Sign lighting is external or retrofitted lighting that makes an existing sign readable after dark: LED trough lights, swan-neck spotlights or wall washers, or LED modules replacing old lightbox tubes.
Points in favour of sign lighting and LED upgrades in Falmouth
- For a Falmouth business watching its budget, lighting the existing sign is a sensible first step into evening trade.
- An old fluorescent lightbox on a Falmouth parade can be converted to LED, cutting running costs and tube changes.
- Where flats sit above shops in Falmouth, downward-aimed, shielded fittings keep light on the sign and out of windows.
What sign lighting and LED upgrades cost in Falmouth
How much? Expect a guide range of £295–£1,450 per fascia, 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%) |
|---|---|---|
| LED trough light, up to 3 m | £295 – £750 | £354 – £900 |
| Spotlights (set of 3–4) | £345 – £895 | £414 – £1,074 |
| LED retrofit of an old fluorescent lightbox | £295 – £1,450 | £354 – £1,740 |
Fascia length and fitting count drive the price, with access height, the cable route and a timer or photocell added where needed. Glass-neon conversions and very large boxes are quoted individually.

Consent for illuminated signs in Falmouth
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.
Covering Falmouth and Cornwall
From the middle of Falmouth to the edges of Cornwall, the same survey, proof and fit process applies. If the job calls for someone on site, a visit is booked; if not, we price from photos, measurements and your artwork, then confirm the details once the artwork is checked. Addresses in TR11 and TR10 are all within our Falmouth coverage. Roughly 7.7 miles separate Falmouth from Truro, which lies to the north.
Surveys and fitting in and around Falmouth are arranged case by case, and any travel costs are itemised on your quote.
