 to £6,995 ex VAT depending on what is kept. Check your lease before refurbishing a Cumbria unit, as many landlords must agree changes to the frontage before work starts. The price we confirm in writing includes travel and access.

Which towns do you cover?

Common questions

Do you cover all of Cumbria?

Yes. ShopFronts UK works across Cumbria, including Barrow-in-Furness, Carlisle, Kendal, Penrith.

Can you change the colour of my existing aluminium frames?

Yes. Existing powder-coated frames can be cleaned, prepared and resprayed in place in a RAL colour of your choice. Surface preparation decides how long the new finish lasts. Badly corroded sections may need to come out for stripping and recoating.

Who pays for a shopfront refit, landlord or tenant?

That depends on your lease. Many leases make the tenant responsible for the frontage, while others leave it with the landlord or require the landlord's consent to alterations. Read the repair and alterations clauses, or ask your solicitor, before booking the work.

Does a shopfront refurbishment need planning permission?

Often not for like-for-like work in England, but a change that materially alters the frontage usually does. New illuminated signs can need advertisement consent, and listed buildings need listed building consent for many changes. Rules differ in Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland, so check before work begins.
