Permits

Prior to your job even being sold, in depth research is done to determine the type and size of sign your business will be allowed to install. Depending on where your business is located, determines which city or county will review and approve your permit. Each municipality has their own sign code, applications and review procedures.

There are 4 steps of the signage process:

1. Code Research
2. Sign Design within Code Parameters
3. Sign Permit Application
4. Sign Permit Review & Waiting Period

The approval process typically takes anywhere from 3-6 weeks. Once approval is provided by the city or county then we are able to begin production and installation of the sign.
