Hi Louis!
Thanks for reaching back out! Pricing that I have originally provided per sign is still valid. I have it
copied again here for you below - if you all have any other questions just reach out.
Full re-face of one sign — $338
We would apply new vinyl to both sides of the sign. You would need to bring the sign back to us for
the reface. There is a slight chance that some blemishes from the original vinyl may show through
since the new vinyl would be layered on top.
Vinyl “band-aid” for the lower half — $196
This would cover just the bottom portion on both sides of the sign. You can apply these yourselves,
or bring the sign in and we can lay them down. I don’t necessarily recommend this option due to
potential color variation and the possibility of seeing where the new vinyl overlaps the old.
Hanging add-on sign — $243.56
We can create a smaller sign (42" wide × 18" tall) that hangs below your existing sign. We would add
grommets to both the current sign and the new piece so they can connect cleanly. This keeps the
original intact while updating the wording.

Good morning Ash,
Thank you for this updated proposal clarifying the prices for a per sign
cost and the 30 day pricing.
I will be sharing with the Parking Authority on December 10th as they
begin to consider their budget needs for FY 27.
Your assistance with this matter is appreciated.
