Shop signage and fascias across Kent
Businesses across Kent use us for shop signage and fascias because one team manages the design, the trades and the sign-off. We regularly quote in Ashford, Tunbridge Wells, Dartford.
Shop signage covers the fascia sign above the shopfront, projecting or hanging signs, built-up and illuminated letters, and window graphics.
Working in Kent
Most enquiries we get from Kent come from pharmacies and healthcare premises or salons, barbers and beauty clinics, and the survey is where we pick up the details that change the price.
Across the South East, market towns with conservation areas sit next to large retail parks, so shopfront design often needs to satisfy planners on the high street while retail park units follow the landlord's specification.
What does the work include?
- Built-up and illuminated letters
- Projecting and hanging signs
- Window vinyls and frosting
- Internal wayfinding
What approvals might you need in Kent?
In England, fit-out work that affects fire escape, structure, drainage or accessibility falls under the Building Regulations and is signed off by local authority or approved inspector building control. Shopfronts, extraction flues and illuminated signs are dealt with separately by the local planning authority.
- Conservation areas often restrict internally lit box signs.
- Signs over the pavement must have a safe clearance above the footway.
