Commercial signwriting and gilding 

SERVICES INCLUDE: 

Custom hand painted shop front exterior fascia signage, logo painting, beauty salon murals, signage restoration, tattoo shop window design, traditional sign painting services for signs, boats, glass, wood, chalk boards throughout the South East. I also offer temporary Easter, Sale and festive Christmas window displays painted onto the glass.

Gilding with gold leaf is available on shop windows, produced on the inside of the glass by reverse glass gilding for beautiful, modern shop window displays. (See gilding page here). The introduction of gold leaf into signwriting produces a stunning high-end finish. Gold leaf is also available on wooden shop front boards, with hand painted lettering. The sign I gilded for Fitzbillies in Cambridge, as pictured above, uses 23ct gold leaf on a hanging sign board.

What is signwriting?

Signwriting is a traditional technique of hand painting letters onto a shop front board or window. This skilled trade is becoming less seen on our high streets with the introduction of vinyl and printed signs. Traditional hand painted lettering on shop fronts is long lasting, beautifully designed and stands out against all those shop fronts which look the same. Also available for van and vehicle signwriting in Cambridgeshire, Suffolk and Norfolk.
