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.
Where built-up 3D letters can pay off in Wellingborough
- Showrooms and dealerships around Wellingborough can use large painted aluminium letters in brand colours on high walls seen from a passing road.
- A Wellingborough restaurant with a handsome stone or brick front can skip a fascia panel and let fabricated letters sit directly on the masonry.
- Letters for Wellingborough frontages are usually 304 stainless; where a building faces the sea or a gritted main road, 316 keeps its finish for longer.
What built-up 3D letters cost in Wellingborough
We publish guide prices so you can plan before you get in touch. For built-up 3D letters the range is £55–£165 per letter, not including VAT, and the final price is confirmed after we survey the site or check the artwork.

Do you need permission for a sign in Wellingborough?
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.
