Van sign-writing in Hayes

More than you'd think, but less than you might want. A small van has room for a clear business name, a short services line and a large phone number on each side, plus the name and number on the rear doors. Squeezing in a long list of services makes everything smaller, so we'll suggest which words to keep.

Cut vinyl comes in a fixed range of colours, so we pick the closest match to your brand colours and show it on the proof. Where an exact match matters, the logo can be printed instead, because print can be tuned more finely. Screens show colours differently, so a printed sample is worth asking for.

Yes, as long as there are clear photos. Send straight-on pictures of each side and the rear doors, with something of known size in shot such as the number plate. We redraw the layout to suit the new van's panels, which is also a good moment to tidy up the wording or update the phone number.

If the job needs it, yes. For signs fixed to a building, anything illuminated or work at height, we arrange a survey to measure, check the wall and plan access. For window graphics, lettering and many vehicle jobs, clear photos with measurements are often enough, and we only visit if something needs a closer look.

As a guide, £245–£895 per van + VAT. Where your job falls in that range depends on size, materials, access height, whether old signage has to come off and how much design work is involved. We confirm a fixed price after a survey or artwork check, before anything is ordered.

The usual causes are artwork changes after the proof stage, waiting for consent, access arrangements such as a council licence for scaffolding on the pavement, and weather for outdoor fitting. Jobs typically run smoothly once the proof is approved and any consent is in place, but we do not promise dates that depend on things outside our control.
