Sign Face Replacement Stretford
Trafford Park units and Stretford shops often have sign structures that are perfectly sound while the faces have faded, cracked or carry an old company name. We make new faces for totems, lightboxes and projecting signs, and new vinyl for fascias, sized to your existing frames, then fit them for you.

Refacing signs in Trafford Park and Stretford
Business park totems in Trafford Park carry several tenant names, and every re-let means a new panel. Warehouse lightboxes above offices and loading bays fade after years of sun. In Stretford, shop lightboxes around Stretford Mall and the parades yellow and crack over time.
In each case, the structure and lighting are usually fine. Replacing the face is quicker and less disruptive than a new sign. Our sign face replacement Manchester page has more detail.
Measuring
Stretford is roughly 20 to 25 minutes from our office via the A56 and Chester Road, depending on traffic. Many signs can be measured from photos with a tape measure in shot; totems and high warehouse signs are measured on site.

Gate totems and tenant panels
A gate totem on a busy estate is how delivery drivers find a unit, so a missing, faded or outdated panel causes real problems. Panels usually slide out of a channel from the top or side; some sit behind a clip-on trim. We check how yours is built before making anything, then make a panel matched to the others in size, background colour and lettering height.
Landlords and managing agents with several totems across Trafford Park can book panel changes as units are re-let, or as part of a regular maintenance schedule, so every sign on the estate stays current.
High warehouse lightboxes need access equipment, which we plan around the yard so deliveries carry on. Shop lightboxes in Stretford need faces made for illuminated signs, so colours look right lit and unlit; polycarbonate is worth choosing for low signs.
We do not touch electrics. If a sign is dark, a qualified electrician needs to repair it before we fit the face. For new signs, see illuminated signs and fascia signs, or shop signs Stretford.
Flat warehouse fascias and office signs without lighting can often be refreshed with new vinyl. We strip the old lettering and glue, clean the panel and apply new cut or printed vinyl, which rebrands the unit without new fixings in the cladding.
Include a close-up of the panel edge or channel when you send photos. It shows how the face is held and how the swap will be done, which helps us quote accurately.
When we fit a new lightbox face, we also clean inside the box, because dust and insects show through once the sign is lit.
What do customers ask before ordering?
Our Trafford Park landlord has a panel standard. Can you follow it?
Yes. Send us the standard or photos of the existing panels and we match background colour, lettering height and font.
The totem is by a busy estate road. How do you work safely?
We fence off the area, use a banksman if needed and pick a quieter time, so traffic keeps moving while we change the panel.
Can you reface a lightbox high on our warehouse?
Yes, using access equipment planned around the yard so deliveries are not blocked.
Do new faces fade quickly?
Faces made for outdoor signs keep their colour for years in normal conditions, though south-facing signs fade sooner than others.
Can a Stretford shop sign be refreshed outside opening hours?
Yes. We can fit early, late or at a weekend so trading carries on.
What if the sign does not light after the swap?
We do not touch wiring, so if the lights were already faulty, a qualified electrician needs to fix them. We check with you beforehand whether the sign is working.
