I have been producing signs, hand painted projects, and restorations since 1984. I enjoy working with a huge range of colourful enamel paints, pure gold leaf, and quality sable hair brushes in the traditional way. Traditional doesn’t mean old fashioned, however! I can signwrite on almost any surface from wood to stone, interior or exterior. I produce signs in modern, traditional, and contemporary

designs. Traditional signwriting is used in conservation areas, on heritage buildings, in restaurants, hotels, sports clubs, homes, and much more. For quirky signs, house signs, shop fascias, A boards, directional signs, menu boards, blackboards, scoreboards, vehicles, interior signwriting, honours and scholarship boards, and restorations of various kinds. For more information please contact me. I am passionate about making your signage look good.

A few years ago, we were asked to gild a new entrance sign for the internal doorway at the Bath Pump room.
Finally in 2026 we have managed to visit The Pump Room in Bath and take an image of the gilded sign in place above the internal entrance door.

During 2025 we have been asked to carry out some very interesting commissions, one of which was the re-instatement of a poem and a very interesting design up the spiral stairs in a grade 2 listed gothic manor, after some remedial work on the walls had been carried out.
The first step was to take a complete tracing of the design and poem, prior to the repairs being carried out, the tracing was interesting in itself as due to the wall being almost a full rotation and the design following the rise of the stairs, we had to cut each section of the tracing paper into 30cm strips overlapping each one slightly and marking each one with reference points.
Initially it was thought the complete wall would require re-instatement but only patch repairs were required, this meant when the tracings were put back on the wall extra care is required so that everything is aligned with the remaining design.
With each alternate letter and motif being in red or blue, it required immense concentration to ensure everything is correct.
On completion we were very proud to receive the following from our client.
“Really delighted with the work that Carole has done - it far exceeded my expectations, and she went above and beyond what she quoted to do. Nothing was too much trouble. I would have no hesitation in recommending her”

Today we had a few hours away from work and visited the Yeo Valley Organic Garden Festival at Holt farm just outside Bladgon over looking Blagdon lake.
It was nice to see some of our recent work in situ and some past work in its final location.
We listened to an interesting talk by Francis Tophill on the subject of right and wrong when gardening.

Great to visit a beautiful garden too, right on our doorstep.

Paul and Carole.
