Sign
Permits

City sign permits handled end to end: submittals, variances, engineering letters, and landlord approvals.

Overview

The part of the sign business nobody likes

Every city writes its own sign code, and most sign delays are permit delays. We survey the site, prepare the drawings the city wants to see, submit, and follow up until the approval comes through.

We pull permits for our own fabrication jobs and for signs we didn't build. If a landlord needs stamped engineering or a variance hearing is required, we manage that too.

Where we pull permits

Riverside, Jurupa Valley, Rialto, Corona, Moreno Valley, San Bernardino, and cities across the Inland Empire and greater Southern California.

Common questions

Straight answers

How long does a sign permit take?

It depends on the city. Simple wall signs can clear in weeks, and variances take longer. We tell you the realistic timeline for your city before we start.

Can you permit a sign you didn't build?

Yes. We survey the existing sign, produce the drawings, and run the submittal.

What does a sign permit cost?

Two parts: the city's fees and our processing work. Fees vary by city and sign size, so we break both out in the quote before you commit.

Do I really need a permit for my sign?

Almost always for exterior signs, and cities do red-tag unpermitted ones. If your sign is small enough to skip the permit, we'll tell you.
