Hexham, Northumberland
Illuminated signs in Hexham
Businesses trading late across Northumberland can use a photocell, so a Hexham sign comes on at dusk without staff having to remember.

Changing a sign later is simpler with a light box, so new businesses in Northumberland may prefer that route on a Hexham lease. We check where power can reach the fascia on your Hexham shop, because cable routes can shape the sign design.
Work in Hexham is run from Birmingham, roughly 168 miles away, with teams booked for the whole job so it is finished in one visit wherever possible. Jobs in NE46 are planned alongside Consett and Stanley.
What can we fit in Hexham?
What does it cost in Hexham?
Illuminated signs usually cost £795 to £3,495 ex VAT per sign, supplied and fitted. Letter count, size, lighting type and fixing height set the price, and built-up or halo-lit letters cost more than a printed light box. Power supply work, scaffold, removal of the old sign and any advertisement consent application can add to it. We confirm everything in a written quote.
Brand rollouts in Northumberland work better with one sign pattern, and we can adapt it to the fascia size at your Hexham branch. Tell us your opening hours when you book and we will plan the Hexham job around them, with overnight or weekend fitting where the work allows.
Common questions
Can you come out to Hexham for a survey?
Yes. New shopfronts and full refurbishments get a free survey in Hexham. Repairs are a charged visit, and we tell you the cost of the visit before anyone comes out.
What is a halo-lit sign?
A halo-lit sign has solid letters standing off the wall, with LEDs behind them throwing light onto the surface behind. The letters appear as silhouettes against a soft glow. It works well on a plain, pale fascia and is often more acceptable than fully lit box signs.
Do I need consent for an illuminated shop sign?
Often yes in England, under the Town and Country Planning (Control of Advertisements) (England) Regulations 2007, especially in conservation areas. Some signs have deemed consent within strict limits. Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland have their own rules. We can prepare drawings, and the council decides.
Do I need planning permission for a new shopfront in Hexham?
Usually yes, if the new front changes how the building looks. Like-for-like repairs usually don't. Your local planning authority decides, and we can prepare the drawings. Signs and external shutters have their own rules.
