What Are LED Neon Signs?
An LED neon sign is a modern sign that recreates the classic neon glow using flexible LED tubing mounted on a cut-to-shape acrylic backboard. It delivers the same bright, continuous light as old-style glass neon, but runs cooler, uses less power, and lasts much longer. Because the tubing is shaped to your exact text or logo, we make every sign to your design rather than picking from a shelf.
Types of Neon Signs We Make
Every sign is bespoke, but projects usually fall into a few categories:
- Business Logo Neon Signs: We recreate your company logo or name in LED neon for shopfronts, reception areas, bar branding, and feature walls. Popular with retailers, salons, barbershops, gyms, estate agents and offices that want their brand to stand out.
- Custom Text & Name Neon Signs: Any word, name, quote or lyric in the font and colour you choose. A favourite for bedrooms, children’s rooms, home bars and gifts, plus feature lettering in studios, offices and showrooms.
- Wedding & Event Neon Signs: Surname signs, “Mr & Mrs” designs, hashtags and photo-backdrop pieces for the big day. Widely used by event planners, wedding venues, photographers and hospitality teams, with stand hire and delivery available.
- Bar & Restaurant Neon Signs: Warm, eye-catching signage that sets the mood and reinforces your brand. Ideal for bars, pubs, restaurants, cafés, takeaways, coffee shops and nightclubs wanting a photo-worthy focal point.
- Outdoor Neon Signs: Weather-sealed signs rated IP65 for life outside, built for shop fronts, cafés, takeaways and other premises. Our fully insured team installs them safely and correctly.
Benefits of a Custom Neon Sign
A well-made neon sign does more than look good. Here is what it adds:
- Stronger brand presence: A glowing logo or name makes your business easy to spot and easy to remember.
- More attention and footfall: Bright signage draws the eye, day or night, helping you stand out from nearby shops.
- Free social media exposure: Customers photograph neon and share it, putting your brand in front of their followers.
- Low running costs: LED neon uses little power, so it costs very little to keep lit.
- Long service life: Hard-wearing materials mean your sign keeps performing for years with minimal upkeep.
- A design that is truly yours: Because it is made to order, no other business has the same sign.
How We Make Your Neon Sign
We keep the process simple and handle each stage ourselves.
- Get in touch: Tell us your idea, wording, rough size and where the sign will go. Send any artwork or a logo if you have one.
- Design and quote: We turn your idea into a design and send you a clear, no-obligation quote.
- Approve the artwork: You check the layout, colours and size, and we adjust it until it is right.
- In-house production: Once approved, we build your sign in our own workshop.
- Installation: Our fully insured install team fits the finished sign safely at your premises, or we prepare it ready for your event or home.
What Affects the Price of a Neon Sign?
Neon is made to order, so the price depends on your design rather than a fixed shelf price. The main factors are:
- Size: Larger signs use more tubing and materials.
- The amount of text: More words and longer phrases mean more work.
- Design complexity: Logos, icons and detailed script take more time than simple block text.
- Number of colours: Multi-colour designs can add to the cost.
- Backing and mounting: The board shape and how the sign is fixed can change the price.
- Timeframe: Tight deadlines may need faster production.

Frequently Asked Questions
Illuminated signs on commercial premises may need advertisement consent from the local council, and you may also need your landlord’s approval. Contact us with your location, and we will point you in the right direction before you commit.

Simple, rounded fonts light up cleanly, while very thin or detailed lettering can lose its clarity. Share your brand fonts or ideas, and we will recommend a style that glows well at your chosen size.
Dimming is usually possible, which is useful for bars, restaurants and event spaces where you want to set the mood. Mention it in your enquiry so we can include it in the design.
Yes. A neon sign in a window catches attention from the pavement, even outside opening hours. We will advise on the best size and position so it stays clearly visible.
Absolutely. Many businesses keep their fascia for the main shop identity and add neon as a feature piece inside or in the window. We can also supply fascia signs if you want both to match.
