FAQs
1. How do I commission a sign/project?
We will need some information upfront to be able to provide you with a rough quote. Many factors will influence how much a sign costs so we need as much information as possible. Size, material, location, design and turnaround time are all factors which affect costs.
If you'd like us to design your sign: we'll need a mood board or Pinterest board of examples of style and colours you like. If you have a design then please send us this straight away. We can also adapt logos and branding for the sign such as adding a 3D or shadow.
2. What happens after I send all the info?
Once we have all the information we need, we'll put together a rough quote detailing the following costs: design, artwork prep, materials, painting fee, access, travel, admin/comms and (if necessary) licensing fees. We will also include our quote terms and conditions. The quote will be between £x and £y to account for any fluctuating costs. We try to reply to inquiries within 2-3 working days (sometimes it can be longer if we are on site as there's only two of us!)
3. What happens once I accept the rough quote?
Great! We look forward to working with you. We'll send over a deposit invoice for 40% of the lower estimate for the work and arrange to visit the site or talk on the phone for further details on the project. Please note we do not do site visits before our estimate has been approved. We are only able to book in specific dates to carry out the work when we have received a deposit.
4. When does the work start?
If you have provided the designs and the site is ready, we will give you a selection of dates for when we can carry out the work. Leading up to these dates we will send over mockups (if needed) for approval and arrange access equipment before we carry out the work. We have public liability insurance and are IPAF trained to build scaffold and work lifts. Please let us know if there is already access equipment on site as this can save time and money.
If you've asked us to design something for you, then we will schedule design time and send over first draft designs. All of our design projects include one round of changes with any other changes incurring additional fees. When these changes have been made and designs are approved we will make on site arrangements.
5. The work is complete, when do I pay?
We will issue an invoice for the remainder of the project as soon as it is completed and the final fee must be paid within 14 days. If you work for a larger company and this isn't possible, then processing and payment dates must be provided when the final invoice is issued.
6. Can I use your design for my branding and merchandise design?
Yes, but this requires separate licensing, so it must be made clear at the beginning of the process what the designs will be used for so that appropriate fees can be added to the total. Unless otherwise stated, our designs can only be used for signage.
