Shop, Café & Restaurant Fit-Outs in Richmond.
A commercial fit-out is judged on one thing: whether the doors open on the date agreed. We have fitted out cafés, patisseries, restaurants and shops across London, including units in stations where working hours are tightly controlled, and we plan every job backwards from the opening date.
The work covers design and drawings, the landlord's approval, planning permission for shopfronts and signage, building control, and the fit-out itself: partitions, services, extraction, counters and joinery, flooring, lighting and decoration. Where the unit is trading, we build joinery off site and install overnight.
For a unit in Richmond we start with the lease and the landlord's requirements, check what the London Borough of Richmond upon Thames will need for the shopfront and any change of use, and then agree a fixed programme with you.

Richmond: the houses and the planning rules.
Richmond has Georgian houses around the Green and up the Hill, Victorian villas along the roads to the Park, and Edwardian streets between the station and Kew. The view from Richmond Hill is protected by Act of Parliament, and the conservation areas are among the most carefully managed in outer London.
Refurbishments here range from listed Georgian townhouses to Edwardian family houses that want a kitchen extension and a loft. The council's design guidance is detailed and its conservation officers are engaged, so the drawings and heritage statement are prepared to match.
The Richmond Town, Richmond Hill, Richmond Green and Kew Green conservation areas cover the centre and the riverside, and many houses are listed.
London Borough of Richmond upon Thames

Listed buildings

The view
The protected view from Richmond Hill and the Thames Policy Area affect roof extensions and riverside sites.
