FAQs

Find answers to your questions about our services and how we can assist you.

Do I need planning permission for my shop sign?

Planning permission requirements for shop signs vary depending on location, size, and whether the property is listed or in a conservation area. Generally, signs that are proportionate to the building and don't feature illumination or movement may fall under 'deemed consent.' However, illuminated signs, signs above fascia level, and projecting signs often require explicit permission. We can advise on local regulations, help determine if permission is needed, and provide technical drawings for planning applications.

What paper options are available for business cards?

We offer a wide range of paper options for business cards including standard 350-400gsm silk or gloss, premium 450gsm silk with matt or gloss lamination, luxury 540gsm triplex (multi-layer) card, textured stocks (linen, felt, hammered), uncoated papers, and kraft or recycled options for eco-friendly cards. The choice of paper affects both the look and feel of your cards, with heavier weights and specialty finishes creating a more premium impression. We can provide paper samples to help you select the perfect option.

What special finishes can enhance my business cards?

We offer several special finishes to enhance your business cards, including spot UV varnish (highlights specific elements with a glossy raised finish), foil stamping (metallic gold, silver, or colored foil accents), embossing or debossing (creating raised or recessed elements), die-cutting (custom shapes or cut-out elements), rounded corners, edge painting (colored card edges), and soft-touch lamination (for a velvet-like feel). These premium finishes can be combined for truly distinctive cards that make a memorable impression.

What are the standard dimensions for business cards?

The standard dimensions for UK business cards are 85mm x 55mm, which is the most common size and fits perfectly in standard business card holders and wallets. We also offer square business cards (typically 55mm x 55mm), mini cards (often 85mm x 25mm), and folded business cards (85mm x 55mm when folded, 85mm x 110mm when open). Custom sizes are available for a unique look, though they may cost slightly more and might not fit standard holders.

How quickly can you deliver business cards?

Our standard production time for business cards is 3-4 business days from design approval. For urgent requirements, we offer express services that can deliver in 24-48 hours for an additional fee (available for standard cards without special finishes). Business cards with premium finishes like foil stamping, embossing, or spot UV typically require 5-7 business days. For large orders or cards with multiple special finishes, production may take 7-10 business days. We'll provide a specific timeline when quoting your project.

What information should I include on my business card?

Essential information for business cards includes your name, job title, company name and logo, phone number, email address, and website. Depending on your business and space available, you might also include a physical address, social media handles, professional qualifications, QR codes linking to your website or digital profile, and a brief tagline or service description. We recommend keeping the design clean and uncluttered, prioritizing the most important contact methods for your specific industry and target audience.
