Does my landlord need to approve the sign?

Check your lease first. Many parades, retail parks and managed estates set rules on sign size, colour, materials and lighting, and some want drawings approved in writing. We can supply a scale drawing and a visual of the sign on your frontage for them.

Do I need to be there when the sign is fitted?

Not usually, as long as the frontage is accessible and power to any old sign lighting can be isolated. We agree the date with you, cone off and manage the pavement area while working, fit around your opening hours where access allows, and send photos once it is up.

What can delay fascia signs in Corby?

The usual causes are artwork changes after the proof stage, waiting for consent, access arrangements such as a council licence for scaffolding on the pavement, and weather for outdoor fitting. Jobs typically run smoothly once the proof is approved and any consent is in place, but we do not promise dates that depend on things outside our control.

Do you work across Northamptonshire or only in Corby?

Across all of Northamptonshire, and the rest of the UK too. Corby is simply one of the places we list, and enquiries from anywhere nearby follow exactly the same steps: photos or a survey, a scaled proof, a written price, then making and fitting once you sign off the design.

Will the location in Corby affect the cost of fascia signs?

Location is one factor among several, alongside size, material, access equipment and design time. Our guide range is £495–£1,650 per sign + VAT; any travel, parking or access costs for your site in Corby are included in the written quote we confirm after a survey or artwork check, so you can see them before you commit.

Can a sign go above a roller shutter box?

Yes. Shutter boxes often sit just under or across the fascia, so we measure around them at survey. The panel can sit above the box, or cover it with a removable section so the shutter can still be serviced. Tell us if the motor needs access.

Do you need permission for a sign in Corby?

Advertisement consent in England comes from the Town and Country Planning (Control of Advertisements) (England) Regulations 2007. A sign is either excluded from control, has deemed consent, or needs express consent from the council's planning department. For a plain, unlit sign on your own premises, deemed consent usually applies when characters are 0.75 m tall or less (0.3 m in an area of special control) and the top edge is below the first-floor windows. Conservation areas need more care, and a listed building usually needs listed building consent as well; working without it can be a criminal offence. We confirm the route before you commit, and can prepare the drawings for an application or submit it for you.
