Can sign lighting be dimmed?

Yes, if dimmable drivers or fittings are specified. Dimming lets the brightness be set on site to suit the street, which helps where a consent condition limits brightness or neighbours live close by. Fixed-output fittings can't be dimmed later without swapping drivers.

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

It is. We work throughout the UK rather than in a single region, so Leeds and every part of West Yorkshire 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.

What will an LED retrofit save?

It depends on the old tubes, the hours lit and your electricity rate, but LED modules draw much less power for the same face. There are no tubes, starters or ballasts to replace either. Ask for old and new wattages to compare.

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 you work to an opening date in Leeds?

Tell us the date when you enquire and we will say plainly whether it looks realistic. Timescales typically depend on how soon the proof is approved, how long production takes and whether consent is needed, which can take several weeks on its own. We plan around your date where we can, but we do not promise one we cannot control.

Can I get a fixed price for sign lighting and LED upgrades in Leeds before committing?

Yes. We start from the guide range, £295 to £1,450 per fascia excluding VAT, then measure up or look at your photos and artwork. That gives a fixed written price reflecting the real size, materials, access and any design or consent work. You only commit once you accept that price and approve the proof.

Consent for illuminated signs in West Yorkshire

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.
