A lightbox sign is a shallow enclosed box with a translucent face and LED lighting inside, so the whole panel, or just lettering routed into it, glows evenly at night.
The case for lightbox signs in Ellesmere Port
- Businesses with several sites across Cheshire can share one set of artwork, so the Ellesmere Port branch matches the rest.
- An Ellesmere Port takeaway trading mostly after dark keeps its name and number readable with a fully lit face.
- Taking over a franchise or a new lease in Ellesmere Port? A replacement face keeps the existing box and wiring.
What lightbox signs cost in Ellesmere Port
The table shows guide prices for lightbox signs, starting from £1,250 and reaching about £4,800 per lightbox. All figures exclude VAT. Your own price is confirmed after we have seen the site or the artwork, so treat these as a starting point.
| Item | Guide, ex VAT | Inc. VAT (20%) |
|---|---|---|
| Lightbox up to 3 m, printed face | £1,250 – £2,650 | £1,500 – £3,180 |

Consent for illuminated signs in Ellesmere Port
Lighting a sign changes the consent picture in England. Under the 2007 Advertisement Regulations, deemed consent for illuminated signs is narrow and is excluded in conservation areas, National Parks, National Landscapes, the Broads and areas of special control; in practice most lit fascia and projecting signs need express consent. Allow up to 8 weeks for a decision, with consent normally running for 5 years. Keep the light static and at sensible levels, with PLG05 the usual reference for brightness, and use a time switch or photocell to control the hours. We check before you commit, can handle the application drawings or the submission, and arrange an electrician for the BS 7671 connection.
