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.

- A clinic, showroom or office in Bootle or across Merseyside can match its online brand with lit letters.

What illuminated built-up letters cost in Bootle
Pricing for illuminated built-up letters is worked out job by job, but the guide range is £140 to £360 per letter + VAT. The table lists typical options. Your figure is confirmed only after a site survey or a check of the artwork you send.

Consent for illuminated signs in Bootle
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.
