Frequently Asked Questions

  • Extreme Signs are based on Calmore Industrial Estate in Totton, a couple minutes off the M27.

    Most signwriting and wrap takes place at our workshop, but we do work with trade partners such as dealerships to complete your branding before the vehicle is collected.

  • Prices range from £50 to £4500. And everywhere in between.

    At the bottom end you would be looking at a simple name/logo on the cab doors, and at the top end are printed wraps.

  • Yes. Magnetics are a great solution for temporary marking. Shaped or tailored magnetic signs are available.

    But for a permanent application you should opt for conventional signage as 'magnetics' are not designed to be left on paintwork.

  • Yes we can, Extreme charge £50/hour to remove signage/wrap (including glue removal). Estimates can be provided before we begin.

    Removing a vinyl wrap or lettering is easy: You just need to warm the vinyl and peel. Its not a quick process, but does not need to be carried out by professionals.

    In spring, summer and autumn months the sun will warm the vinyl enough to remove, but in the winter you will need to warm the area with either a heat gun, hair dryer, or by pouring hot (not boiling) water over it.

    Its important not to overheat the material as this will boil the wrap and 'cook' the adhesive. Just warm enough to feel 'hot' with your hand.

  • Wrap is the process of totally covering a vehicle, or parts of a vehicle in vinyl. Vehicle graphics can be a number of things, but primarily cut vinyl shapes, logos or designs applied to the paintwork.

  • Yes! You'll want to use a removable vinyl, and ideally a design that'll avoid ghosting after removal.

    All our fleet/van-sign materials are manufactured with removable adhesive and regularly work with fleet leasing agents/dealerships throughout the south to service their customers.

  • It all depends on the nature of your work. If you are working on the highway, you'll need chapter-8 markings (visit our dedicated page for more info).

    But if you are simply working from your van its unlikely you will need reflective markings.

  • Extreme know you need your van, we want to minimise the time its off the road as much as possible.

    For conventional signwriting and part wraps we can complete in a matter of hours.

    For colour change wraps we ask for the vehicle to be left at our Southampton workshop for 5 working days, but often the work is completed within 4.

  • Less is always more when you're driving down the M27 or stuck on the A34. To ensure your signage works the headlines must be clear: Company name, Headline service and web address. Other information you may like to display include accreditations, telephone numbers and sub-services. Though most interested customers will head over to your website for more information.
