Maintenance

Signs work hard. Weather, sunlight, dirt and everyday knocks all take their toll, and a sign with failed lights or faded graphics says the wrong thing about the business behind it. We keep signage clean, working and looking as it should.

From our base in Bolton, Greater Manchester, we maintain signage for clients across Manchester and throughout the UK, from a single shopfront to estates of buildings.

What our maintenance service covers

  • Planned maintenance contracts with scheduled visits
  • Reactive repairs, with response from as little as 24 hours
  • Condition surveys of existing signage
  • LED upgrades for older illuminated signs
  • Cleaning, replacement graphics and panel repairs
  • Sign removal and making good

Planned maintenance

A planned contract puts your signs on a regular schedule of inspection, cleaning and repair, so problems are caught early and your signage stays consistent. It is particularly valuable across estates and multi site portfolios.

Reactive repairs

When a sign is damaged, lights fail or graphics come away, we can respond from as little as 24 hours to make it safe and put it right.

Condition surveys

We survey your signage, on one site or across an entire estate, and report on its condition, any safety concerns and the priorities for repair or replacement, so you can plan and budget with confidence.

LED upgrades

Older illuminated signs can be upgraded to LED, which uses less energy, runs cooler and lasts far longer, reducing both running costs and future maintenance.

Removal and making good

At the end of a lease, after a rebrand or when a building changes use, we remove signage safely and make good the building behind it.

One company, start to finish

Maintenance is one part of a single service. We also handle design, manufacture and installation, so there is one point of contact and one company responsible from the first survey to the finished sign and beyond.
