Remodeling or renovating a business takes significant effort, time, and investment, but it’s an exciting process to bring your brand into a new era through facility updates. For the duration of your project, you’ll need signage to direct vendors and workers through the site. And if you continue to operate during the renovation, customers and visitors will need signs to help them navigate your business.
Custom signage provides value beyond practical wayfinding needs. It can tell your brand story. When you are already taking on a physical refresh of your brand through a renovation, it makes sense to update your branding at the same time to increase the impact of the project. Custom signage can improve the efficiency of your remodeling project and yield a more compelling end result. Here’s how.
Types of Remodeling Signage
Wayfinding signage is typically top of mind when taking on a remodeling project. This could include directional signage, ADA-compliant signage for construction companies, and other wayfinding signage to help vendors, customers, and visitors navigate your business while you are remodeling.
Outdoor Renovation Signs
Remodeling projects need clear outdoor signage that indicates the location, the presence of the business, and any possible directional needs. It’s critical for your business to be visible so that you don’t lose out on customers, even while you’re in the process of renovating.
Medium Density Overlay (MDO) Signage
During a renovation or remodel, your project may require durable outdoor signage like an MDO to indicate location, provide information about the remodel, or simply to build anticipation about the project. Made of plywood and formed into a thick, durable sign that can stand up to wear, this signage type is incredibly practical for outdoor use and is a common fixture on new construction and remodel sites.
Safety Signage
Proper signage is critical for the safety of your renovation contractors and your customers. This includes everything from signage indicating required protection or uniforms to ADA-compliant signage to ensure that all people on your job site can read essential information.
Indoor Renovation Signs
Proper signage inside your business location is essential when undertaking renovations. You’ll need straightforward signage to promote your business and indicate its presence, but you may also need more specialized signage for specific aspects of the remodeling project, like safety or wayfinding signage.
Lobby Signs
If the entirety of your building or business location is under construction, proper signage in the lobby is crucial. Whatever form of sign you choose, whether affixed to the wall or freestanding, you’ll need proper directional and brand signage inside the immediate entrance of the building or facility.
ADA-Compliant Interior Signage for Renovation Projects
Most renovation projects take months, if not years, to complete — and you won’t be able to operate without compliant signage during that period. Adhering to ADA signage rules is essential.
Remodeling Signage Materials
The scale and scope of your remodel will determine the materials you select for both indoor and outdoor signage during a business remodel. Reveal Graphics partners with numerous signage producers in the industry and can offer top-of-the-line printing, laser, cutting, welding, and painting to ensure the quality of your remodeling signage.
One material that is particularly well suited for renovation signs is DI-NOC. This material can be applied to doors, furniture, and walls. One of the benefits of DI-NOC for remodel projects is its numerous applications. It can be used to refresh existing furniture or materials instead of replacing them, which saves businesses overall remodeling costs.
Rebranding Signage
A business remodel or renovation is an excellent time to consider an overall branding refresh. You’re already investing considerably in a refresh of your brand’s physical presence. Extend the impact by updating your brand logos, signage, and more to feel as fresh, new, and exciting as your remodel project.
