I highly recommend Budget Signs! I needed a: single sided, 24"x36", corrugated-plastic sign in less than 10 days. The staff at Budget Signs met this goal and the finished product was perfect! They used UV-cured ink, so the sign is very durable. They also professionally mounted it on an A-frame, plastic board upon pickup. Everyone at the store was genuinely kind and exceptional at their craft. Definitely work with this team for your next custom, printing needs!

I had a great experience with these guys! They gave me excellent advice on all aspects of my projects, got the work done on time, and were very fun and easy to work with. If I have any more projects in the future, I won't look anywhere else. This is my place.

I called this company first because of the quantity/quality rating. Speaking to Phil over the phone, excellent first impression. Going in then, meeting him and Hannah, very happy with their guidance and input [This was for a female, so Hannah's views were particularly apropos]. I had a plaque in mind and, being lo-tech, had written my script by hand rather than type. Phil thought it was legible enough, and was - mostly - right; e.g., Emailing the first draft layout, Luke put in a comma where I'd wanted a period.
But looking at my copy original, saw that my 'period' did indeed resemble a comma - so I appreciated his professionalism in taking my [apparent] writing literally; it's MY job to edit, correct, clarify. That said; from the first draft, Luke had squared up and prettied up the lettering, spacing, according to the message - knowing where to enlarge this, separate that. I sorta expect that skill, but I certainly don't take it for granted: I'm a good writer, but Luke KNOWS how to. uh. plaqueify [?]. Got it dialed in, gave the go-ahead, and a long-winded plaque was ready overnight! Picking it up, expecting a beauty, got. beauty PLUS. Gratifying experience, beginning to end.
