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.
Practical reasons to consider illuminated built-up letters in Sittingbourne
- Conservation areas cover parts of many towns, so for a Sittingbourne frontage we check face-lit letters are realistic first.
- Set back on a retail park outside Sittingbourne? Lit letters help drivers pick out the right unit after dark.
- A clinic, showroom or office in Sittingbourne or across Kent can match its online brand with lit letters.
What illuminated built-up letters cost in Sittingbourne
We publish guide prices so you can plan before you get in touch. For illuminated built-up letters the range is £140–£360 per letter, not including VAT, and the final price is confirmed after we survey the site or check the artwork.
| Item | Guide, ex VAT | Inc. VAT (20%) |
|---|---|---|
| Face-lit letter, 300–600 mm | £140 – £360 | £168 – £432 |

Consent for illuminated signs in Sittingbourne
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.
