A Free Site Visit So Your Quote Is Built on Facts, Not Guesses
A price based on a phone call and a rough guess at the wall size is a price that changes later. Measuring on site is how you get a quote that holds.
We visit your location in Calgary or the surrounding areas, measure the wall and check everything the sign depends on. In Calgary the visit and measurement are free.
- Free site visit & measurement
- Design included
- 2-year warranty
- Own workshop in Calgary
What We Check on the Visit
A site visit usually takes less time than people expect, but it answers the questions that decide the sign’s size, type, price and installation.
- Exact wall dimensions and the space available for the sign
- Wall surface: brick, stucco, metal cladding, concrete, glass
- Where power is available for an illuminated sign
- Access for installation: height, obstacles, ladder or lift
- Sightlines: where customers will see the sign from
- Existing sign or cabinet that could be reused
Why the Visit Saves You Money and Time
A quote that does not change
Measured sizes and known conditions mean no surprises after you approve the price.
The right sign for the spot
Seeing the site shows whether letters, a light box, neon or a panel will work best.
Reuse what still works
If you already have a cabinet, we check whether a new face or new graphics is enough.
No delays on installation day
Power, access and fixings are planned in advance.
It costs nothing
In Calgary the site visit and measurement are free, with no obligation.
How to Prepare for the Visit
Your logo
Any format is fine; SVG is preferred. A picture works too.
Landlord’s sign criteria
If you lease in a plaza or building, ask the landlord for their sign rules. They shape the design. See landlord sign criteria.
Your ideas
Photos of signs you like, the colours you use, and how you want the business to look at night.
Access
Let us know if the wall is behind a fence, above an awning or needs the landlord to open a door, so we can plan the visit around it.
What Happens After the Visit
You receive a visual concept of the sign on your building and a written quote. Nothing is ordered until you approve it.
Production takes about two weeks on average once the details are confirmed and the 50% deposit is received. If a permit is needed, the drawings are prepared from the same measurements. See sign permit support.
What the Visit Often Reveals
Many projects change for the better once someone stands in front of the wall. A sign planned for above the door may read better on a side wall that faces the main road. A planned light box may sit behind a tree in summer. An old cabinet that looked beyond repair in a photo may only need a new face.
Small details matter as well: a wall that sounds solid but is hollow behind the cladding, power that is on the opposite side of the building, or a canopy that limits the sign height. Finding these on a visit costs nothing; finding them on installation day costs time and money.
It also gives you a chance to ask questions face to face (about the sign type, the permit, the landlord’s rules or the timeline) and get straight answers from the company that will build the sign.

From photos and rough sizes we can give a ballpark, and the online calculators help too. The final price is confirmed after measuring.
