Coverage in and around Sale
Whether your property is in the centre of Sale or on its edges, it is included in our Greater Manchester coverage.
We also cover Stretford, Urmston and Altrincham, so premises in more than one of these places can be quoted together.
Sale sits some 5 miles to the south-west of Manchester.
If you let out a property in Sale, window and door shutters can protect it between tenancies or bookings, and solar or remote control avoids extra wiring.
For shops in Sale, the shutter is specified around how often it runs, how the frontage looks and what your landlord or council expects.
Planning and safety in Sale
Planning in Sale follows the Town and Country Planning Act 1990 and the permitted development rules in England. Shopfront shutters usually need planning permission; for houses it depends on the property, and listed buildings need listed building consent from the council, with Historic England involved for higher-grade buildings.
Electrical work for powered shutters is carried out to BS 7671, with notifiable work in homes (under Part P) self-certified by an electrician registered with a competent person scheme or notified to building control.
Fire shutters in workplaces and other non-domestic premises, including the common parts of blocks of flats, are maintained under the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005, where the responsible person is responsible for keeping fire safety measures in working order. Fire shutters that form part of building work also need approval from building control (council or a registered building control approver).
