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.
The case for illuminated built-up letters in Bangor
- Among the fascias of a busy Bangor street, evenly glowing letters stand out without needing a larger sign.
- Corner units in Bangor can carry matching lit letters on both elevations, wired back to a single time switch.
- Conservation areas cover parts of many towns, so for a Bangor frontage we check face-lit letters are realistic first.
What illuminated built-up letters cost in Bangor
Budgeting for illuminated built-up letters? The guide below runs from £140 to £360 per letter. VAT is extra. Size, materials and access decide where your job lands, and we confirm it in writing after surveying or checking the artwork.
| Item | Guide, ex VAT | Inc. VAT (20%) |
|---|---|---|
| Face-lit letter, 300–600 mm | £140 – £360 | £168 – £432 |

Consent for illuminated signs in Bangor
Wales has its own advertisement regulations, and a lit sign is the case where they matter most. Internally illuminated, halo-lit and lit projecting signs typically need express consent, and on listed buildings or in conservation areas the council is likely to look closely at size, light levels and fixings. Keep illumination static and moderate; PLG05 from the Institution of Lighting Professionals is the usual reference. LED modules and drivers run at low voltage, but the mains connection still needs an electrician working to BS 7671. We check before you commit and can prepare or submit the consent application.
