A totem sign is a free-standing sign on its own foundation, typically 1.5–4 m tall, used at site entrances and car parks to show a business name, tenants or directions where a wall sign won't be seen.
Good reasons to look at totem and pylon signs in Crieff
- Retail units sharing a Crieff car park can use one multi-tenant pylon instead of a cluster of boards competing for attention.
- If your Crieff site entrance is close to a busy junction, keeping the totem outside the visibility splay matters as much as its looks.
- Schools, surgeries and community buildings in Crieff can use smaller totems at the gate to show names, opening hours and the way in.
What totem and pylon signs cost in Crieff
The figures in this table are guide prices, from £1,950 to £9,800 per totem, and they exclude VAT. They are there to help you plan. A firm price follows the survey or artwork check and is agreed before any work starts.
| Item | Guide, ex VAT | Inc. VAT (20%) |
|---|---|---|
| Totem 1.5–2 m, non-lit | £1,950 – £3,950 | £2,340 – £4,740 |

Height and face area drive the structure, foundation and wind-loading design, so they move the price most. Lighting, tenant panels, built-up letters, surfacing to break out and reinstate, ground conditions and consent drawings follow. Every figure is confirmed after a site survey and services check.

Totem and pylon signs in Crieff: permission and rules
A free-standing totem usually needs express advertisement consent from the council's planning department, especially if it is illuminated, tall or close to a road. In England, decisions usually take up to 8 weeks and consent is normally granted for 5 years. Illuminated totems cannot rely on deemed consent in conservation areas, National Parks, National Landscapes, the Broads or areas of special control. Councils also look at highway safety, so a site plan showing sightlines helps. Wales, Scotland and Northern Ireland have their own advertisement regulations and application routes. We can prepare the drawings, site plan and photos for an application, or submit it for you.
