Traditional van signwriting puts your business name, phone number and trade clearly on your van using cut vinyl lettering or hand-applied graphics. We produce clean, readable signwriting for Cambridge tradespeople and local businesses that want a professional appearance on the road.
Van signwriting is the straightforward application of your business details - name, number, trade description, website - to the exterior of your van. It is the first thing potential customers see when your vehicle is parked outside a job, and it works as a moving advert every time you drive through Cambridge or the surrounding villages.
The process starts with deciding what information goes where and how large the lettering needs to be to be legible from the pavement. We produce cut vinyl lettering in your chosen colours and font, then apply it panel by panel, taking care with spacing and alignment. For more complex layouts we can add simple logo elements or a border. The result is flat to the surface, not a sticker that peels at the corners.
DIY vinyl kits from online suppliers look appealing, but applying long runs of lettering straight and bubble-free without experience is harder than it looks. Misaligned text or lifted edges make a van look unprofessional, which is the opposite of what signwriting is meant to achieve. Getting it done once, properly, is better value than re-doing it.
We ask for your preferred wording, any logo files if you have them, and your van's make and model. If you are starting from scratch with no existing brand, we can suggest a clean, readable layout that suits a tradesperson's van. Most standard signwriting jobs are completed in half a day. We work from our Cambridge workshop and can often fit you in within the week.
Basic van signwriting in Cambridge - business name, phone number and trade on both sides and the rear - typically costs between £80 and £250 depending on the amount of text and whether a logo is included.
