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.

The case for flat-cut letters in Felling

  • Small firms moving into a new Felling unit can start with flat-cut letters at reception, adding exterior signs once the lease is settled.
  • Inside a Felling clinic or practice, letters behind the reception desk tell visitors they are in the right place straight away.
  • Ground-floor shops in Felling can mount 10 mm metal letters on stand-offs over a painted fascia, getting depth for less.

Do you need permission for a sign in Felling?

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.

Flat-cut letters in Felling: questions

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.

Do you work across Tyne and Wear or only in Felling?

Across all of Tyne and Wear, and the rest of the UK too. Felling 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.

What makes flat-cut letters more or less expensive?

Size and quantity come first, then the material or film, any lighting, the height of the work and the equipment needed to reach it, and the state of the surface or old sign being replaced. Against that, the guide for a job in Felling is £18–£65 per letter + VAT, confirmed after a survey or artwork check.

Can you fix letters to a slatted timber or acoustic wall?

Yes. Letters are pinned or studded into the slats themselves, with the template used to line them up across the gaps so no fixing lands on empty space. Thin strokes may need a backing strip or a heavier font weight to span the slats securely.

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

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 small can flat-cut letters be?

Small letters can be cut, but very thin strokes become fragile and hard to fix securely. A strapline under a logo is usually better in vinyl or printed on a panel, with flat-cut kept for the main name and logo. We check stroke widths on your artwork first.
