House names sandblasted on to these heavy chunks of Slate hand picked from the quarries of north Wales. Each piece is unique in shape and size and available in the traditional dark grey or heather finest Welsh slate.
The lettering is sandblasted into the surface of the honed slate in sharp detail and infilled with enamel paint which will ensure decades of maintenance free durability. These individual House Signs will make a beautiful accessory to your home and can be personalised with your own choice of font and can be viewed prior to buying by email.
Thinking of giving the home a makeover this spring? If you're looking for a long term maintenance free solution to adding a name to your home - look no further than our Slate House Signs and slate number plaques. Each House Sign is individually tailored to your need and can be viewed before purchase. We sanblast the letters deeply into the surface of the slate house plaque before infilling with 2 coats of enamel paint which ensures decades of maintenance free durability. We offer a wide range of fonts and decorative motifs to further personalise your nameplate. There is also an option to have the Slate house sign fitted to a metal ground stake.
Here are some examples of our House Signs created in Slate, Marble, Hardwood and Brass. Our slate house signs can be wall mounted or are available as freestanding chunks of heavy slate with the face polished and the lettering sandblasted deeply into the surface and infilled with enamel paint. Different silhouette motifs are available from our menu or we can design unusual or quirky silhouettes or motifs to personalise each house sign or house plaque. Marble house plaques are available with or without borders and can be made with any type of font. Our wooden house signs come with a choice of decorative full colour motifs and again we can come up with distinct and individual motifs to suit any house nameplate.

Wedeliver all orders within 14 days and can usually accommodate urgent orders requiring less lead time. Helpful advice is always at hand and our design team are available to send mockups prior to ordering.
Spruce up your home this spring with a new house sign in Welsh Hardwood. All our hardwoods are envorinmentally friendly & sourced locally and are harvested under the the stewardship of Coed Cymru (a partly funded governmental body dedicated to the well being of the woodlands of rural Wales). As the maximum width of our Wooden House Signs are around 8", we are able to obtain our logs from contractors who specialise in "thinning" various woodlands within a 25 mile radius. The thinning process has been going on for hundreds of years to ensure the healthy growth of our natural species of broad leaved hardwoods such as beech, oak, birch, sycamore and ash. We cut our own logs into slices and naturally dry them before going on to plane and sand both sides to a high standard finish. Each slice is then dipped in several coats of marine varnish with a hand sanding process between coats.The end result is a superb glass weatherproof finish of ready use stock of House Plaques in several sizes We then call upon the blank stock to complete orders. Each order is individually handled and the lettering and decorative motifs are applied to the surface and the whole plaque is then dipped once again in a final coat of marine varnish before despatch. We have a wide range of decorative motifs available and can usually accommodate any unusual or quirky request to make your House Sign special..
Al our Wooden House nameplates can be mocked up in advance of ordering and we can also cater for any type of font not on our menu.
