Shop fascia signs
A flat panel or tray sign across the front of the shop, printed or cut from vinyl and fixed to the fascia board.
Fascia up to 4 mfrom $650
Shop signs, van graphics and banners, made here and fitted by us
We design the sign, make it in our own workshop and fit it ourselves, from a single window graphic to lit letters across a whole fascia. Every quote comes with a mock up of the sign on a photo of your premises.

Signs we design, make and fit
Starting prices for a typical small shop or a single van. Your price is fixed after the site survey.
Built up and lit letters
Individual letters in acrylic or metal, unlit, face lit or halo lit with LEDs, fixed on spacers so they cast a crisp shadow.
Set of lettersfrom $1,800
Projecting and hanging signs
Double sided signs on a bracket at right angles to the wall, so people walking along the pavement see the shop first.
Bracket signfrom $480
Vehicle graphics and wraps
Cut vinyl lettering, part wraps and full colour change wraps for vans, cars and food trucks.
Van liveryfrom $750
Window graphics and frosting
Opening hours, logos, privacy frosting and printed displays for glass, applied inside or outside.
Shop windowfrom $220
Banners and event signs
Mesh banners for fences and scaffolding, roller banners for events and printed boards for site hoardings.
Mesh bannerfrom $140
Taking down an old sign and making good the fascia are priced separately, because nobody knows what is behind an old sign until it comes off.
Which material for which job
The right material depends on where the sign goes and how long it has to last. These are the ones our workshop uses most.
| Material | Where it works | Where it does not |
|---|---|---|
| Aluminium composite panel | Flat fascias and wall signs that must stay flat for years | Curved surfaces |
| Acrylic | Built up letters, light boxes and indoor plaques | Low spots where it can be kicked or knocked |
| Cast vinyl | Vehicles, curves and panels with rivets | Rough brick or textured render |
| Mesh banner | Fences and scaffolding where wind has to pass through | Small text read up close |
| Foam PVC board | Indoor signs and short term displays | Long summers in direct sun |
| Brushed stainless steel | Name plates and letters at entrances | Tight budgets |
Permission before the drill comes out
Signs are controlled differently from one country and one city to the next. Lit signs, projecting signs and anything on a historic building often need consent, and most leases ask for the landlord's written approval as well.
At the survey we tell you which permissions are likely to apply and draw the scaled elevations an application usually needs. The application itself stays with you or your agent, and nothing goes up until the approvals are in place.
- Scaled drawings and mock ups for applications
- Letters for your landlord on request
- Fitting booked once consent arrives
From survey to fitting day
Survey
We measure the frontage, photograph it and check the fixings, power supply and access.
Mock up
You see the sign on a photo of your premises, with sizes and materials, before approving anything.
Workshop
Panels are cut and printed, letters built and wired, and every lit sign is tested before it leaves.
Fitting
Our own team fits it, usually early in the morning, and takes every scrap of packaging away.
Businesses we have signed
Most of our work is for independent shops and local firms, plus the vans they drive.
- Cafes and bakeries
- Barbers and salons
- Dental and vet clinics
- Gyms
- Builders' vans
- Food trucks
- Estate agents
- Schools
- Reception walls
- Market stalls
- Restaurants
- Car dealers

Recent signs and graphics
A handful of jobs from the last few months, from a single emblem to a site hoarding.
What customers said after fitting day (example reviews)
The mock up on a photo of the cafe made the choice easy. The letters went up before seven in the morning and the cafe opened on time with the halo lighting already on.
Five vans lettered over two weekends so none of them was off the road on a working day. The graphics still look sharp after two winters.
They drew the elevations for the consent application and waited for approval before fitting the projecting sign. No surprises with the landlord or the council.
Asked at almost every survey
Does a new shop sign need permission?
Often, especially for lit or projecting signs and on historic buildings, but the rules vary by country and by city. We tell you at the survey what is likely to apply and prepare drawings for the application.
Can you match our existing logo?
Yes. Once you approve the quote, send us the best version you have and we redraw it if needed, so it cuts and prints cleanly at full size.
How long will an outdoor sign last?
That depends on the material, the sunlight and the weather where you are. We say what to expect from the material we suggest, and our workmanship is guaranteed for three years.
Can you wrap a leased van?
Usually, but check your lease first, because some leasing companies set rules about wraps and their removal. Good wrap film normally comes off cleanly at the end of a lease, and we can price the removal at the same time.
Do you take the old sign down?
Yes. Removal and making good the fascia are priced separately, because the condition behind an old sign is only known once it is off.
How is a sign paid for?
Half the price is due when you approve the mock up, so we can order materials, and the balance on the day the sign goes up, paid to us directly.
