Is Greenford inside your coverage area for sign lighting and LED upgrades?

It is. We work throughout the UK rather than in a single region, so Greenford and every part of Greater London are included. Where a survey is needed we arrange a visit; for graphics jobs we can often quote from photos and measurements. Either way, you get a proof and a written price first.

Can you light a sign someone else made?

Yes. External lighting works with most fascias, tray signs and lettering. The survey checks the wall above can take the fixings, the sign's finish will light well and there's a practical route for power. Old lightboxes are assessed for an LED retrofit instead.

Is there a typical lead time for sign lighting and LED upgrades in Greenford?

Yes, though it varies with the job. The lead time typically runs from the day you approve the proof, not from the first enquiry, and is typically a few weeks. Survey visits, artwork changes and any consent application sit before that point, so getting photos, sizes and logo files to us early typically shortens the overall timescale.

Will the lights bother the flats above?

They shouldn't if chosen and aimed well. Downward-facing fittings with cut-off optics keep light on the sign and out of the windows above, warm white looks softer than cool white, and a time switch turns everything off at a sensible hour.

Can lighting be added to a rented shop?

Usually, with your landlord's written agreement, as most leases control fixings on the outside of the building. Advertisement consent may also be needed, and an electrician connects the lights to BS 7671. Fittings can be removed when the lease ends, and holes made good.

Does the price of sign lighting and LED upgrades in Greenford include VAT?

No. Our guide range of £295–£1,450 per fascia excludes VAT, which is added to the quote. The final figure depends on size, materials, access, removal of existing signage or graphics and the artwork needed, and we confirm it in writing after a survey or once we have checked your files.

Consent for illuminated signs in Greenford

Illuminated signs are treated more strictly than unlit ones in England. Deemed consent for illumination is limited, and it does not apply at all in conservation areas, National Parks, National Landscapes, the Broads or areas of special control, so most internally lit or halo-lit fascia and projecting signs need express consent from the council. Decisions usually take up to 8 weeks and consent is normally granted for 5 years. Councils commonly assess brightness against the Institution of Lighting Professionals' guidance PLG05, and lighting should be static. An electrician makes the final mains connection to BS 7671. We can prepare the drawings and photos for your application, or submit it for you.
