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 Washington?
- Taking over an older unit in Washington? A new panel can usually go straight over the existing fascia board, without stripping it out.
- For a Washington unit in a conservation area, a matt panel with restrained lettering is often the easier design to agree.
- Takeaways and cafés in Washington trading into the evening can pair a flat fascia with LED trough lighting instead of a lightbox.

Use these figures to budget: £495 to £1,650 per sign is the guide range, with VAT added on top. Each line in the table is indicative only, and your exact price is confirmed after a survey or once we have looked over the artwork.

Do you need permission for a sign in Washington?
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.
