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.
Points in favour of built-up 3D letters in Halifax
- Business park tenants in Halifax who mount letters on a shared entrance canopy should check the landlord's signage rules first.
- For an office building on the edge of Halifax with plain brick or cladding, brushed stainless letters read clearly from the car park.
- Letters for Halifax 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 Halifax
Prices below are guides, not quotes: £55 to £165 per letter plus VAT, depending on size, materials and access. We confirm the exact figure after a survey or an artwork check, and it is agreed before anything is made.
| Item | Guide, ex VAT | Inc. VAT (20%) |
|---|---|---|
| Fabricated letter, 300 mm tall | £55 – £165 | £66 – £198 |
| Typical business name (10–14 letters) | £850 – £2,600 | £1,020 – £3,120 |
| Logo or symbol, made to the same depth | £150 – £650 | £180 – £780 |
The metal drives cost first: painted aluminium sits at the lower end, mirror stainless and brass finishes at the top. Letter height, return depth, letter count, stand-off locators, access height and the wall surface follow. Every price is confirmed after survey and an artwork check.

Do you need permission for a sign in Halifax?
Will you need permission? For a non-illuminated sign at your own business address in England, usually not, as long as it stays inside the deemed consent limits: letters no taller than 0.75 m (0.3 m in an area of special control) and nothing above the bottom of a first-floor window. Historic streets need more care. In a conservation area the details matter more, and fixing to a listed building usually needs listed building consent, with fixings into mortar joints rather than brick or stone faces generally preferred. We check with you before anything is ordered, and can prepare drawings and photos for an application, or submit it for you.
