Flat-cut letters are individual letters and logos cut from a single solid sheet, typically 5–10 mm acrylic, aluminium composite or metal, and fixed flush to a wall or held off it on stand-offs.
Flat-cut letters in Chelsea: the practical benefits
- For a Chelsea salon or studio on a modest budget, matte black acrylic on a pale wall gives a designed look without fabrication costs.
- A serviced office or co-working space in Chelsea may want a crisp reception name that can change as tenants move on.
- Ground-floor shops in Chelsea can mount 10 mm metal letters on stand-offs over a painted fascia, getting depth for less.
What flat-cut letters cost in Chelsea
Below is the guide pricing we use for flat-cut letters: from £18 up to £65 per letter, before VAT. These are not fixed quotes. A written price follows once measurements are taken and your artwork has been checked.
| Item | Guide, ex VAT | Inc. VAT (20%) |
|---|---|---|
| Flat-cut letter, 300 mm tall | £18 – £65 | £21.60 – £78 |
| Typical reception or fascia name set | £320 – £1,200 | £384 – £1,440 |
| Fitting template and locators | £45 – £120 | £54 – £144 |
Material and thickness drive most of the difference: acrylic and aluminium composite sit at the lower end, solid metal and mirror finishes at the top. Letter count and height, stand-offs, colour matching, the wall surface and access follow, and every price is confirmed after an artwork check and survey.

Do you need permission for a sign in Chelsea?
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.
Covering Chelsea and Greater London
Yes, Chelsea is covered, as is the rest of Greater London. For signs that are fixed to a wall or wired in, we arrange a visit to survey first. For window film, lettering or vehicle graphics, a set of photos with measurements is often all we need to put a price together. Addresses in SW3, SW10, SW7 and SW1W are all within our Chelsea coverage. Roughly 2.3 miles separate Chelsea from central London, which lies to the north-east.
