Timber shopfronts in Birmingham
Timber shopfronts in Birmingham start from about £3,800 plus VAT for a standard opening, with a free survey and a written quotation before anything is ordered.
Around Birmingham, we start by measuring the actual opening, not a photo and the timber shopfronts are then made to those dimensions.
Price guide
Budget from £3,800 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 5-7 weeks after drawing sign-off. Fitting a standard Birmingham unit is normally one to two days on site. We can fit on a day the business is shut.
What gets fitted
Where a parade is listed or sits in a conservation area, the planning authority will often expect timber. You can specify concealed modern weathering and security details; engineered hardwood sections.
