TFL-Approved Shop Fit-Outs in Ruislip.
Retail units in stations are a market of their own. The work is approved by TFL's commercial team and the station operator before it starts, most of it happens after the last train, and the materials have to meet the fire and smoke standards for enclosed stations. We are approved to do this work and have fitted out units at London Bridge, Uxbridge and Acton Central stations and Harrow-on-the-Hill bus station.
For an operator taking a unit at a station serving Ruislip, we prepare the drawings, materials schedule, method statements and risk assessments the approval needs, build the counters and joinery off site, and install with our own trades in the access windows the station allows.
The opening date in the lease is the fixed point. We plan the programme backwards from it, book the night-time access in advance and hand over with the certificates the operator and TFL require.

Ruislip: the houses and the planning rules.
Ruislip grew along the Metropolitan line in the 1930s and is still defined by that decade: wide roads of semi-detached and detached houses with hipped roofs, bay windows and long gardens, around a medieval village core with timber-framed cottages and the Manor Farm site. Ruislip Woods and Lido lie to the north.
We fitted out the Masala Chowk restaurant in Ruislip from strip-out to opening, and the surrounding housing is well suited to the rear extensions, hip-to-gable lofts and full refurbishments we carry out across Metroland.
The Ruislip Village conservation area covers the old village; most other streets are unrestricted.
London Borough of Hillingdon
Hillingdon decides applications. Outside the village conservation area, permitted development covers most rear extensions and lofts.
Hipped roofs
Hip-to-gable conversions are the usual way to make a 1930s loft usable, generally within permitted development limits.
Commercial units
Restaurant and shop fit-outs need Hillingdon's consent for shopfront and signage changes and, where cooking is introduced, for extraction.
