Fascia signs in County Durham
A new fascia is often the first change a business makes to a County Durham unit, and it can go up without touching the glass.
We measure the fascia on your County Durham shop so the panel fits the board you actually have, not a stock size. Franchise owners and retail groups across the North East can send brand files, and we adapt the layout to the size of your County Durham fascia.

Common questions
Do you cover all of County Durham?
Yes. ShopFronts UK works across County Durham, including Bishop Auckland, Chester-le-Street, Consett, Darlington.
What size should my fascia sign be?
Size it to the existing fascia, in proportion to the building. A sign that runs beyond the fascia line or covers upper-floor features tends to look wrong and can cause consent problems. In England, deemed consent limits lettering to 0.75 m high on most business signs.
What should go on a fascia sign?
Put your business name first, then a short line on what you sell and perhaps a phone number. Fewer words read better from across the street or a passing car. Choose high contrast between letters and background, and leave space at each end.
Do I need permission for a fascia sign?
Not always. In England, many non-illuminated signs on business premises have deemed consent, within limits on size and height. Listed buildings can need listed building consent, and signs in conservation areas get closer attention. Rules differ in Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland, so tell us where you are.
