Best Covington Sign Installation Company
Field Sign Partnerships Made EASY!
Our company specializes in sign installations helping your national clients expand thier brands into Louisiana & Southern Mississippi for over 30 years.
Working around local permit laws and ordinances is hard, but we make it easy!
We have been working in sign installation and maintenance for over 30 years, and our team has completed projects all across Covington, LA. We have handled installations and repairs for many large retail centers along HW190 as well as for many of the historic downtown storefronts. When you hire Alternative Signs, you are dealing with people who understand both the technical and and legal requirements of the job. We approach every project with the same mindset: a sign has to look good, it has to be structurally sound, and it has to meet code. There is no shortcut that replaces doing the job correctly the first time. That is the standard we operate by, and it is the reason our Covington clients call us back year after year.
What to Expect on a New Sign Installation
Every installation begins with a field survey, because proper planning prevents problems later. We take accurate measurements, assess mounting points, look for obstructions, and confirm the electrical path. Once we understand the site, we work with you to develop an installation plan that fits your branding needs and the physical limitations of your location. When the plan is approved, we move into permitting. Covington has its own process, and St. Tammany Parish has additional requirements that must be met before any sign or lighting system can be installed. We handle the paperwork for you, and we coordinate inspections so nothing slips through the cracks.
If your project requires a variance or a code exception, we can also guide you through that step. Our familiarity with the local authorities helps us anticipate structural reviews, lighting restrictions, and the timing of approvals. This makes a noticeable difference, especially for clients who are working toward a firm opening date.
As for installation itself, no job is too large for our team. We have put up channel letters, monument signs, tenant panels, and full facade systems throughout Covington. If the project calls for specialty equipment or a more involved lift plan, we are prepared for that as well. Our cranes reach the tallest buildings in the area, and our crew understands how to operate efficiently so your sign goes up cleanly, securely, and without complications during inspection.
Repairs and Service When You Need It
When a sign fails, there is no benefit in waiting. It affects visibility, brand perception, and sometimes even safety. We offer reliable sign repair and lighting maintenance in Covington, and our team is trained on LED systems, fluorescent and neon repairs, power supplies, ballasts, and more. If your parking lot lighting goes out, we can address that too. Good lighting protects your property and improves curb appeal; it also reduces energy consumption when we upgrade your older systems to LEDs.
Anyone who lives in Covington knows how rough hurricane season can be. We have seen signs blown loose, cabinets filled with water, wiring pulled apart, and poles shifted off-center after strong winds. We have also seen the stress that these situations create for the business owners themselves; so, when a major storm hits, we consider recovery our top priority. When the storm has passed, our crews are out there as soon as conditions allow stabilizing hazards, restoring lighting, and getting your signs working again. Moreover, when we rebuild or replace a damaged sign, we do it with Louisiana’s weather in mind to make sure it holds true against the next big one.
We keep common parts stocked, so most repairs are completed on the first visit. For more complex failures, we document the issue clearly and give you an quote before moving forward..
