Totem and pylon signs in Ilford

The site owner or managing agent usually does. Clean the panels a few times a year, check that inserts are secure and base bolts tight, and look for vehicle damage. Lit totems also need the LEDs, drivers and time switch checked, with electrical faults dealt with by an electrician.

Size and quantity come first, then the material or film, any lighting, the height of the work and the equipment needed to reach it, and the state of the surface or old sign being replaced. Against that, the guide for a job in Ilford is £1,950–£9,800 per totem + VAT, confirmed after a survey or artwork check.

It is. We work throughout the UK rather than in a single region, so Ilford 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.

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.

Councils usually ask for a location plan, a site plan showing the sign's position, and scaled elevations with dimensions, materials, colours and height above ground. For a lit totem, the illumination method and brightness are usually requested too. We can prepare these drawings and photos for you.

With slide-in or screw-fixed inserts, panel changes are straightforward, although taller totems still need safe access equipment. Many landlords control changes so the layout stays consistent. We can make replacement panels to the same template when a unit is relet.
