Estimating the Cost of a Sign

A sign can be one of the most important marketing aspects of your business. You may wonder what the cost is of putting up a sign. The first step is to determine what kind of sign you need. The costs for temporary signs such as banners can range between $50 and as much as over a hundred thousand dollars. An example of this would be animated computer signs at stadiums and similar locations.

Also keep in mind that restrictions can exist from your local HOA and city as to the type of sign that can be used. When you’re planning out your budget for a new business, be aware of any sign program to be followed in your lease. Channel Letter Signs would be most appropriate in mall locations and shopping areas. Size and letter quantity affects cost, but $2000 would likely be the minimum expense. This includes ten letters ranging in size between 18-24 inches, and 15% would be added to the cost for any reverse halo lighting and logos.

3D Letters can also be part of your sign along with PVC letters, and foam based letters. You can also look into other material options as needed. To install 10 letters on your building, the cost would come up to about $500 for 18-24 inch letters. Extra costs would be associated with custom fonts and logos.
