An LED neon sign is a logo or lettering formed from flexible LED tube that imitates glass neon, running at 12 or 24 volts and usually mounted on an acrylic backboard.
The case for LED neon signs in Durham
- Gyms and studios in Durham can put bold neon words on training walls, where the low-voltage flex stays cool.
- A Durham restaurant with a covered terrace can use outdoor-rated neon, sealed against rain and hard-wired by an electrician.
- Keeping neon inside and static is usually the simpler route for a Durham shop within a conservation area.
What LED neon signs cost in Durham
Budgeting for LED neon signs? The guide below runs from £245 to £1,250 per sign. VAT is extra. Size, materials and access decide where your job lands, and we confirm it in writing after surveying or checking the artwork.
| Item | Guide, ex VAT | Inc. VAT (20%) |
|---|---|---|
| LED neon sign up to 600 mm | £245 – £495 | £294 – £594 |
| LED neon sign 600 mm–1.2 m | £450 – £1,250 | £540 – £1,500 |
| Outdoor-rated version | £150 – £450 | £180 – £540 |
Total flex length drives the price, so dense script costs more than short words. Extra colours, shaped backboards, dimmers or RGB control and hard-wired fitting add to it; larger signs are quoted individually.

LED neon signs in Durham: permission and rules
A neon sign on an inside wall, away from the windows, is usually outside advertisement control. Once it's visible from the street, on a fascia, canopy or just behind the glass, it can count as an illuminated advertisement. In England, lit signs get only limited deemed consent, and none in conservation areas, National Parks, National Landscapes, the Broads or areas of special control; an express consent decision usually takes up to 8 weeks. Keep street-facing signs static. Wales, Scotland and Northern Ireland have their own regulations. We can prepare the drawings and photos for an application, or submit it for you.
