Number of colors we need to match (you can provide examples or we try our best to match)

If you want effects on fonts (such as shadows or outlines).

If we are painting directly on a wall, then we need to know the wall surface (i.e. smooth drywall or rough stucco). We may have to visit the location to determine "how rough" unless you can provide detailed photos.

Yes, we actually prefer to work within budgets, especially if we are designing. So if someone wants to spend $300 versus someone who wants to spend $1,000,000 we can design accordingly, although it should be noted that every sign typically has a base price starting at the simplest design possible.

You can bring visual references to us in person or email us digital files of designs or styles you like. Patience is very important as the back and forth design process can take time. We will do all we can to encourage you to describe to us exactly what you want your artwork to look like so we can try to achieve your potential vision to the best of our ability.

Any signage that is not direct to object (such as a vehicle or wall) is typically painted on and constructed from MDO.
MDO is a plywood made for outdoor use sign-boards bound with marine grade adhesives and epoxy-sealed paper faces. The edges are sealed if the plywood is cut.
We can also paint on almost anything you want, from walls to trucks to nearly any inanimate object you might think of.

Depending on how full our schedule is, typically around 3-4 weeks. We are usually booked anywhere from 2-5 weeks in advance, then actual sign production for most signs takes roughly a week. If you need a sign sooner, please ask and we may be able to move our schedule around, although this sometimes will require a rush fee.
