Do you need permission for a sign in Cambridge?

In England, a non-illuminated sign on your own business premises usually falls under deemed consent, which means no application is needed provided the sign stays within set limits. The lettering and symbols should be no more than 0.75 m tall (0.3 m in an area of special control), and the top of the sign should sit no higher than the bottom of any first-floor window. Conservation areas and listed buildings need more care: a sign on a listed building usually also needs listed building consent. We check the position for your premises before you commit, and we can prepare the drawings and photos for an application or submit it for you.

Signs in Cambridge: questions

What do you need from me to quote for business signs in Cambridge?

Photos are the most useful start: the whole frontage, window or vehicle, plus a close-up of the area involved. Add rough measurements, your logo or artwork if you have it, and the address. From that we can say whether a survey visit is needed and send a written quote, followed by a proof for you to approve.

Will the location in Cambridge affect the cost of fascia signs?

Location is one factor among several, alongside size, material, access equipment and design time. Our guide range is £495–£1,650 per sign + VAT; any travel, parking or access costs for your site in Cambridge are included in the written quote we confirm after a survey or artwork check, so you can see them before you commit.

Is there a typical lead time for van wraps in Cambridge?

Yes, though it varies with the job. The lead time typically runs from the day you approve the proof, not from the first enquiry, and is typically a few weeks. Survey visits, artwork changes and any consent application sit before that point, so getting photos, sizes and logo files to us early typically shortens the overall timescale.
