Ardor Printing is a sign company serving Everett businesses, but our shop is not in Everett.

Yard signs, A-frames and parking signs are easy to pick up at the shop. For building, post and lobby signs, our crew comes to you and installs on-site.

Do you need a sign permit in Everett?

Yes, for most permanent signs. Here is a plain-English summary of Everett Municipal Code 19.36; rules change, so confirm with Everett Permit Services before you order or install.

  • A permit is required before any sign is erected, re-erected, structurally altered or relocated (EMC 19.36.020). Apply through Permit Services at 3200 Cedar St; illuminated signs also need an electrical permit.
  • Any sign within 660 ft of I-5 may also need WSDOT approval (WAC 468-66), which the applicant must get first.
  • Portable sandwich-board signs need no permit if they comply: max 8 sq ft per side and 42 in tall, one per business, non-illuminated, business hours only, directly in front of the business, and only in sign categories A and B. Public sidewalks need a 6-ft clear pedestrian zone, and the owner must give the city a hold-harmless document (EMC 19.36.050).
  • Window signs may cover up to 25% of window area and don't count toward wall-sign area. A banner on nonresidential property is limited to one per tenant space, max 32 sq ft, 30 days per 365 days (EMC 19.36.060).
  • Wall signs are based on 15% of the facade, with category caps up to 300 sq ft in category A. Freestanding signs go up to 150 sq ft and 25 ft in category A (EMC 19.36.040). Roof signs and moving, rotating or animated signs are prohibited.

Signs on business vehicles: Everett exempts lettering on licensed, operating vehicles from its sign permit rules. Vehicles or trailers parked mainly to display a sign are prohibited. For truck lettering and fleet graphics, see vehicle wraps in Everett.

Everett custom sign FAQs

Is Ardor Printing a sign company that serves Everett?

Yes. Ardor Printing is a sign company serving Everett businesses from our shop in Snohomish, about 13 miles from downtown Everett. We make aluminum and Dibond signs, acrylic lobby signs, safety, parking and wayfinding signs, monument sign panels, coroplast yard signs and A-frames, and our own crew installs building, post and panel signs in Everett, including lift work. Quotes are free, and so are on-site estimates for signs.

Do you have a sign shop in Everett?

No. Our shop is in Snohomish, about 13 miles from downtown Everett. Pick up there Monday to Friday, 7am to 5pm, or have us deliver and install your sign in Everett.

How much do custom signs cost in Everett?

Each sign is quoted on its own. The price depends on size, material, quantity, custom cutting and whether we install it. Quotes are free, and so are on-site estimates for signs.

What is the best material for an outdoor sign?

For most outdoor business signs we recommend Dibond, an aluminum composite that is rigid, weather resistant and stays flat. Solid aluminum suits parking and safety signs. Coroplast costs less and works for yard signs and temporary signs.

Do you install signs in Everett?

Yes. Our own crew installs building signs, post and panel signs, wall signs and sign panels in Everett and across Snohomish County, including lift work. Installed signs carry a 1-year limited installation warranty.

Do I need a permit for a sign in Everett?

For many signs, yes. Everett's sign code requires a city permit before a sign is erected, attached, structurally altered or relocated, with listed exemptions, and illuminated signs also need an electrical permit. The submittal checklist asks for a site plan and building elevations, plus engineering calcs for pole, cantilevered, hanging and high-rise wall signs. Compliant sandwich boards need no permit. A sign within 660 feet of I-5 may also need state approval. Read Everett Municipal Code 19.36.020 and confirm with the city before you order.

Do signs near I-5 in Everett need WSDOT approval?

They may. Everett's sign code says any sign within 660 ft of I-5 may also need WSDOT approval under WAC 468-66, and the applicant must get that approval first, before the city sign permit. That can affect any business with a freestanding or wall sign close to the freeway. Check your distance from I-5 early, and confirm current requirements with Everett Permit Services and WSDOT before ordering.
