Wall graphics and murals in Dunbar: 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.

Covering Dunbar and Edinburgh and the Lothians

Coverage is nationwide, which means Dunbar and the surrounding parts of Edinburgh and the Lothians are included as standard. Anything fixed to a building normally needs someone on site to measure and check fixings and access; simpler graphics can usually be quoted from images you send. In postcode terms, Dunbar jobs typically fall in EH42. From Edinburgh, Dunbar is roughly 27 miles to the east.

Wall graphics and murals in Dunbar: questions

How much should I budget for wall graphics and murals in Dunbar?

As a guide, £38–£82 per m² + 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.

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.

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.

Do you cover smaller places near Dunbar as well?

Yes. Our coverage is not limited to Dunbar itself: nearby towns, industrial estates and business parks across Edinburgh and the Lothians are included too. The process does not change with the postcode. Send photos and approximate sizes, and we will tell you whether a site visit is needed before we can give you a fixed price.

Are wall graphics suitable for gyms?

Yes, with the right material. Laminated vinyl copes with sweat, wiping and knocks from equipment. In changing rooms keep graphics away from showers and areas that are regularly soaked, where edges will lift, and make sure humid spaces are well ventilated.

How long does it take to get wall graphics and murals in Dunbar?

It typically takes a few weeks from first enquiry, with much of that time falling after you approve the proof, while the work is made and scheduled. Graphics and vehicle jobs are typically shorter than fabricated or illuminated signs. If advertisement consent is needed, the council's decision comes first and adds to the overall timescale.
