Fleet livery in Putney

Smart Signs works with businesses all over the UK, and Putney is no exception. If you have fleet livery on your list, we can take it from a survey or photo check through to a design drawn to scale, a fixed price and fitting by installers we contract. A single team looks after your enquiry from the first message right through to handover.

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.

Practical reasons to consider fleet livery in Putney

  • Facilities, cleaning and maintenance firms with contracts in and around Putney benefit from vehicles that look like one team, whoever is driving.
  • Vehicles going back to lease companies from a Putney depot need graphics removed cleanly, so planning de-fleet removal early avoids surprises.
  • Adding a new van to a Putney operation is simpler when the master template already exists, because it's printed and fitted to match the rest.

Rules for vehicle graphics in Putney

Advertisement consent does not usually come into vehicle graphics. Advertisements on a vehicle normally used as a moving vehicle are outside advertisement control in England, although a vehicle parked up mainly to act as a billboard is treated differently. The rules that matter are road and registration ones. If a wrap changes the main colour, update the V5C log book with DVLA and tell your insurer. The windscreen must let through at least 75% of light and the front side windows at least 70% under the Road Vehicles (Construction and Use) Regulations 1986, so we keep graphics off them. Leased vehicles: check the lease allows graphics.

Covering Putney and Greater London

Coverage is nationwide, which means Putney 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. The Putney postcode districts we quote for include SW15, SW18, SW6 and SW13. From central London, Putney is roughly 5.1 miles to the south-west.

Fleet livery in Putney: questions

What is the price of fleet livery for a business in Putney?

Guide pricing runs from £225 to £1,650 per vehicle, plus VAT. The main things that move it are dimensions, the material and finish, illumination where relevant, how high the work is and whether a scaffold or platform is needed. Your written quote, issued after a survey or a check of your artwork, replaces the guide figure.

Who carries out the work on fleet livery in Putney?

The work on site is done by installers working under our contract, and anything that needs making is produced by specialist fabricators. You deal with Smart Signs throughout: we take the enquiry, survey, prepare the design and quote, check consent and coordinate the fitting, so there is one point of contact from first message to handover.

How long does a fleet roll-out take?

It depends on the number of vehicles, the coverage and how many you can release at once. Templates and proofs typically take 2–4 weeks, then vehicles are fitted in agreed batches. A lettering-led livery moves faster than part wraps, and many fleets phase the work over several months so no more than a few vehicles are off the road at a time.

Do trucks and trailers need different materials?

Often, yes. Box bodies and flat-sided trailers take printed vinyl much like vans, though rivets and corrugated panels need extra care. Curtain-sided trailers usually need graphics printed onto the curtain itself or a flexible film, because the curtain moves and folds. Send photos and we'll suggest an approach for each body type.

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 typical lead time for fleet livery in Putney?

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.
