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.
Reasons to choose fascia signs in Harwich
- Where footfall on a Harwich high street is heavy, a clean, high-contrast fascia is often read before passers-by notice the window display.
- Taking over an older unit in Harwich? A new panel can usually go straight over the existing fascia board, without stripping it out.
- Retail park landlords often want drawings before approving signs, and a scale visual of your Harwich fascia gives them exactly that.
What fascia signs cost in Harwich

Do you need permission for a sign in Harwich?
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.
