Illuminated projecting signs in Yarm

Typically within a few weeks, depending on what has to be made. Printed and cut graphics are typically produced sooner than fabricated letters, trays or illuminated signs, which need more fabrication time. If the job needs advertisement consent, fitting waits for the council's decision. We confirm an expected date for Yarm once materials are ordered.

Sometimes. If the bracket is sound, well placed and strong enough, reusing it saves cost and avoids fresh holes. Rust at the wall plate, cracked masonry, missing fixings or no route for a cable usually mean a new bracket is safer.

Yes: £695–£2,250 per sign + VAT is our guide range. It is not a fixed quote, because no two jobs are the same size or on the same surface. The area covered, materials, the number of letters or panels, removal of anything old and access all change the figure, which we confirm after seeing the site or artwork.

The work on site is done by installers working under our contract, and anything that needs making is produced by specialist fabricators. You deal with Smart Signs throughout: we take the enquiry, survey, prepare the design and quote, check consent and coordinate the fitting, so there is one point of contact from first message to handover.

There's no single UK figure. It depends on pavement width, clear height, the council's shopfront guidance and the highway authority's view. Lit projecting signs are usually modest, stopping well short of the kerb, and the survey records the pavement width for the drawings.

Making and fitting typically takes 3–5 weeks after you approve the proof. Allow for advertisement consent first, usually up to 8 weeks for a decision, plus any highway licence, which runs on the authority's own timetable. Applications can be prepared in parallel.
