Sign Face Replacement Chorlton
Chorlton’s independent shops, bars and studios often have signs that are structurally fine but look faded or show a name that has changed. We make new faces for lightboxes and hanging signs and new vinyl for fascias, sized to the sign you already have, then fit them so your frontage looks right again.

Keeping a Chorlton frontage looking cared for
On streets like Beech Road, the frontage is a big part of how customers judge a place before they walk in. A sign with faded print, peeling vinyl or a crack across the face sends the wrong message, especially next to neighbours who keep theirs fresh. South-facing signs on Barlow Moor Road and Wilbraham Road fade faster than those in shade.
Replacing the face rather than the whole sign keeps the original frame and brackets, which often suit the building, and avoids drilling new holes. Our sign face replacement Manchester page has the general details.
Measuring your sign
We need the exact size of the face and how it is held in the frame. Many signs can be measured from photos with a tape measure in shot. Hanging signs and anything high are better measured in person. Chorlton is roughly 25 to 35 minutes from our office in Cheetham Hill through the city centre, depending on traffic.

Hanging signs and painted boards
A double-sided hanging sign has two faces, and the one facing the sun fades first. We replace both together so they match, and check the hanging points and bracket while the sign is down. For signs made from a panel rather than a lightbox, a new printed face or new cut vinyl over a cleaned panel gives the same fresh look.
Painted timber fascias can also be refreshed with new vinyl lettering. The old lettering comes off, the board is cleaned, and new lettering goes on in your current branding. If the paintwork itself is tired, it may be worth repainting the board first, and we can advise on that when we see it.
We replace faces and vinyl only. If a lightbox has stopped working, a qualified electrician needs to repair it first. For new signs, see illuminated signs and fascia signs, or shop signs Chorlton.
What do customers ask before ordering?
Can you refresh my Chorlton hanging sign without a new bracket?
Yes. We take the sign down, fit new faces and rehang it on the existing bracket once we have checked its fixings.
Can you match a hand-painted look?
We can produce lettering in a similar style with cut or printed vinyl. For true hand painting you would need a signwriter, and we can tell you which suits your sign better.
Can you fit after we close?
Yes. Evening and weekend fitting can be arranged.
What if the lightbox does not light up?
That needs a qualified electrician. We replace faces and vinyl only and can fit once the lights are working.
Do I need my original logo files?
They help, but we can also work from a clear photo or redraw simple lettering and logos.
Can you change just the name on the fascia?
Often yes. If the panel is sound we remove the old lettering and fit new vinyl without changing the rest of the sign.
