Will someone visit my premises in Haverfordwest before quoting?

If the job needs it, yes. For signs fixed to a building, anything illuminated or work at height, we arrange a survey to measure, check the wall and plan access. For window graphics, lettering and many vehicle jobs, clear photos with measurements are often enough, and we only visit if something needs a closer look.

Why is there a price range for halo-lit letters rather than one figure?

Because jobs vary. The guide of £160 to £420 per letter + VAT spans small, simple work at one end and larger, more involved work at the other. Size, material, finish, access, design time and any consent drawings push the figure up or down. A survey or artwork check lets us fix the price for your job in Haverfordwest.

Could the consent process affect the timing of my job in Haverfordwest?

It can. Not every job needs an application, but where express consent is required the council's decision typically takes several weeks, and fitting typically waits until it is granted. We check this at the start, so the timetable you receive with your quote allows for consent where it applies, along with the proof approval stage.

How far off the wall do halo letters sit?

Usually 25–50 mm. Closer gives a tight, bright outline; further gives a softer, wider glow and makes the letters seem to float. Larger letters generally sit further out. The distance is set on the drawings and fine-tuned on the locators during fitting.

How do you look after halo letters?

Clean metal faces gently with a soft cloth and mild detergent a few times a year, avoiding abrasive pads on brushed or mirror finishes. Check the clear backs for trapped dirt or insects. If a halo dims or goes patchy, the driver is the usual suspect.

Can halo letters go on dark brick?

They can, but the halo will be faint because dark surfaces absorb light. The usual answer is a pale backing panel behind the letters, giving the glow a clean surface. Face-and-halo letters are another option, where the lit face does most of the work.

Halo-lit letters in Haverfordwest

Halo-lit letters are solid-faced fabricated letters with LEDs inside that shine backwards onto the wall, so each letter stands in silhouette against a soft outline of light.

Consent for illuminated signs in Haverfordwest

Adding light usually means adding an application. For an exterior illuminated sign in Wales, expect the council to want an express consent application in most cases; the 1992 Regulations (as amended) set the rules, and the council can confirm its timescales and conditions. Expect questions about how bright the sign is and when it is lit: steady light, a time switch or photocell, and luminance kept within the PLG05 guidance all help. We put together scaled drawings, photomontages and lighting details for you, or lodge the application ourselves if you prefer, and an electrician makes the final connection to BS 7671.
