Services
Custom Neon Signs
We create bespoke neon signs tailored to your specific design preferences and space requirements. Our process combines traditional neon bending techniques with modern technology to produce both functional business signs and artistic installations. Each custom sign undergoes rigorous quality checks to ensure durability and visual impact, making your space stand out with vibrant, long-lasting illumination.
Channel Letter Signage
Our channel letter signs feature three-dimensional letters with internal lighting for maximum visibility. Available in front-lit (channel letters) or back-lit (reverse channel letters) configurations, these signs enhance business storefronts with professional-grade illumination. We handle complete installation including electrical components, ensuring safe and code-compliant operation.
Sign Renovations
We specialize in restoring aging signs to their original condition while maintaining structural integrity. Our renovation process includes neon tube replacement, electrical system upgrades, and weatherproofing treatments. This service extends the lifespan of existing signage while preserving its historical character and visual appeal.
Monument Lighting
Our monument signs combine architectural elements with integrated neon lighting for striking property identification. These freestanding structures serve as both directional guides and branding elements for commercial properties. We design each monument sign to complement surrounding architecture while ensuring optimal nighttime visibility.
Vinyl Lettering
We install high-performance vinyl lettering for windows, walls, and vehicle wraps. Our premium materials resist fading and weather damage while maintaining sharp, professional appearance. This cost-effective solution provides clear branding and directional information for businesses seeking non-illuminated signage options.

Report
Very happy to report that our neon sign turned out beautiful and installation was done very well. I was warned that over the first months we could have failures with (I believe )the built in transformer, and we did. The crew from this company promptly responded and fixed the problem quickly and at no extra cost. I fount them to be a company that stands behind their work and cares that we are satisfied. I would recommend this neon sign crew to anyone wanting that classic look of neon, not LEDs. They know their product well and present it with honesty and follow through.

I am so pleased with my custom neon logo made by Riofine. It is a perfect replica of my logo not to mention the neon is beautiful and bright. Absolutely perfect. The neon was completed within the time frame I was told (I think sooner actually). They came out to install and it is precisely placed and secure on my indoor wall. Rio and Ryan we're both extremely professional and kind, a pleasure to do business with. I highly recommend Riofine to anyone looking for a great neon sign.
