FAQ
Why chose hand painted or gold leaf signs over vinyl?
In a design-driven city like Los Angeles, your signage is often the very first impression customers have of your business. While vinyl signage offers convenience, hand-painted and gold leaf signs deliver a level of craftsmanship, durability, and visual impact that vinyl simply cannot.
Handcrafted signs are produced by skilled artists, not machines. Every piece is unique and one of a kind, with subtle details, texture, and character that cannot be replicated by vinyl.
While vinyl may be a budget-friendly option, it often lacks the depth, permanence, and quality that hand-painted and gold leaf signage can bring to a space. Handcrafted signs are intentional and thoughtful. They tell a story, showcase true artistry, and create a lasting impression that continues to support your brand beyond the first glance.
Of course we are probably a little biased... but, please keep the craft alive and choose hand painted!
How much does a hand painted sign cost?
Pricing varies by project as each sign is unique and custom to your project. Costs are based more on design complexity, materials, and techniques rather than on size alone. Sharing your budget with us will help us work with you to create an effective sign solution within your budget.
Can you color match?
All custom colors are mixed by hand. While it may not be an exact match, we generally get pretty close! If you can provide a Pantone color or paint chip sample we will do our best to match.
Do you travel?
We do work all over Los Angeles county, but have ventured to other counties and even out of state!
How long do I have to wait to get my sign painted?
This usually depends on how busy we are at the time your reach out, however we can usually get you scheduled within 2-3 weeks. If your sign requires more urgency, please let us know and we will do our best to accommodate.
