Painted Wooden Signs
Our painted wood signs are highly sought after, combining traditional craftsmanship with modern design elements. We paint a variety of timbers, including Oak, Sapele, and Tricoya (a waterproof wood-based material), using a wide range of RAL colors and Farrow and Ball matches. These signs are ideal for double-sided hanging signs, wall-mounted displays, or entrance signs on posts.
While vinyl signage has dominated for years, traditional painted wooden signs are making a strong resurgence. Today’s painted signs offer significant improvements over their predecessors, thanks to the use of durable polyurethane paint mixed with a hardener before spraying. This ensures both long-lasting beauty and exceptional durability.

Engraved Memorial Plaques
When you think of engraved plaques, brass typically springs to mind. Although brass is an excellent choice for plaques and signs, it does necessitate regular polishing. At The Sign Maker, our engraving workshop features a diverse selection of materials for engraved plaques and signs. For example, Corian plaques, which resemble stone, are both maintenance-free and exceptionally durable. Additionally, we offer acrylic laminate in various colors, black aluminium, and eco-friendly PaperStone, all of which are suitable for outdoor applications.
You can count on us for engraved plaques that meet the highest quality standards.

Fibreglass Business Signs
Fibreglass signs are a great option for business signs, they are light, long-lasting and maintenance-free. All things you need when running a busy business! The sign boards can be manufactured to any RAL colour and then we can add either cut vinyl or printed vinyl to the sign board. Cut vinyl is the most long-lasting but we do laminate our printed vinyl to increase the longevity.
You can send in completed artwork or get our in-house designers to create a whole new sign design for your new business sign.

Aluminium Composite Signs
Aluminium composite from The Sign Maker is among the most sought-after materials for sign boards. It offers a sleek appearance, exceptional toughness, and durability, all while being lighter than solid aluminium plates. Our sign boards come in a variety of options, including solid colours, wood effects, metallic finishes, and full-colour graphics. You can also choose from oak frames or painted wooden frames to complement your signage.
Cast Metal Plaques and House Name Plates
Our durable cast house name plates and signs are typically made from classic brass and aluminium. We also produce cast signs using premium bronze and traditional cast iron. These cast metal signs are designed for longevity, as materials like bronze and aluminium resist rust and harsh weather, making them perfect for outdoor use. The casting process results in a three-dimensional effect with raised letters, logos, and designs, providing a high-quality, substantial appearance.
Cast metal signs are versatile and can be used for various purposes, including house signs, name plates, business logos, commemorative plaques, and historical markers.

House Numbers
Just because a sign is small does not mean it doesn’t need to be mighty. Here at The Sign Maker we believe a sign should be bespoke to your personality and the style of your home. Therefore, our house number signs may be one of the smallest signs we craft but we make sure to make up for the sign with plenty of personality. You have a huge range of materials to choose from as well as lots of images, fonts and letter colours. Provide our designer with a brief and see what imaginative signs we can craft for you.
Modern Hand Painted Cast House Signs
These signs are created from a single piece of high-quality polyurethane, a highly durable and resilient material that is solid, rigid, and resistant to corrosion.
One of the key benefits of using polyurethane over cast metal is that the lettering is sharper, allowing for more detailed and intricate designs in motifs, logos, and crests.

Wooden Signs
The Sign Maker craft each of our wooden signs with care and expertise. We stock a variety of timbers, with Oak being the most popular choice for its stunning grain and durability, making it ideal for high-quality, long-lasting signs. Another excellent option is Chestnut, often called "The Poor Man's Oak," offering similar qualities at a more affordable price.
Other popular timbers include Sapele and Iroko. Sapele is known for its rich, deep red tones and robust nature, while Iroko is highly sought after for its high oil content, making it a low-maintenance choice for wooden signs.
Whether it's a beautiful Iroko house sign featuring a farthing image or large commercial entrance signage, our experienced team can help you create a wooden sign you'll be proud of. From small house signs to business signage, we bring your vision to life with craftsmanship and care.
Stone Signs
We offer a wide selection of slate in various thicknesses, along with granite and marble, to create your custom house sign or nameplate exactly the way you envision it. We begin by selecting the perfect piece of slate or stone for your design, then cut and polish it to your desired size.
Our skilled craftsmen expertly sand-carve the lettering and apply durable, weather-resistant paint in a range of colors. While white is the most popular choice for slate signs, black provides a striking contrast, and for a softer, more natural look, we offer a pale green option that beautifully complements the grey slate, inspired by Farrow and Ball's Lichen.
For a truly unique touch, you can explore a variety of letter colors and hundreds of fonts available, so you're free to choose a style that suits your taste.
We also offer an alternative technique where the background is blasted away, leaving the letters raised slightly for a distinctive look.
