DOWNTOWN SACRAMENTO · SACRAMENTO AREA
Job-Site Signs
in Downtown Sacramento.
Capitol offices, conventions, courthouses and event weekends. Downtown work is deadline work, and the deadline is usually somebody else’s.

Downtown Sacramento sends job-site signs work through this shop steadily, which is what you’d expect from somewhere about 6 miles from a print floor that closes at 5 and starts the same-day queue at 10. Free proof before anything runs, and a free reprint if we get an approved proof wrong.
Who this is for in Downtown Sacramento.
The businesses ordering job-site signs in Downtown Sacramento cluster into a few recognizable groups. Professional and government offices, churches, nonprofits and neighborhood groups chief among them.
Retractable-style event graphics, foam-board presentation boards, conference and booth signage, table banners, name badges and program booklets, plus the steady background hum of business cards and letterhead for offices that still hand people paper.
Rally and press-conference signage shows up on short notice more often downtown than anywhere else in the county, and that is a 10 AM conversation, not a 3 PM one.
Public agencies and their contractors order notice and project-information signage printed to a published specification.
Nonprofit and community build projects use the same kit, generally with donor and sponsor recognition added to it.
What it costs.
Rigid signs are priced by material: foam board $10, PVC $11, aluminum composite $13.50 per square foot. Banners for fencing run $6.
A 24×36 PVC site sign is 6 square feet, about $66. A 4×8 PVC panel is 32 square feet, about $352. A 3×8 fence banner is $144.
What’s quoted separately rather than posted: installation, special finishing, and design time if we’re building the artwork from scratch instead of printing a file you already have. You’ll get those numbers before we start, never after. See the posted list.
Before you order.
Order the fence banner at the same time as the rigid sign. Fencing is the largest continuous surface on most sites and the cheapest square footage you will ever advertise on. $6 per square foot, up in minutes with zip ties through the grommets.
Most cities and nearly every general contract require identification signage on an active site, and the specification usually comes from the jurisdiction or the GC rather than from you. Send the spec. Sizes, wording, license-number placement, and we print to it. Reprinting after an inspection is the expensive way to learn what it said.
Getting job-site signs from Downtown Sacramento.
About six miles from the shop: Capital City Freeway south, then into the grid on one of the numbered-street exits. Downtown parking is its own sport, which is exactly why so many downtown customers have us hold the order at the counter on Fulton and swing by on the way in. Front and rear parking, no garage ticket.
Standard rigid site signs ordered by 10:00 AM are usually finished the same afternoon. Installed and structural signage is scheduled. 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 Downtown Sacramento.
What size should a site sign be?
Whatever the jurisdiction or the general contract specifies. Check that first, because it usually dictates it. Where you have a choice, a 24×36 panel reads from the pavement and a 4×8 reads from the road; the arithmetic on PVC is about $66 and $352 respectively.
Can you print to our GC’s specification?
Yes. Send it. Most general contracts and most jurisdictions dictate size, wording and license-number placement for site identification. Printing to the spec the first time is far cheaper than reprinting after an inspection.
How far is the shop from Downtown Sacramento?
About 6 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 Downtown Sacramento?
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.
