FAQs
Do I need council consent for outdoor signage in Auckland?
It depends on size, illumination and placement. After a quick site review we’ll advise and can prepare drawings and applications where required.
How long will outdoor signs last?
With the right materials and coatings, exterior signs typically last 5–7+ years; illuminated cabinets and 3D letters often longer with routine maintenance.
What materials do you recommend?
Aluminium or ACM skins on aluminium/steel frames, stainless fixings, UV-resistant films/inks, and IP-rated LED systems for lit signage.
Can you refurbish or rebrand existing outdoor signage?
Yes — we can reskin panels, update lighting, replace faces and rebrand frames if the structure is sound.
