Permission and Leicester City Council
The local planning authority for Leicester is Leicester City Council. Replacing an existing frontage in the same style seldom needs permission, though external shutters and lit signs normally need approval. We check which applies to your unit at survey.
What it costs in Leicester
Budget from £2,450 plus VAT as a starting point. Your quote depends on the opening size, the finish and how easy access is. Once issued, the price is fixed for 90 days unless the specification changes.
Lead times
Lead time is typically 3-4 weeks after drawing sign-off. Installation in Leicester is usually a day or two once everything is made. Closed-day or out-of-hours work can be arranged.
Specification notes
Aluminium is the default for high-street retail because the sections stay slim, the powder coat can match any brand colour, and the frame will not rot, swell or warp. Options include any RAL colour, including dual-colour frames; toughened or laminated safety glass to BS EN 12150 / 14449.
Coverage
We treat Leicester as part of our Leicestershire round including the LE postcodes, so the team is regularly nearby in Melton Mowbray, Coalville and Market Harborough.
