Do you cover smaller places near Cardiff as well?

Yes. Our coverage is not limited to Cardiff itself: nearby towns, industrial estates and business parks across South Glamorgan are included too. The process does not change with the postcode. Send photos and approximate sizes, and we will tell you whether a site visit is needed before we can give you a fixed price.

Can LED neon go in a shop window?

Yes, usually hung on wires or chains behind the glass, facing out. Daylight reduces its impact, so it shows most at dusk and after dark. If it's visible from the street, check whether advertisement consent is needed, and keep it static.

Does LED neon flicker or buzz?

Not with a decent driver. LED neon gives a steady light, without the hum ageing glass-neon transformers can make. If a sign starts flickering, a loose connector or failing driver is the usual cause, and both are simple to replace.

Can you copy handwriting?

Yes. A clear scan or photo is traced into a single-line path the flex can follow. Very fine loops and tight joins may be simplified slightly because of the flex's minimum bend radius, and the proof shows exactly how the line will look.

Could the consent process affect the timing of my job in Cardiff?

It can. Not every job needs an application, but where express consent is required the council's decision typically takes several weeks, and fitting typically waits until it is granted. We check this at the start, so the timetable you receive with your quote allows for consent where it applies, along with the proof approval stage.

What makes LED neon signs more or less expensive?

Size and quantity come first, then the material or film, any lighting, the height of the work and the equipment needed to reach it, and the state of the surface or old sign being replaced. Against that, the guide for a job in Cardiff is £245–£1,250 per sign + VAT, confirmed after a survey or artwork check.

LED neon signs in South Glamorgan: 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.
