Sign Company Tucson: Design, Fabrication, Installation, Repair and Permits Under One Roof

Addisigns is a locally owned sign company in Tucson. Tom Addis, a sign painter by trade, started the business in 1955.

More than 70 years later, we still design, build, permit, install and service commercial signs from our shop on East 38th Street.

One team handles your project from the first sketch to the final electrical connection. That means fewer hand-offs, fewer surprises and one number to call. We work across Tucson, Phoenix and all of Southern Arizona, and we ship signs nationwide for multi-location businesses.

What We Do

Every Sign Service, One Tucson Shop

From the first drawing to years of upkeep, each step is handled by the Addisigns team.

Sign Design

Our in-house designers create logo and signage concepts and the drawings that guide every build. We look at your building, your street and your brand, then show you how the sign will look before anything is made. Good design is about more than looks. Letter height, contrast and lighting decide whether a driver can read your name in time to turn in. We also match the sign type to what your site and local code allow, so the design you approve is one that can be permitted and built. Learn more about custom sign design.

Sign Fabrication

We build signs in our U.L.-certified manufacturing facility in Tucson, using current industry hardware and software. Channel letters, monument signs, pylon signs, cabinet signs and more are cut, formed, painted and wired by our own team. Building in-house lets us control quality and keep your project on track. Every sign is checked before it leaves the shop. Our signs are made to hold up to Arizona sun, heat and monsoon storms. For businesses with several locations, we can build matching signs and ship them nationwide. See how we handle sign fabrication.

Sign Installation

Our installation fleet includes crane trucks, ladder trucks, bucket trucks, man-lifts and JLGs in several sizes. That range lets us reach a rooftop sign, a tall pylon or a storefront fascia with the right equipment. Licensed electricians handle the electrical connections. We plan each install around the site so the job goes in safely and cleanly. Our crews work throughout Tucson, Phoenix and the rest of Southern Arizona. Read more about sign installation.

Site Surveys

Before many projects, we visit the site to measure and document what is there. Our site surveys are accurate and on time, and they help with branding updates, name change-overs and sign refurbishments.

Sign Repair & Maintenance

A dark letter or a faded face sends the wrong message. We handle everything from replacing a bulb to a full refurbishment. That includes neon repair, LED retrofits for older lighted signs and refurbishing signs that have been in the sun for years. Maintenance plans keep a sign working between visits: we check electrical components, clean the faces and make adjustments. If a sign is starting to look tired, a service visit is often the fastest fix. Find out more about sign repair and maintenance.

Sign Permitting

Most commercial signs need a permit, and every city has its own rules. Our in-house permit specialist handles permits and variances. Addisigns has worked with Southern Arizona municipalities for more than 60 years, so we know what each jurisdiction expects to see. We prepare the paperwork, answer questions from the city and keep your project moving. If your sign needs a variance, we can help you make the case. Learn how our sign permitting service works.
