Custom signs in Edmonton

Davis Printing designs and builds custom business signs in-house at our Edmonton shop — channel letters, illuminated cabinets, pylon signs, building signage and interior office signs. We fabricate, permit and install, so the sign on the drawing is the sign on the building.

Built in-house

Your sign never leaves our hands.

Your sign stays under one roof. From design and fabrication to LED work, permitting and installation, Davis Printing handles your project in-house from start to finish.

In-house capability

Every step of a custom sign, under one roof.

  • Design & artwork

    Our designers set the letterforms, colours and proportions and mock the sign onto a photo of your building before anything is cut.

  • Fabrication

    Aluminum returns, cabinets, backers and acrylic faces are formed, welded and painted on our own benches.

  • LED & electrical

    Modules and Alberta-rated power supplies are laid out and wired in-house for even light and easy servicing.

  • Permits

    We prepare scaled drawings and engineering and submit the City of Edmonton permit package on your behalf.

  • Installation

    Our own crew and lift equipment mount the sign and coordinate the electrical connection.

  • Service

    Refaces, LED retrofits and repairs — including on signs we did not originally build.

Permitting & installation in Edmonton

Most exterior signage in Edmonton needs a development or sign permit before it goes up, and landlords usually have their own criteria on top of that. Because we draw and build the sign ourselves, the permit package matches the sign exactly. We submit on your behalf and schedule installation with our own crew and lift equipment once approval lands.

  • Site survey

    Measurements, photos and mounting conditions recorded on site.

  • Permit package

    Scaled drawings, elevations and engineering where required.

  • Install & service

    Crew, lift and electrical coordination, plus later servicing.

Common questions

Custom signs in Edmonton, answered.

How much do custom signs cost in Edmonton?
Cost depends on size, illumination and how the sign mounts. A set of interior lobby letters is a different job from an illuminated storefront sign that needs a permit and a lift crew. Send dimensions or a photo of the wall and we will price the exact build — and we match any comparable written quote by 5%.
Do I need a permit for a business sign in Edmonton?
Most exterior signage in Edmonton needs a development or sign permit, and landlords usually add their own criteria. We prepare the scaled drawing package, submit on your behalf and book installation once approval lands.
Do you make your signs in-house?
Yes. Design, printing, aluminum fabrication, LED wiring, assembly and installation all happen at our Edmonton shop at 9828 44 Ave NW. Nothing is brokered out, so timelines and quality stay in our hands.
How long does a custom sign take?
Most interior and non-illuminated signs are fast turnaround. Illuminated exterior signs depend largely on permit approval times; fabrication itself typically runs a couple of weeks once artwork and permits are settled.
Can you service or reface a sign you did not build?
Yes. We reface cabinets, retrofit old fluorescent signs to LED and repair damaged faces and returns for buildings across Edmonton and the surrounding region.
