What Exactly is Our Role in Outfitting Your Site?

At Visual Impression Signs, we fully outfit construction projects from start to finish. Guiding clients to the ideal signage to meet their unique needs and challenges. Construction sites are visual billboards. We ensure yours makes the right impression.

Construction signage must check many boxes. Promoting your brand and services. Directing site traffic safely. Sharing permit info legally. All while withstanding rugged outdoor conditions.

With decades of experience, we simplify the process. First, understanding each project’s signage goals and constraints. Then recommending and creating solutions that are:

– Compliant and approved
– Built to last 
– Noticeable and effective
– Professionally branded

In short, we’re your one-stop sign shop. Guiding you to signage that protects, informs, and looks exceptional from day one through project completion.

What Does Our Meticulous Planning Process Entail?

Construction signage must adhere to zoning laws while allowing some creative liberties. Our project managers work with you and the city permit office to navigate requirements. Confirming proper formats, necessary content, and quantities based on factors like: 

– Street visibility of site
– Number of frontages 
– Setback distance
– Proximity to pedestrian areas

We measure site dimensions and map out exact sign locations to optimize visibility and impact. And advise on design strategies to make signage eye-catching within constraints.

Advance planning ensures your signs contain the right information, in permitted formats, to pass inspection and avoid fines. So production can proceed without delay.

How Do We Design Optimal Sign Solutions?

With a plan approved, our team crafts solutions tailored to your site’s unique needs. The materials and mounting methods we select aim for three objectives:

Visibility: Features like size, color, placement, lighting, and height draw attention. Reflective films add nighttime reflectivity.

Durability: Weatherproof, rugged materials stand up to sun, rain, dust, and wind. We avoid paper and light-duty plastics.

Functionality: The right materials pair with mounting suited to the location, whether fence, trailer, or ground-mounted.

For instance, a 20 foot vinyl mesh banner is far more visible and durable on a job board than a small paper poster. And it’s easier to swap out as projects progress.

Our design expertise produces signage that checks the visibility, durability, and functionality boxes specific to demanding construction sites.

What Services Can Our Installation Crews Provide?

With your signs designed and fabricated, our professional crews handle installation. Their construction site expertise allows efficient, non-disruptive placement and mounting.

We arrive with the necessary equipment for the designed mounting solution. Whether metal job sign frames to install, or posts to erect for banner mounting. Crews have experience navigating tight spaces with machinery.

After install, crews walk the site verifying visibility from all angles and directions based on provided mapping. We’ll adjust placement if needed before concluding the process.

For multi-sign orders, experienced crews work swiftly to minimize time onsite. And of course leave no trace when finished. Our goal is executing seamless installations that check all the boxes the first time.

Why Should You Invest in Ongoing Maintenance?

Construction demands durable signs, but exposure can still take a toll. We offer ongoing service to keep signage in optimal shape as projects progress.

From storm damage repair to replacing faded graphics or broken hardware, our teams quickly address issues. We can also swap signage as needed when projects hit milestones or new contractors join onsite.

Rely on us as your one-source solution for servicing construction signage needs from start to finish. Keeping your safety, branding, and wayfinding communications looking sharp.

What are the 5 Must-Have Construction Site Signs?

While every project’s needs are unique, a few signs provide core value:

1. Job Identification Signs
These prominent signs brand the prime contractors onsite and advertise services. Eye-catching design and ample size make your brand visible from a distance. Digital printing allows easy design customization for distinctive identity.

2. Safety Signs
Communicate hazards, instructions, and warnings prominently with weatherproof vinyl signs. Include emergency contacts, PPE rules, and hazard reminders. Durable and flexible vinyl withstands weather and repositioning.

3. Wayfinding Signs
Guide all site visitors with clear directional and parking signage. Keep the public, workers, and vendors out of hazardous areas. These rugged signs maintain safety while projecting professionalism.

4. Permit Box

Transparent permit boxes prominently display all required project permits onsite. Meet legal requirements while protecting documents from the elements.

5. Mesh Banners
Lightweight but high-visibility mesh banners are easy to swap out. Refresh with new messages as phases advance. Their breathable construction resists wind damage.

While we recommend starting with the essentials, most projects benefit from further specialized signs. Chat with our team about maximizing branded, legal, and functional comms. We’ll ensure your site puts its best face forward.
