Trudy Silcox suppliers of House signs,
hand painted house signs, house plaques and house numbers.

House signs, names and numbers hand painted in any subject, can make your house sign special and individual to you. I can paint or design house signs from a supplied photo, rough drawing or from scratch, following your brief. As these house signs are so highly personal, it is always helpful to discuss your requirements over the phone.

I pride myself in the amount of detail used in my work to make your house number or name not just an address marker but a painting in its own right.

Any favourite subject, flowers, birds, animals, hobbies, trees, favourite places, cartoons, sports, houses, in fact, anything at all can become the perfect subject for your custom house sign. Perhaps the sample house numbers, signs and address plaques on this site will give you a better idea of my hand painted work. Many customers have come back to me for new house signs when they've moved or commissioned them for family and friends.

Unique House Signs and House Numbers

Every care is taken to ensure that your house sign or number is not only unique but, also weatherproof and durable to last for many years to come. All the paints used for your custom sign are of the highest quality artist grade, even the background colour. They are waterproof and highly lightfast to ensure the colours remain as vibrant as the day they were hand painted for many years to come. We produce high quality work for hand painted house signs, house plaques and house numbers.

Materials for House Signs and House Plaques

The board used as the base is Medite exterior grade, used extensively for outdoor house signs including large pub signs, address plaques, shop fronts, fascia boards and outdoor display signs. Unlike wood, it won't warp and has the added advantage over resin or ceramic of not cracking or chipping your custom sign. Should your house number sign ever look a little dull, a fresh coat of varnish is all that's required to bring it up like new, unlike metal signs.

Hand Painted House Signs

The sign board is sealed and many layers of base colour are applied and sanded to provide the smooth surface necessary to produce highly detailed paintings.

Once completed, the painting is left to cure for 48 hours before being varnished to a nice gloss finish which also protects the house sign.
