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.
Built-up 3D letters in Mountain Ash: the practical benefits
- Showrooms and dealerships around Mountain Ash can use large painted aluminium letters in brand colours on high walls seen from a passing road.
- For an office building on the edge of Mountain Ash with plain brick or cladding, brushed stainless letters read clearly from the car park.
- A Mountain Ash restaurant with a handsome stone or brick front can skip a fascia panel and let fabricated letters sit directly on the masonry.

Do you need permission for a sign in Mountain Ash?
Putting up a non-illuminated sign in Wales? Some signs on business premises can go up under deemed consent, but the 1992 Advertisement Regulations that apply in Wales set their own conditions, which differ in detail from England's. Conservation areas and listed buildings need more care, and a listed building usually needs listed building consent too, with fixings into mortar joints rather than the stone or brick face generally preferred. Our approach is simple: we confirm with the council what applies to your building before you spend anything, then prepare the drawings or submit the application for you if one is needed.
