How do you clean wall graphics?

Wipe them with a soft, damp cloth and mild detergent, then dry. Avoid abrasive pads, solvent cleaners and scrubbing at edges. Laminated vinyl handles regular cleaning well, which is why it suits busy corridors, gyms and schools; wallpaper murals need a gentler touch.

Can wall graphics go on an outside wall?

Sometimes, but it's a different job. Outside walls need weather- and UV-resistant materials, and a branded graphic counts as an advertisement, so consent may be needed; we check first. A printed panel fixed to the wall often outlasts vinyl on rough masonry.

Do you work across Berkshire or only in Reading?

Across all of Berkshire, and the rest of the UK too. Reading is simply one of the places we list, and enquiries from anywhere nearby follow exactly the same steps: photos or a survey, a scaled proof, a written price, then making and fitting once you sign off the design.

What can delay wall graphics and murals in Reading?

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.

Will the location in Reading affect the cost of wall graphics and murals?

Location is one factor among several, alongside size, material, access equipment and design time. Our guide range is £38–£82 per m² + VAT; any travel, parking or access costs for your site in Reading are included in the written quote we confirm after a survey or artwork check, so you can see them before you commit.

Can you make a mural from our photos?

Often, if the files are large enough. A wall is a big print, so each photo is checked at full size and we tell you how it will look. Low-resolution images can be swapped for stock photography or drawn artwork, and you see a scaled proof first.

Wall graphics and murals in Berkshire: permission and rules

Graphics on interior walls usually fall outside advertisement control, so planning consent is rarely the question indoors. The checks are fire performance in escape routes, your lease, and listed status: listed building consent covers interiors too, so ask the council before fixing to historic surfaces. A branded graphic on an outside wall is normally treated as an advertisement; in England it falls under the 2007 regulations, and large graphics may need express consent. Wales, Scotland and Northern Ireland have their own rules. If consent is needed, we can prepare the drawings and photos or submit the application for you.
