Fascia signs Greater Manchester

Lettering that sits inside the fascia line usually looks better and causes fewer consent problems for shops in Greater Manchester and across the North West. We send artwork proofs for sign-off, so owners in the North West can check wording and colour before a Greater Manchester sign goes into production.

Common questions

Do you cover all of Greater Manchester?

Yes. ShopFronts UK works across Greater Manchester, including Altrincham, Ashton-under-Lyne, Bolton, Bury.

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.

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.

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.
