Neon Sign - Frequently Asked Questions

How much do neon signs cost?

Simple signs cost about £300 +VAT, however as a guide a typical neon sign spend is somewhere between £500-800 +VAT depending on the number of characters, size, font and colour.

Are some neon colours more expensive?

Yes coloured glass costs a little bit more, 'Ruby Red' and 'Yellows'. However these are really stunning vibrant colours and are well worth the extra spend.

How fast can you make a neon sign?

Our normal lead time is 2-3 weeks but we often work miracles, so if you have an urgent deadline please get in touch.

Can my neon sign be fixed directly to the wall?

Yes, this requires a specialist installation and our team of fitters can assist with this, as the glass is very fragile it is not recommended that you try to do this yourself. However if the neon is backed on to acrylic or in an acrylic case then it is much easier to fit yourself, we'll fit the transformers on the the sign and provide a UK plug and cable.

What is the minimum height for a neon letter?

As a guide we generally say no smaller than 10cm, although in some cases we can go slightly smaller it just depends on the font.

Do I need a fireman's switch for my neon sign?

If your neon sign is going outdoors or in a public place or is not going to be fitted with a 13A UK plug then you will need a fireman's switch, we can assist you with this.

Can you fit my neon sign on to a living/green wall?

Yes we have done lots of living walls and we can even supply and fit the panels.

Which fonts can you use for a neon sign?

Sans-serif and script fonts always work the best. Serif fonts are not impossible but are trickier and more expensive.

Can my damaged neon sign be repaired?

If the glass is broken, even a hairline fracture then the tube would need to be completely remade. If the tubes are fine then a new transformer will do the job. However in most occurrences it is more economical to completely remake the sign from scratch.
