Shopfront repairs in Consett
Where a fault on your Consett frontage cannot be priced from photos, a charged diagnostic visit finds the cause, and you hear that cost beforehand.

Before booking a repair to a rented unit in Consett or elsewhere in County Durham, check your lease, since it may make the landlord responsible for the frontage. Landlords with units in Consett and across County Durham can use one contractor for frames, glass, doors, locks and signs rather than booking separate trades.
We are based in Great Barr, Birmingham, about 160 miles away, and send fitting teams across the North East. Travel is included in your written quote, not added afterwards. Postcodes we work in around here include DH8, DH9, NE17, and we also cover Stanley, Chester-le-Street and Durham nearby.
What can we sort out in Consett?
What does it cost in Consett?
A shopfront repair usually costs £125 to £995 ex VAT for most single repairs. Send photos first, because many jobs can be priced from them. Where a fault cannot be priced that way, we book a charged diagnostic visit, from £125 ex VAT, and you hear that cost before we come out. Parts, access and out-of-hours work can move the figure, so we confirm the repair price before starting.
If part of your Consett shopfront has stopped working, send us photos first and we will tell you whether it can be priced without a visit. Tell us your opening hours when you book and we will plan the Consett job around them, with overnight or weekend fitting where the work allows.
Common questions
Can you come out to Consett for a survey?
Yes. New shopfronts and full refurbishments get a free survey in Consett. Repairs are a charged visit, and we tell you the cost of the visit before anyone comes out.
Do shopfront repairs need planning permission?
Like-for-like repairs usually do not need planning permission in England. A change that materially alters the appearance may need it, and a listed building may need listed building consent. Rules differ in Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland, so check with your council before changing the look.
Can repairs be done outside trading hours?
Yes, out-of-hours, overnight and weekend work can be arranged so you can keep trading. Tell us your opening times when you first get in touch. We confirm the booking and any change in cost before the work is scheduled.
What do I do if my shop in Consett is broken into?
Call the police first if a crime is in progress, then call our 24/7 line on 0800 088 6341. We will tell you the arrival time when you call, and board up or reglaze so the premises are secure.
