surveys... 
​is it a necessity?

It's not, but a site survey is a smart first step for your signage project. Before jumping into design or production, one of the most important steps in any signage project is a site survey -and here’s why it matters more than most people realize.​
​

Right Sign, Right Place

Accurate Measurements

Every location is unique. A site survey gives us a clear understanding of the space where your sign will go - its size, lighting, surroundings, and how people will view it. This helps us recommend the most effective signage for your specific needs, not just something that looks good on paper.

Code Compliance and Permits

Different cities and buildings have different rules when it comes to signage. During a survey, we’ll identify any restrictions, zoning codes, or permit requirements early on, so there are no surprises or delays later in the process.
Guesswork can lead to costly mistakes. A site survey ensures we get precise measurements, so your signage fits perfectly - whether it’s on a storefront, a wall, or in an open space. This also helps us plan for any installation challenges before they happen.

Better Design Decisions

A good design doesn’t just look nice - it works well in the real world. Knowing the materials of the surface, how much sunlight the area gets, or even how foot and vehicle traffic flows can influence important design choices. A site survey gives us that real-world context.

Smoother Installation

A proper survey helps our installation team prepare for exactly what’s needed - like lift access, electrical hook-ups, or mounting conditions. That means fewer delays, better safety, and a faster, more efficient install.

In Short...

A site survey sets your signage project up for success. It helps us design smarter, plan better, and avoid costly issues down the road. Think of it as laying the foundation for a sign that not only looks great - but works exactly as it should.

A site survey is one of the most important steps you can take before starting. 

A site survey gives you peace of mind. It helps avoid costly mistakes, delays, or last-minute changes by catching potential issues early - before any design or production begins. You’ll know exactly what to expect, and you’ll be able to move forward with clarity and confidence. 
​
We take care of the entire survey process for you. Our experienced team will handle everything - visit your site, gather all the necessary information, and ensure everything is in place for a smooth, stress-free experience.  It’s all about setting you up for success and making sure your signage looks great, works well, and lasts.
