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 Wallsend
- Among the fascias of a busy Wallsend street, evenly glowing letters stand out without needing a larger sign.
- Corner units in Wallsend can carry matching lit letters on both elevations, wired back to a single time switch.

What illuminated built-up letters cost in Wallsend
Below is the guide pricing we use for illuminated built-up letters: from £140 up to £360 per letter, before VAT. These are not fixed quotes. A written price follows once measurements are taken and your artwork has been checked.
| Item | Guide, ex VAT | Inc. VAT (20%) |
|---|---|---|
| Face-lit letter, 300–600 mm | £140 – £360 | £168 – £432 |

Consent for illuminated signs in Wallsend
Plan for express consent. In England most internally illuminated and halo-lit signs on a fascia or projecting bracket need it, and deemed consent does not cover illuminated signs in conservation areas, National Parks, National Landscapes, the Broads or areas of special control. The council usually decides within 8 weeks, and consent normally lasts 5 years. Expect questions about brightness: many councils refer to ILP guidance PLG05, which sets maximum luminance by zone, and they expect steady light rather than flashing. We prepare scaled drawings and photo mock-ups for the application, or submit it for you, and an electrician completes the connection to BS 7671 and gives you the certificate.
