Neon sign prices in the UK: what a custom LED neon sign costs
Short answer: a custom LED neon sign from Underneon starts from €60. What you finally pay depends on how big the sign is and how much neon it takes to draw your design, then on the build quality, the backing, weatherproofing and your deadline.
We quote in euros because every sign is handmade in our own workshop in Daugavpils, in the EU, and shipped to you from there. Your free quote states the exact price.
What changes the price of a neon sign
A custom sign is priced from your actual design. These are the things that make the difference:
| What changes the price | Usually lower | Usually higher |
|---|---|---|
| Size | A compact sign for a counter, shelf or bedroom wall | A large wall piece or a shopfront sign |
| Amount of neon | A short word in bold capitals | Flowing script or a detailed logo |
| Separate pieces | One continuous line | Many individual letters and shapes, each fixed and wired |
| Build quality | Economy | Original |
| Backing | Clear acrylic cut around the design | Printed, tinted or black acrylic, a mirror, timber or metal mesh |
| Weatherproofing | Indoor sign, no protection needed | Outdoor sign: weatherproofing adds 25% |
| Deadline | Standard production, 10–15 working days | Rush order, from 5 working days |
| Controls | Single colour | RGB colour change, dimmer or timer |
Original or Economy?
Short answer for UK businesses: if the sign shows your brand on the high street or behind the counter every day, go for Original. For a launch, a pop-up or a party, Economy keeps the cost down.
| Original | Economy | |
|---|---|---|
| Light | Uniform from end to end | Letter ends and small details may look dimmer |
| Wiring | Tucked away behind the panel, no glow leaking through | Cables may be visible, some glow from behind |
| Detail | Finer, crisper line | Chunkier line, less fine detail |
| Weatherproofing (extra, +25%) | IP67 at most | IP65 at most |
