TFL-Approved Shop Fit-Outs in Kingston upon Thames.
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 Kingston upon Thames, 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.

Kingston upon Thames: the houses and the planning rules.
Kingston combines a historic market town with some of the largest private houses in south-west London on the Coombe estates, where detached houses sit in big gardens on private roads. Between them are Edwardian and inter-war family houses and Victorian terraces closer to the river.
We designed, supplied and fitted a kitchen on Coombe Lane North with high-gloss glass fronts, pine veneer, toughened glass worktops and Gaggenau appliances, a large room in a detached house where the kitchen had to match the scale of the space.
The Coombe Hill, Kingston Old Town and riverside conservation areas cover parts of the borough.
Royal Borough of Kingston
Kingston decides applications. The Coombe conservation areas and private estates have design guidance and covenants that affect extensions and external changes.
Detached houses
Larger plots allow double-storey extensions and basements that would not be possible in inner London, though most need a planning application.
Flood zones
Riverside streets fall within flood zones, which affects basements and ground-floor levels.
