Business signs for new businesses – Cost to Budget for Your Business Sign.
Simple Flat Signs
A simple flat sign (painted or printed) in aluminium or foamex can cost from £50 to £200, for example as a window graphic, interior sign or a simple fascia sign for the exterior of a shop. The prices are for basic flat signs, and are thus a good starting point for any business requiring signs.
Built-Up and Illuminated Signs
As for business signs that are lit up or three-dimensional letters, these can cost a lot more than simple signs. LED-illuminated channel letters and light boxes can start at around £500 and go up to several thousand for large or complex designs that are to be used on exterior walls of properties where visibility is important after dark.
What Pushes the Price Up
The price of signs is generally determined by two factors: size and material. We use dibond, acrylic and stainless steel/aluminium in our signs. The cheapest material being dibond or acrylic and the most expensive being stainless steel or brushed aluminium. Other factors which can add to the cost of signs are: complex shapes or designs, full colour digital printing, special coatings etc. Also signs to be installed on high or difficult frontages will also add to the cost.
Planning Permission and What It Costs You
Exterior signs which require advertisement consent (and therefore planning permission) for business signs in England will need an application to be made along with the required fee. The business signs planning permission rules for advertisement consent set out when such application will be required, but it’s worth noting that application time will be required for approval before signs can be displayed.
