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.
Good reasons to look at flat-cut letters in Leigh
- Companies hosting clients in Leigh meeting rooms can brand the space with a flat-cut logo rather than printed graphics that date.
- For a Leigh salon or studio on a modest budget, matte black acrylic on a pale wall gives a designed look without fabrication costs.
- Ground-floor shops in Leigh can mount 10 mm metal letters on stand-offs over a painted fascia, getting depth for less.
What flat-cut letters cost in Leigh
Budgeting for flat-cut letters? The guide below runs from £18 to £65 per letter. VAT is extra. Size, materials and access decide where your job lands, and we confirm it in writing after surveying or checking the artwork.
| 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 Leigh?
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.
