Wall graphics are large printed images, patterns or lettering applied to walls as self-adhesive vinyl or printed wallpaper, to brand a space, guide visitors or turn a plain wall into a feature.

Wall graphics and murals in the West Midlands: 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.

Wall graphics and murals in the West Midlands: questions

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

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.

How soon after I approve the proof can the work on wall graphics and murals 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 Birmingham once materials are ordered.

Will someone visit my premises in Birmingham before quoting?

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.

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.

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.

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.
