Will flat-cut letters damage my wall?

Fixing needs small holes for studs, and adhesive can pull paint when letters are removed. On leased premises, check what your lease allows; we can fix with studs only, so the holes are small and simple to fill when you move out.

How long does it take to get flat-cut letters in Strabane?

It typically takes a few weeks from first enquiry, with much of that time falling after you approve the proof, while the work is made and scheduled. Graphics and vehicle jobs are typically shorter than fabricated or illuminated signs. If advertisement consent is needed, the council's decision comes first and adds to the overall timescale.

How thick should flat-cut letters be?

For most receptions, 5 mm suits smaller text and 10 mm suits main names and logos. Outside, the thicker end of the range is safer because it resists bowing and shows a visible edge from the side. Very large letters usually move into metal or built-up construction.

Can flat-cut letters be lit?

They can be picked out with external lighting, such as a wall-washer or spotlights, but a solid flat-cut letter has no room for internal LEDs. For a glowing effect, consider halo-lit letters, which are built with depth for LEDs, or an LED neon sign for an interior feature.

Do you cover smaller places near Strabane as well?

Yes. Our coverage is not limited to Strabane itself: nearby towns, industrial estates and business parks across County Tyrone are included too. The process does not change with the postcode. Send photos and approximate sizes, and we will tell you whether a site visit is needed before we can give you a fixed price.

Do you need permission for a sign in Strabane?

Before any exterior sign goes up in Northern Ireland, it is worth checking the 2015 NI Advertisement Regulations. Some straightforward signs on business premises fall within what is allowed without applying, but the conditions are Northern Ireland's own and conservation areas need more care. Listed buildings usually need listed building consent as well, and works without it can be a criminal offence. We confirm the position with you before you commit to flat-cut letters, and we can prepare the drawings and photographs for an NI Planning Portal application or submit it for you.
