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.
Where fascia signs can pay off in Purley
- On a narrow street in Purley, people read signs at an angle, so clear letterforms matter more than sheer size.
- Takeaways and cafés in Purley trading into the evening can pair a flat fascia with LED trough lighting instead of a lightbox.
- If your Purley shop is one of a parade, a well-proportioned panel can stand out without breaking the shared fascia line.
What fascia signs cost in Purley
How much? Expect a guide range of £495–£1,650 per sign, VAT excluded. The rows below show what moves a job up or down that range, and the figure becomes firm once the survey or artwork check is done.
| Item | Guide, ex VAT | Inc. VAT (20%) |
|---|---|---|
| Aluminium composite fascia, up to 3 m | £495 – £950 | £594 – £1,140 |

Removing and disposing of an old sign is guided at £95 to £250, and a scaffold tower or access platform, if needed, at £150 to £450 per day, both excluding VAT. Repairs to the board are priced only if the survey shows they are needed, and every figure is confirmed after survey and an artwork check.

Do you need permission for a sign in Purley?
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.
