Illuminated built-up letters are fabricated 3D letters with translucent opal acrylic faces and LED modules inside, so each face glows and your name reads clearly after dark.
Why choose illuminated built-up letters in Berkshire?
- For a Reading takeaway, gym or bar open into the evening, a lit name turns glances into visits.
- Corner units in Reading can carry matching lit letters on both elevations, wired back to a single time switch.
- Among the fascias of a busy Reading street, evenly glowing letters stand out without needing a larger sign.

Consent for illuminated signs in Berkshire
Lighting a sign changes the consent picture in England. Under the 2007 Advertisement Regulations, deemed consent for illuminated signs is narrow and is excluded in conservation areas, National Parks, National Landscapes, the Broads and areas of special control; in practice most lit fascia and projecting signs need express consent. Allow up to 8 weeks for a decision, with consent normally running for 5 years. Keep the light static and at sensible levels, with PLG05 the usual reference for brightness, and use a time switch or photocell to control the hours. We check before you commit, can handle the application drawings or the submission, and arrange an electrician for the BS 7671 connection.
