Who this is for in Davis.
The businesses ordering banners in Davis cluster into a few recognizable groups. Churches, nonprofits and neighborhood groups, schools, boosters and youth sport, events, venues and community organizations chief among them.
Student and campus groups order event banners, table signage, and shirts.
Davis is a university town: campus organizations, a bicycle-and-downtown retail culture, restaurants, farmers-market and event activity, and research and agricultural businesses around the edges.
Churches, nonprofits and neighborhood groups are heavy banner buyers because the message changes with the season and the budget rarely stretches to permanent signage.
School and booster banners (fundraisers, senior nights, field sponsors, registration drives) run on a calendar that repeats every year, so the artwork stays on file.
Event and venue banners are the bulk of it: entrance signage, sponsor walls, stage backdrops, and directional banners for anything with a gate.
What it costs.
Vinyl banners are posted at $6 per square foot, hemmed and grommeted: the finishing is in the price, not added afterwards.
Multiply width by height in feet: a 2×4 is $48, a 3×6 is $108, a 3×8 is $144, a 4×10 is $240.
Nothing is charged before you’ve approved a free proof, and if we get an approved proof wrong we reprint it free. Every rate is published, so the only surprise should be how quickly it’s ready.
The part worth knowing.
If the install is unusual (pole pockets for a hanging banner, mesh for an exposed fence line that catches the valley wind, reinforced corners for a long run) say so when you order. Those are decisions better made before we print than discovered afterwards.
Never staple a banner through the middle of the material: the first gust tears it from the staple. Tie through the grommets, and if it’s hanging from a pole rather than tied, ask for pole pockets instead. Different construction, same principle: attach to the finishing, not to the print.
Getting banners from Davis.
Davis is west across the causeway on I-80: a straightforward drive, but plan it rather than counting on a last-minute dash.
Most banners ordered before 10:00 AM Monday to Friday are finished the same afternoon. If the drive is the awkward part rather than the deadline, ask about delivery when you place the order. It’s available on many jobs, though for a genuinely same-day deadline collecting at the counter is still fastest.
Questions we get from Davis.
Do you do double-sided banners?
Yes, and they’re worth it when the banner hangs free where people pass on both sides. Against a wall or a fence, one side is all anyone will ever see.
Can you print a banner from a photo I took?
Sometimes. It depends on resolution. Aim for around 300 dpi at the printed size; a phone photo often has enough for a modest banner and nowhere near enough for a 4×10. Send it and we’ll tell you honestly before it prints rather than after.
How far is the shop from Davis?
About 19 miles. We’re at 1835 Fulton Ave, Sacramento, CA 95825, Monday to Friday, 9:00 AM to 5:00 PM, with parking in front and more in the rear.
Is it worth coming to Fulton Avenue from Davis?
Customers do it, and the reasons show up in their reviews: the prices are posted, the work is made on site, and same-day means today rather than the middle of next week. If a given order doesn’t justify the drive, ask about delivery.
