Why choose us?

Our signs are made and painted by hand using traditional methods and craftsmanship for a quality, finish and 'character' impossible to reproduce through automated production methods.

We use only the finest tools & materials. We use traditional applications combined with modern paint systems for durability. Gilding is done by hand using 23ct. finest English gold leaf to ensure your sign looks stunning for years to come.

As we have no unnesessary overheads and don't use expensive industrial machinery or software, our prices may be cheaper than you think and can be extremely competitive when compared to alternatives such as vinyl.

Last but not least, with almost 40 years experience (he started his apprenticeship aged 15), John Farnham is one of the last and arguably most experienced traditional sign writers working in the UK today. If you want a beautiful sign made by a true craftsman that you will be proud of for years to come please contact us now to find out more.
