Signage for Seattle

Storefront, Neon, Blade and Building Signs

Seattle is a city of neighborhoods, and every block has its own character. A sign that works in Pioneer Square may look out of place in Fremont. We design signs that fit the street you are on, stand out to the people walking or driving past, and say clearly who you are.

For over 30 years, Northwest Sign & Design has built signs for Seattle restaurants, clinics, coworking spaces, churches, hospitals and retailers. Our in-house team handles design, permitting support, fabrication and installation, so you have one partner from first sketch to final inspection.

Signs we build for Seattle businesses:

Blade and projecting signs for walkable neighborhoods
Storefront wall signs and channel letters, including halo-lit and face-lit letters
Neon and LED neon for bars, restaurants and retail
Building and monument signs for offices, medical centers and churches
Interior, lobby and wayfinding signs
Sign refaces, repairs and LED upgrades

We know Seattle!

Approvals, Permits & Installation

City sign rules, landlord approvals and historic district reviews can add steps in Seattle. We help you plan for them early, design within your landlord's sign criteria, and prepare the drawings the city and your landlord need.

Fabrication happens in our own shop, and our install crews work around tight sidewalks, busy streets and tall buildings every day.

Common questions

Do I need a permit for a sign in Seattle? Most exterior signs do, and some neighborhoods have extra design review. We look at the requirements for your address as part of every project.

Do you install on upper floors or tall buildings? Yes. Tell us about your building during the consultation and we will plan the right equipment and approach.

We also serve Monroe, Everett, Bellevue & the Eastside and Skagit County.
