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.
Practical reasons to consider halo-lit letters in Reigate
- Where a Reigate building has pale stone or smooth render, halo lighting shows off the wall rather than hiding it.
- Next to bright lightboxes on a Reigate parade, a soft halo stands apart by being gentler rather than brighter.
- Offices on a Reigate business park can use halo-lit names on pale cladding to guide winter-evening visitors to reception.
What halo-lit letters cost in Reigate
Pricing for halo-lit letters is worked out job by job, but the guide range is £160 to £420 per letter + VAT. The table lists typical options. Your figure is confirmed only after a site survey or a check of the artwork you send.
| Item | Guide, ex VAT | Inc. VAT (20%) |
|---|---|---|
| Halo-lit letter, 300–600 mm | £160 – £420 | £192 – £504 |
| Typical business name (10–14 letters) | £2,800 – £9,800 | £3,360 – £11,760 |
| Final electrical connection by an electrician | £150 – £350 | £180 – £420 |
Metal and finish matter most: brass, bronze and mirror cost more than painted or brushed. Face-and-halo letters, backing panels, stone drilling and access equipment add to the total.

Consent for illuminated signs in Reigate
Plan for express consent. In England most internally illuminated and halo-lit signs on a fascia or projecting bracket need it, and deemed consent does not cover illuminated signs in conservation areas, National Parks, National Landscapes, the Broads or areas of special control. The council usually decides within 8 weeks, and consent normally lasts 5 years. Expect questions about brightness: many councils refer to ILP guidance PLG05, which sets maximum luminance by zone, and they expect steady light rather than flashing. We prepare scaled drawings and photo mock-ups for the application, or submit it for you, and an electrician completes the connection to BS 7671 and gives you the certificate.
