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.
Why choose halo-lit letters for a business in Whitefield?
- A restaurant or wine bar in Whitefield can light its name after dark without a glowing box, using halo letters.
- Older streets in Whitefield may sit within a conservation area, so we check the council's likely view before design starts.
- Offices on a Whitefield business park can use halo-lit names on pale cladding to guide winter-evening visitors to reception.
What halo-lit letters cost in Whitefield
Use these figures to budget: £160 to £420 per letter is the guide range, with VAT added on top. Each line in the table is indicative only, and your exact price is confirmed after a survey or once we have looked over the artwork.
| Item | Guide, ex VAT | Inc. VAT (20%) |
|---|---|---|
| Halo-lit letter, 300–600 mm | £160 – £420 | £192 – £504 |

Consent for illuminated signs in Whitefield
Illuminated signs are treated more strictly than unlit ones in England. Deemed consent for illumination is limited, and it does not apply at all in conservation areas, National Parks, National Landscapes, the Broads or areas of special control, so most internally lit or halo-lit fascia and projecting signs need express consent from the council. Decisions usually take up to 8 weeks and consent is normally granted for 5 years. Councils commonly assess brightness against the Institution of Lighting Professionals' guidance PLG05, and lighting should be static. An electrician makes the final mains connection to BS 7671. We can prepare the drawings and photos for your application, or submit it for you.
