Fascia Signs in Hull
Shop Front and Building Fascia Signage, Made and Installed In-House
MW Graphics designs, manufactures and installs fascia signs for shops, commercial buildings and industrial premises across Hull, East Yorkshire and the UK. A fascia sign is the main sign above your entrance, the first thing customers see and the piece of signage that works hardest for your business, so it needs to be designed for the building, made properly and fitted straight.
Every fascia is produced at our Burstwick workshop and installed by our own IPAF and PASMA certified teams, so one company handles your shop front from survey to the finished sign.
Types of Fascia Sign
The right fascia depends on the building, the budget and the look you're after:
Aluminium tray fascias
A folded aluminium tray with returned edges, giving a clean, rigid, seamless face across the frontage. The standard choice for a sharp, long-lasting commercial fascia, powder-coated or finished in your brand colours, with or without illumination.
Flat panel fascias
Printed or vinyl-applied graphics on rigid panel, a cost-effective option for straightforward frontages and shorter-term branding. Printed panels are produced on our own large-format printers using films from manufacturers including 3M and Avery Dennison.
Illuminated fascias
Trays and panels with integrated LED illumination, or paired with illuminated built up letters for depth and presence after dark. Illumination keeps your premises visible through winter trading hours with low running costs.
Designed for Your Building, Not Just Your Logo
A fascia has to balance brand consistency with legibility from the street. We work to your brand guidelines and produce visualisations against a photograph of your actual building, so you can see exactly how the sign sits on the frontage, how it reads from across the road, and how it relates to neighbouring premises before anything is made.
That's also the stage where we check the practical details that catch people out: fixing points, access for installation, and whether the sign needs advertisement consent from the local planning authority.
Built for Years of Weather
Fascia signs face sun, rain and wind every day of their working life. We build for that, with powder-coated aluminium, UV-stable printed graphics and fixings specified for the substrate, so the sign looks right in year five, not just at handover.
Surveyed, Made and Fitted by One Team
Every fascia project starts with a site survey covering measurements, substrate, fixings, access and sight lines. The sign is then fabricated at our Burstwick workshop and installed by our own IPAF and PASMA certified teams, with the access equipment for safe work at height on shopfronts and building frontages.
For multi-site operators, we produce and roll out fascia signage to a consistent standard across every location, from a single shop to a national estate.
Fascia Signs FAQs
A fascia sign is the main signage panel mounted on the flat surface above a business's entrance, usually spanning the width of the frontage and carrying the business name, logo and brand colours. It's the primary sign customers use to identify your premises from the street.
It depends on the sign. Many non-illuminated fascia signs fall under deemed consent, meaning no application is needed provided the sign meets size and placement criteria. Illuminated signs usually need advertisement consent from the local planning authority, and stricter rules apply in conservation areas and on listed buildings. We flag whether consent is likely to be needed at survey stage, and recommend confirming with your local authority before committing.
The most common construction is a folded aluminium tray, powder-coated in your brand colours, with printed or vinyl graphics or built up lettering applied. Flat rigid panels with printed graphics are a cost-effective alternative. We manufacture in-house and advise on the right build for your building and budget at survey stage.
