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.
Practical reasons to consider LED neon signs in South Shields
- Behind the counter of a South Shields bar, warm-white or pink LED neon adds atmosphere without any fragile glass tubes.
- Gyms and studios in South Shields can put bold neon words on training walls, where the low-voltage flex stays cool.
- For pop-ups across Tyne and Wear, plug-in neon moves easily from a South Shields venue to the next market, fair or event.
What LED neon signs cost in South Shields
Guide prices start from £245 and go up to £1,250 per sign, exclusive of VAT. The breakdown below shows where different sizes and options sit. Nothing is final until we have measured up or checked your artwork and sent a written quote.
| Item | Guide, ex VAT | Inc. VAT (20%) |
|---|---|---|
| LED neon sign up to 600 mm | £245 – £495 | £294 – £594 |

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 South Shields: 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.
