Common questions

Do you cover all of Greater Manchester?

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

Can a fluorescent lightbox be converted to LED?

Usually yes, by replacing the tubes and control gear with LED modules and a driver. The existing box and face stay in place. Check first whether the sign has consent as an illuminated sign, because brighter lighting can raise a consent question.

Do I need advertisement consent to repair my sign?

Usually not, if the repair keeps the same size, position and lighting. Changing the sign or adding illumination can need consent under the 2007 Regulations in England, especially in conservation areas, and the rules differ in Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland.

Can you replace only the letters that have failed?

Yes, in many cases a single built-up letter or LED module can be replaced. Older letters may be hard to match in colour and depth, particularly once the rest have faded. We will tell you if the new part is likely to stand out.
