Fleet livery is a consistent set of vehicle graphics, produced from master templates for each vehicle model, so every van, car, truck or trailer a business runs carries the same branding in the same position.

Why choose fleet livery for a business in Battersea?

  • When several of your vans park at one Battersea site, matching livery makes the job look organised to the client and to passers-by.
  • For contractors on housing, council or utility jobs in Battersea, consistent livery helps residents recognise who is genuinely meant to be on site.
  • Vehicles going back to lease companies from a Battersea depot need graphics removed cleanly, so planning de-fleet removal early avoids surprises.

Rules for vehicle graphics in Battersea

Think road rules rather than planning rules. In England a vehicle normally used for driving is outside advertisement control, although parking one somewhere chiefly as a billboard can bring it back within the council's remit. Three checks matter more. Tell DVLA, via the V5C, and your insurer if the main colour changes. Keep the windscreen at 75% light transmission or better and the front side windows at 70% or better, as the 1986 Construction and Use Regulations require. And for lease vehicles, read the agreement for what it says about graphics and removal. We plan every layout around all three.

Covering Battersea and Greater London

Coverage is nationwide, which means Battersea and the surrounding parts of Greater London are included as standard. Anything fixed to a building normally needs someone on site to measure and check fixings and access; simpler graphics can usually be quoted from images you send. Postcode districts around Battersea include SW11, SW8, SW3 and SW1V. Roughly 2.6 miles separate Battersea from central London, which lies to the north-east.

Fleet livery in Battersea: questions

Can cars and vans in one fleet carry different levels of graphics?

Yes, and it's common. Pool cars might carry a logo and web address on the doors, vans a part wrap with services and phone number, and trucks larger side graphics. The colours, typefaces and logo placement stay consistent, so every vehicle still reads as the same business.

Is there a typical lead time for fleet livery in Battersea?

Yes, though it varies with the job. The lead time typically runs from the day you approve the proof, not from the first enquiry, and is typically a few weeks. Survey visits, artwork changes and any consent application sit before that point, so getting photos, sizes and logo files to us early typically shortens the overall timescale.

Do you work across Greater London or only in Battersea?

Across all of Greater London, and the rest of the UK too. Battersea 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.

Can you take over livery designed by someone else?

Yes. Send the original artwork if you have it, or straight-on photos of each vehicle type. We redraw the livery onto master templates, match colours as closely as the films allow, and flag anything that won't transfer well to a new model, such as graphics that would cross a different door line.

Should Chapter 8 chevrons be part of the livery?

If your vehicles stop or work on the highway and your contracts ask for them, yes. It's better to design the rear doors with the chevron area set aside than to add chevrons later over the branding. The livery then keeps the name and phone number clear of the markings, and the rear still carries your brand.

Is there a guide price for fleet livery in Battersea?

Yes: £225–£1,650 per vehicle + VAT is our guide range. It is not a fixed quote, because no two jobs are the same size or on the same surface. The area covered, materials, the number of letters or panels, removal of anything old and access all change the figure, which we confirm after seeing the site or artwork.
