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.
Why choose lightbox signs for a business in Gelligaer?
- Taking over a franchise or a new lease in Gelligaer? A replacement face keeps the existing box and wiring.
- On a dimly lit Gelligaer side street, a lightbox brings its own light and helps customers find the door.
- Businesses with several sites across Gwent can share one set of artwork, so the Gelligaer branch matches the rest.
What lightbox signs cost in Gelligaer
How much? Expect a guide range of £1,250–£4,800 per lightbox, VAT excluded. The rows below show what moves a job up or down that range, and the figure becomes firm once the survey or artwork check is done.
| Item | Guide, ex VAT | Inc. VAT (20%) |
|---|---|---|
| Lightbox up to 3 m, printed face | £1,250 – £2,650 | £1,500 – £3,180 |
| Lightbox 3–5 m, routed and push-through letters | £2,450 – £4,800 | £2,940 – £5,760 |
| Replacement face for an existing lightbox | £295 – £950 | £354 – £1,140 |
Length and face type drive most of the price; shaped or double-sided boxes, old-cabinet removal, fascia repairs, access equipment and consent drawings add to it.

Consent for illuminated signs in Gelligaer
Adding light usually means adding an application. For an exterior illuminated sign in Wales, expect the council to want an express consent application in most cases; the 1992 Regulations (as amended) set the rules, and the council can confirm its timescales and conditions. Expect questions about how bright the sign is and when it is lit: steady light, a time switch or photocell, and luminance kept within the PLG05 guidance all help. We put together scaled drawings, photomontages and lighting details for you, or lodge the application ourselves if you prefer, and an electrician makes the final connection to BS 7671.
