Certain signage requires Vector artwork, while others can be either Vector or Bitmap artwork.

PRODUCTION & DELIVERY TIME

We do not stock custom signs “off the shelf”, they all have to be produced as requested to customers specifications.

If you wish to get a cost on a sign we will need some simple information first:


1. Your Logo or “What do you want the sign to say”?

2. Size of your sign?
3. What type of materials do you want your sign made from?
4. If Installation is required?

5. Timeframe required?

Cost is based upon materials and supplies, time in production and the time needed to install the project. On most small projects we get a quote back to you within 48 Hours.

Signage output is so vast and varied that the production and delivery time is individual and dependent on a number of factors, both internal and external.

Rush delivery is available at an additional

charge.

Please note that in the case of outdoor jobs,

weather is a significant factor, and one we

cannot control.
