A fascia sign is the flat panel fixed along the board above a shop or office frontage, usually 3–4 mm aluminium composite carrying printed or cut-vinyl lettering, a logo and sometimes contact details.
Why choose fascia signs for a business in Penzance?
- Taking over an older unit in Penzance? A new panel can usually go straight over the existing fascia board, without stripping it out.
- Where footfall on a Penzance high street is heavy, a clean, high-contrast fascia is often read before passers-by notice the window display.
- If your Penzance shop is one of a parade, a well-proportioned panel can stand out without breaking the shared fascia line.

Do you need permission for a sign in Penzance?
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.
