Common questionsfit-outs

Quick answers

Do I need approval for a shop or cafe fit-out?

Often yes. Extraction, drainage, fire safety and accessibility all engage Building Regulations, and signage or use changes can need separate consent. We map what applies before work starts.

Can you coordinate with my contractor?

Yes. The drawings are prepared so a contractor can price and build from them, and we answer building control queries during the process.

Will this delay my opening?

Building Regulations work can often run alongside fit-out planning. Tell us your opening date and we will sequence the drawings around it.

Why Exp|Arc for a fit-out?

Fixed scope and price, unlimited revisions, and a 100% refund if any application we submit is refused.
