Common questions

Do you cover all of Tyne and Wear?

Yes. ShopFronts UK works across Tyne and Wear, including Gateshead, Hebburn, Jarrow, Newcastle upon Tyne.

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.

Who is responsible if a loose sign falls?

Usually the business or landlord that owns or controls the sign, and your lease should say which. In England, the 2007 Regulations require sign structures to be kept in a condition that does not endanger the public. Keep people clear until it is secured.

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.
