How do I get a quote for projecting and hanging signs in Egham?

Use the quote form, phone or WhatsApp and include a few photos, rough sizes and any logo files you have. We check the details, arrange a survey where one is needed, then send a fixed written price with a design drawn to scale. The quote is free, and nothing is made until you approve it.

Can a projecting sign be illuminated?

Yes, but it becomes a different product with its own consent position. Lit projecting signs use LED modules inside a box or behind halo letters, connected by an electrician, and most need express consent. A small spotlight lighting a painted sign is an alternative, still checked with the council.

Is there a guide price for projecting and hanging signs in Egham?

Yes: £395–£1,350 per sign + VAT is our guide range. It is not a fixed quote, because no two jobs are the same size or on the same surface. The area covered, materials, the number of letters or panels, removal of anything old and access all change the figure, which we confirm after seeing the site or artwork.

Do I need a licence from the highway authority?

Possibly. A sign projecting over a public pavement may need a licence from the highway authority, which is separate from advertisement consent from the planning department. We can check the requirement for your street and prepare the drawings and photos the application needs.

What is the typical timescale for projecting and hanging signs from enquiry to fitting?

A quote typically follows once we have your photos or have surveyed the site, and making and fitting is typically booked a few weeks after you approve the proof. Where advertisement consent applies, that decision has to come through before anything goes up, which can add several weeks. We give you an expected timescale with your quote for Egham.

Will a hanging sign swing or squeak?

A sign hung from hooks or chains will move in the wind, which is part of the traditional look. Nylon or brass bushes on the hooks reduce squeaking and wear. On an exposed corner, a fixed blade sign mounted rigidly to the bracket won't swing at all.

Projecting and hanging signs in Egham

A projecting sign is a sign, usually double-sided, fixed at right angles to a building on a wall bracket, so it can be read by people approaching along the street from either direction.

The case for projecting and hanging signs in Egham

Corner units in Egham gain twice, because a projecting sign on the corner catches people coming from both streets.
Visitors browsing Egham on foot look along a street rather than at each shopfront in turn, which is exactly the view a projecting sign serves.
Inside a conservation area, a painted timber-style sign in muted colours is usually the easier design to agree for an Egham frontage.

What projecting and hanging signs cost in Egham

How much? Expect a guide range of £395–£1,350 per sign, 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.

Projecting & hanging signs in Egham: guide prices, supplied and fitted
Item	Guide, ex VAT	Inc. VAT (20%)
Double-sided panel sign with standard bracket	£395 – £850	£474 – £1,020
Shaped or painted sign with decorative bracket	£650 – £1,350	£780 – £1,620

Size and shape come first, then the bracket: a scroll bracket costs more than flat bar, and larger signs need stronger brackets and wall plates. Painted finishes, access height, the wall type and any drawings for a highway licence or advertisement consent also affect the figure.

Options for your Egham project

Double-sided panel sign

Print or vinyl on both faces of a composite or tray sign, on a standard bracket.

Shaped symbol sign

Cut to a cup, key or scissors outline, so it reads before the words do.

Do you need permission for a sign in Egham?

In England, a non-illuminated sign on your own business premises usually falls under deemed consent, which means no application is needed provided the sign stays within set limits. The lettering and symbols should be no more than 0.75 m tall (0.3 m in an area of special control), and the top of the sign should sit no higher than the bottom of any first-floor window. Conservation areas and listed buildings need more care: a sign on a listed building usually also needs listed building consent. We check the position for your premises before you commit, and we can prepare the drawings and photos for an application or submit it for you.
