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 illuminated built-up letters can do for businesses in Melton Mowbray
- Conservation areas cover parts of many towns, so for a Melton Mowbray frontage we check face-lit letters are realistic first.
- Corner units in Melton Mowbray can carry matching lit letters on both elevations, wired back to a single time switch.
- With a photocell fitted, a Melton Mowbray sign switches itself on as daylight fades, even after staff have gone home.
What illuminated built-up letters cost in Melton Mowbray
The table shows guide prices for illuminated built-up letters, starting from £140 and reaching about £360 per letter. All figures exclude VAT. Your own price is confirmed after we have seen the site or the artwork, so treat these as a starting point.
| Item | Guide, ex VAT | Inc. VAT (20%) |
|---|---|---|
| Face-lit letter, 300–600 mm | £140 – £360 | £168 – £432 |

Consent for illuminated signs in Melton Mowbray
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.
