Questions

Event signage questions

How long does event signage take?
The entire process can take up to two weeks, though we often deliver in less time. We keep most banners and sandwich boards in stock, while flags need to be ordered in. In most cases, delays in production are due to us waiting for materials to arrive. Once your sign or flag is complete, we contact you to arrange pick-up.
How much does event signage cost?
Costs vary based on the type of sign. Banners are priced by the square foot and typically range from $100 to $600, depending on size. A-boards (sandwich boards) range from $165 to $700 based on the size of the sign and the materials used. Lawn signs are $60 to $300 per order, depending on size and quantity. Flags start at $350 and can range to over $1,000, as size, material, and required durability all affect the cost.
What warranty comes with event signage?
All our work comes with a 1 year labour warranty. Material warranties vary by product: banners 1 year, A-boards 1 year, lawn signs 1 year, flags 90 days, and site signs 5 years.
How do I know which type of sign I need?
If you are unsure which type of promotional signage suits your event or business, a consultation is the best place to start. We work out your needs, requirements, and budget so the sign fits the job.
