Ashridgewood Business Park Signage

We have used SOTT for many years and always found their products to be high quality and long lasting along with an excellent service. They have just provided us with entrance and estate signage for our new business park which is all first class. I would have no hesitation recommending them to others.

The Signs of the Times team were extremely helpful and thorough in helping us to design our heritage blue plaque and we were absolutely delighted with the quality of the final product. The finish is outstanding and looks exactly like the heritage plaques you see on buildings around the country. A fantastic service.

Billy Wright Blue plaque

We ordered a Blue Plaque to commemorate that the Footballer, Billy Wright lived in our cottage.
Sighs of the Times took great care to get it just right and delivered it in plenty of time.
We are extremely pleased with the result and everyone who has seen has been most impressed with the quality of it.
We can’t recommend Signs of the Times highly enough.

Great quality Blue Plaques.

This is the 2nd time that Thatcham Town Council has used Sign of the Times for their historic blue plaque scheme. The quality is extremely high and the ease of liaising with the team for the design has been phenomenal. We will use them for future projects.

We live in a Grade II Listed building that had a Blue Plaque fitted in 1986 and after 33 years exposed to the weather on Tyneside it was in a very poor condition. SOTT were brilliant in explaining how to get it to them and in returning it by UPS. The results of their work were amazing and the plaque looks brand new. They even included new fixing screws with the heads painted the same colour as the plaque, which I thought was a touch of class. They were very very competitive price wise with similar operations and great to deal with on the phone/email and exceeded our expectations so 5 stars from us!

Front of House Door Sign

I needed a house sign to fit to my front door. I am so glad I found Sign of the Times. Absolutely fantastic customer service from start to finish so happy.

I approached the company as I was unsure over which design and colour to go for and needed some professional advice. Julie was so helpful and kindly arranged for some ideas and designs to be sent to me for consideration and offered a professional recommendation according to my new house colour and style. I really liked the personal touch and the effort this company goes to make to make the customer happy. I had so many questions and sent so many emails to the company before settling on a colour and design. But the company always responded quickly and politely I am so impressed.

My sign arrived sooner than anticipated and the quality was better than what I ever imagined. If anyone wants a high quality sign then go for this company you won’t be disappointed by the craftsmanship at all. Quality family company and would have absolutely no problem recommending to anyone.

Thanks so much Julie and team for all your hard work and professional service. My family (wife and children) think the new door sign looks amazing!!!!!!
