Business Signs They Remember

At Sign Artist we create and install great signs that turn heads, captivate customers, and generate business.

 

Sign Artist gave a yellowed, 20-ft pylon sign at Elmhurst Auto Care on busy North Avenue a face-lift, earning the attention of potential customers.

Greg DeWitt, owner of Granite Transformations, appreciates these sleek banners with sturdy carrying bags, and the new perforated logos on the windows of his two work vans.

Our Sign Artist truck displays the type of vehicle wrap Sign Artist can do for your car, van or box truck, generating great visibility and new customers!

Sign Artist arrived at dawn to install this striking, acrylic sign at the Chicago Bar Association, cleaning up and clearing out before lawyers and clients began their day.

Creativity. Craftsmanship. Quality.

These are the pillars of our work at Sign Artist. As a family owned and operated business located in Bensenville, we work collaboratively with each of our clients, and listen closely to their needs. We blend art, design, and implementation into a seamless process that produces striking results and customers that return again and again.

Let’s Talk

 

We were looking to have a new pole sign for our business and Ed and his crew at Sign Artist did an unbelievable job. I would recommend them to anyone for the smallest of jobs to the largest, they won’t let you down.

Ed C., Owner, Elmhurst Auto Care

 

Absolutely love how the sign turned out. Ed was very helpful and patient. He answered all my questions and concerns. I would recommend them to anyone looking for signs.
