Shop, Café & Restaurant Fit-Outs in Fulham.
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 Fulham we start with the lease and the landlord's requirements, check what the London Borough of Hammersmith and Fulham will need for the shopfront and any change of use, and then agree a fixed programme with you.

Fulham: the houses and the planning rules.
Fulham is late Victorian family housing on a huge scale: long streets of three-storey terraces built in the 1880s and 1890s, the distinctive Peterborough estate with its stone lions, the larger houses around Parsons Green and the Hurlingham Club, and the new riverside developments along the Thames. Families move here for the houses and then extend them.
Side-return and rear extensions, loft conversions with rear dormers, and basements are the standard sequence for a Fulham terrace, and a full refurbishment often does all three at once. The borough's basement policy and conservation area guidance are well established and we design to them from the outset.
The Parsons Green, Hurlingham, Peterborough Estate, Moore Park and Sands End conservation areas cover most of the residential streets.
London Borough of Hammersmith and Fulham
The borough decides applications. Article 4 directions in most conservation areas mean rear extensions and roof works need a householder application.
Basements
Basements are limited to a single storey and to a proportion of the garden, with a construction method statement and neighbour notification.
Peterborough estate
The Lion houses have specific guidance on roofs, front elevations and rear extensions to keep the estate's uniformity.
Approvals for shop, café and restaurant fit-outs in Fulham.
Internal fit-out rarely needs planning permission, but new shopfronts, signage and changes of use do, and landlords have their own approval process. Food premises need extraction and drainage designed to building regulations and environmental health requirements.

Shop, Café & Restaurant Fit-Outs in Fulham: your questions.
Can you fit out a shop or café in Fulham around trading hours?
Yes. We plan the programme around your opening hours and the landlord's rules, building joinery off site and installing overnight where necessary.
Do I need permission for a new shopfront?
Usually yes. Shopfront changes need planning permission from the London Borough of Hammersmith and Fulham and illuminated signage needs advertisement consent. We prepare and submit both.

All of Fulham and SW6, including Parsons Green Lane, Peterborough Road, Hurlingham Road, New King's Road, Studdridge Street, Broomhouse Road, and the neighbouring districts. We are based in London and our teams work across central, north, north-west, west and south-west London.
