Timber shop fronts Cornwall

We look at your existing Cornwall joinery first, because sound sills, pilasters or brackets on older buildings in the South West can often be repaired and kept. If your Cornwall unit sits in a conservation area, we can prepare drawings for the application, and the council makes the final decision.

What do we offer in Cornwall?

Slim double-glazed unitsSlim sealed units can sit in moulded glazing bars where heat loss or street noise matters.

Stained or oiled finishThis shows the grain on hardwood fronts. Oiled finishes need more frequent upkeep on sunny or exposed elevations.

Engineered timberLaminated sections resist twisting better than solid boards, which helps on long transoms and large door frames.

How much does it cost in Cornwall?

The guide price is £3,995 to £9,995 ex VAT for a typical frontage. Exposure varies from street to street in the South West, so we choose the timber and paint system for your Cornwall frontage after seeing it. We set out every cost in writing before work starts.

Common questions

Do you cover all of Cornwall?

Yes. ShopFronts UK works across Cornwall, including Bodmin, Falmouth, Newquay, Penzance.

Is timber allowed in a conservation area?

Yes, and it is often what the planning authority prefers. A material change to the frontage can still need planning permission in England, and rules differ in Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland. We can prepare the drawings for your application, and the council makes the decision.

Can you repair my timber shopfront instead of replacing it?

Often, yes. Rotten sills, rails and glazing bars can usually be cut out and spliced. Repair work starts with a charged diagnostic visit, from £125 ex VAT, and we tell you the cost before we come out, then advise whether repair or replacement makes more sense.

How often does a timber shop front need painting?

Plan for repainting every few years, depending on exposure and the paint system. South-facing and coastal fronts need attention sooner. Check the sills and bottom rails each year, and touch up any chips before water gets into the joints.
