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.
What you gain from illuminated built-up letters in Radcliffe
- Winter darkness arrives by late afternoon, so face-lit letters keep a Radcliffe shopfront readable to people heading home.
- Among the fascias of a busy Radcliffe street, evenly glowing letters stand out without needing a larger sign.
- For a Radcliffe takeaway, gym or bar open into the evening, a lit name turns glances into visits.
What illuminated built-up letters cost in Radcliffe
How much? Expect a guide range of £140–£360 per letter, VAT excluded. The rows below show what moves a job up or down that range, and the figure becomes firm once the survey or artwork check is done.
| Item | Guide, ex VAT | Inc. VAT (20%) |
|---|---|---|
| Face-lit letter, 300–600 mm | £140 – £360 | £168 – £432 |
| Typical business name (10–14 letters) | £2,400 – £8,900 | £2,880 – £10,680 |
| Final electrical connection by an electrician | £150 – £350 | £180 – £420 |
Height and letter count drive most of the cost; stainless returns and trimless faces add more, as do access equipment, old-sign removal and consent drawings.

Consent for illuminated signs in Radcliffe
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.
