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.
Why choose built-up 3D letters for a business in Rhondda?
- Hotels and venues in Rhondda wanting a lasting first impression may choose brass-finish letters, which suit traditional and modern buildings.
- For an office building on the edge of Rhondda with plain brick or cladding, brushed stainless letters read clearly from the car park.
- A Rhondda 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 Rhondda?
Deemed or express consent? In Wales the answer depends on the 1992 Control of Advertisements Regulations, as amended, rather than the English 2007 version. A plain, unlit sign on your own business frontage is often allowed without applying, within limits on size and position, but the details differ from England's, and conservation areas call for extra care. If the building is listed, expect to need listed building consent too. We check with the council before you commit to built-up 3D letters, and can prepare the drawings and photographs or handle the submission for you.
