New shop, new owner or a tired old fascia in Bath? We survey your frontage, send a to-scale mock-up, and make and fit the sign from our Chippenham workshop, about 12 miles south-west of Bath.
Bath’s listed streets and conservation areas mean shop signs often need a traditional, sympathetic look. We create painted-effect and heritage-style signs as well as bold modern graphics, and we letter vans for trades working across the city.
Signs and consent in Bath
Advertisement consent in Bath is handled by Bath & North East Somerset Council. Many simple, non-illuminated fascia signs don’t need an application, but illuminated signs often do, and much of Bath’s historic centre is a conservation area with listed buildings, where the rules are tighter and the style of the sign matters more. We can supply scale drawings for an application. Read our guide to shop sign planning permission for the detail.
What affects the price
Every job is quoted individually. These are the things that make the difference:
- The size of the sign and the number of signs
- The material: aluminium composite, foamex, acrylic or timber
- Flat printed graphics or built-up and flat-cut 3D letters
- Fixing height and access: ladders, a tower or a cherry picker
- Drawings for an advertisement consent application, if your council needs one
- Travel to fit, or collection from our workshop
