Why order your board from us

🛠️
Printed and fitted in Alnwick
Printed on our own machines, laminated, trimmed and fitted in the frame here. Not a drop-shipped box with a poster to slide in yourself.
Laminated for outdoors
Every face gets an overlaminate. Rain runs off, colours don’t bleach, and you can wipe the chip-shop fingerprints off.
🔹
Honest all-in prices
The price shown is the whole board with both faces done. Design at £40 an hour is the only extra, and we tell you the hours first.
🔄
Re-skins keep it cheap
Most customers change the message, not the board. A £75 re-skin every season beats a new frame every year.
🚚
Collect or deliver
Pick up from our Alnwick unit, or we deliver. Within 10 miles a collect-and-return for a re-skin is £10.
🏆
Multi-site discounts
Same design across a chain of shops or a festival site? Prices step down at 2, 5 and 10 boards.
