The Sign Place The Sign Place, is fully licensed and insured, and has been family owned and operated, right here in San Luis Obispo, since it's founding in 1989. Over the years, we have partnered with thousands of companies and institutions, large and small, to develop professional signage of all varieties.

Sign making has come a long way from the days of hand carving and painting. We utilize the latest in wide format and flatbed printing technologies, laser and rotary engraving systems, and computer-controlled vinyl film cutting systems to offer the widest possible range of sign fabricating options.

Our mission statement is A TOTAL COMMITMENT TO EXCELLENCE. That promise manifests itself in every client interface from initial design consultation with one of our experienced graphics artists, through the professional installation of your project by our licensed and insured install team.

My company is based in Portland, but we have an Atascadero office. That office needed a sign, so I had to do everything remotely and over email. Molly and the team were so helpful and responsive, and the sign came out perfect. It was a great experience!

Amanda represented our company for a large order of eco-friendly yard signs. Not only is this the only sign place to have understood our needs for sustainable materials, but they delivered our finished product flawlessly and ahead of the projected deadline. I can not think of a better place to go for all of your project's needs.

I recently requested the help from the staff at The Sign Place in San Luis Obispo to make my 2019 Subaru Outback, white...like 100's of others on the road, different. I had seen some graphics on one earlier this year but since I live near the ocean, I wanted something that I love...the beach. They worked with me in designing some graphics for the sides of my car and we came up with some waves.

For me, perfect. Not overdone, yet simple and different. Everyone I worked with was professional and since I remembered working with them for our fleet of trucks when we owned our plastering company, they were my first and only go to. This is a first rate shop and they know their business. Service was excellent and the product better than expected.

We are a non-profit on a budget and The Sign Place always seems to deliver the highest quality design and product at a great price! Molly has worked with us on a few different occasions and manages to come up with exactly what we are looking for with little direction. We will definitely return to The Sign Place for future projects! -- City Farm-SLO

I opened up an office in SLO and needed building signage as well as a "picture" and name for our front business door. The Sign place took my basic idea and came back with great results. I was most impressed by the mock up that they sent me by email. They went out and took pictures of where the signage was going to go so that I could see what the mock up would like on the actual building and front door. Quick, dependable and quality work. I recommend their services 100%.

We needed banners for our annual PTA fundraising event (last minute as usual) and not only did The Sign Place deliver excellent banners but they finished them early and accommodated a last minute change as well. Their professionalism and generosity are greatly appreciated by the Sinsheimer PTA. Thanks to all!

It is always a pleasure to work with the folks at the Sign Place. The first job I gave them was almost 30 years ago when both Karen (the owner) and I were starting our businesses in SLO. They have been my sign company ever since. I just picked up an order from them the other day, and felt a need to express my gratitude to them

Had the best experience with the Sign Place and their staff. They printed our Measure L campaign signs and they turned out beautifully. The business went the extra mile to have them finished early and even completed much of the assembly process which saved us precious time. Thanks Sign Place! You will be highly recommended to everyone.

The Sign Place is 'The Place' in San Luis Obispo for high quality, professional signage with exceptional customer service. Molly always treats us amazingly well. She took a fragmented old digital file and turned it into something she could work with to produce our beautiful sign. Turnaround was quick, affordable and a pleasure to work with. Six stars!

I just used The Sign Place for our business front door signage. I called and got Molly. She was quick to understand what I needed and with one photo sent be me over email said she would get a quote and print for my approval. In just a couple of days or less she sent me a nice photo of my window door as it is was completed. It was professional and easy to see what the finished product should look like. The pricing was less than expected installed and I approved and in a week it was done perfectly. I would recommend The Sign Place and Molly.

I have used many different sign stores over the years and my experience with The Sign Place was my best ever! Molly was beyond professional and always responded to my many change orders, usually within a few minutes. Thanks so much for my custom sign and I will definitely be using you exclusively for all of my sign needs moving forward. Thanks again!
