Tray signs are fascia signs folded from aluminium sheet so the face turns back at the edges into returns, typically 50–75 mm deep, then powder coated and hung on concealed fixings.

Good reasons to look at tray signs in Feltham

  • If your Feltham premises might open into the evening one day, a light-ready tray avoids paying for a second sign later.
  • Shoppers walking along a Feltham pavement see a sign side-on first, and tray returns give it a solid edge from exactly that angle.
  • An estate agent in Feltham may change window displays weekly but keep the fascia for years, which is where a durable powder coat pays back.

Do you need permission for a sign in Feltham?

In England, a non-illuminated sign on your own business premises usually falls under deemed consent, which means no application is needed provided the sign stays within set limits. The lettering and symbols should be no more than 0.75 m tall (0.3 m in an area of special control), and the top of the sign should sit no higher than the bottom of any first-floor window. Conservation areas and listed buildings need more care: a sign on a listed building usually also needs listed building consent. We check the position for your premises before you commit, and we can prepare the drawings and photos for an application or submit it for you.

Tray signs in Feltham: questions

Do tray signs dent or scratch?

Powder-coated aluminium is tough, but a folded tray can dent if struck by a ladder or vehicle, and deep scratches expose bare metal. Touch-up paint is available in the RAL colour, though repairs are rarely invisible. On low fascias near loading areas, a higher fixing position helps.

Will the location in Feltham affect the cost of tray signs?

Location is one factor among several, alongside size, material, access equipment and design time. Our guide range is £1,250–£3,450 per sign + VAT; any travel, parking or access costs for your site in Feltham are included in the written quote we confirm after a survey or artwork check, so you can see them before you commit.

How do I get a quote for tray signs in Feltham?

Use the quote form, phone or WhatsApp and include a few photos, rough sizes and any logo files you have. We check the details, arrange a survey where one is needed, then send a fixed written price with a design drawn to scale. The quote is free, and nothing is made until you approve it.

How soon after I approve the proof can the work on tray signs happen?

Typically within a few weeks, depending on what has to be made. Printed and cut graphics are typically produced sooner than fabricated letters, trays or illuminated signs, which need more fabrication time. If the job needs advertisement consent, fitting waits for the council's decision. We confirm an expected date for Feltham once materials are ordered.

Can a tray sign cover an old fascia completely?

Yes, in most cases. A tray can be sized to the full fascia board with folded ends that wrap the corners, hiding the old timber. We still check the board is sound and fix through to solid structure, because hidden rot can loosen fixings over time.

Do tray signs suit office buildings and business parks?

Yes. Trays suit entrances, canopies and plain cladding as well as shop fascias, and can be fixed to brick, render or cladding rails. For cladding we confirm the fixing method with the building owner first, since drilling some panel systems can affect how they perform.
