Built-up letters are three-dimensional letters fabricated, usually from metal sheet, with a face and returns joined into a hollow letter typically 50–100 mm deep, then fixed to a wall or sign on locators.
Reasons to choose built-up 3D letters in Deeside
- Letters for Deeside frontages are usually 304 stainless; where a building faces the sea or a gritted main road, 316 keeps its finish for longer.
- A Deeside restaurant with a handsome stone or brick front can skip a fascia panel and let fabricated letters sit directly on the masonry.
- Refurbishing a frontage in Deeside? Plan letter positions with the architect's drawings so fresh render isn't drilled twice.

Do you need permission for a sign in Deeside?
Wales still uses the Town and Country Planning (Control of Advertisements) Regulations 1992, as amended. The system looks similar to England's, with some signs allowed under deemed consent and others needing express consent from the council, but the details differ, so we check with the local planning authority rather than assume English limits apply. On a listed building, listed building consent is usually needed as well, and works without it can be a criminal offence. We look at your premises before you commit and can prepare drawings and photos for an application, or submit it for you.
