About this sector

Exterior signage in much of West Yorkshire runs into planning: conservation areas, listed buildings and advertisement consent apply widely across Calderdale, Kirklees and the older parts of Leeds and Bradford.

A sign company that handles consent as part of the job saves considerably more than the price difference against one that does not.

Questions about signage and print

Do I need planning permission for a shop sign?

Often, yes. Illuminated signs, signs above a certain size, and any signage on a listed building or in a conservation area generally require advertisement consent from the local authority, and listed building consent as well where the building is listed. Calderdale and Kirklees both contain large conservation areas, so this catches more Halifax, Hebden Bridge and Huddersfield premises than owners expect. Consent typically takes eight weeks, so it belongs at the start of a project rather than the end.
