Why Choose Slate for Your House Sign?

Slate has many reasons why it is a good choice for your house. Some of these, for instance, lie around:

Strength, Weather-Resistant & Durability

Slate is well renowned for its natural strength and longevity. This, unlike other materials, means that slate can easily withstand harsh weather conditions - from the pouring rain of winter to the scorching sun of summer - without fading or deteriorating.

This makes slate not only beautiful but also a durable, long-lasting choice for any home for years to come.

Personalisation Options

You can also custom engrave your sign with various fonts and styles to match your home's character, while making sure your sign as unique as you are.

Good Looking

Each slate sign we craft in-house here at House Name Plates carries a unique texture, with the classic grey tones providing you with a subtle yet striking aesthetic look to them.

This natural beauty then ensures that every sign is unique, giving your home a one-of-a-kind look and feel that will clearly stand out on your street.

Sustainably Sourced

Slate is also a sustainable choice, as it is extracted with minimal processing. Thus, when you choose a Slate House Sign, you are making an environmentally friendly decision by doing so.

Easy Installation

Each sign as well comes with all the necessary fittings for a hassle-free setup, and they are straightforward to install.

Installation Tips for Slate House Signs

Installing your Slate House Sign is surprisingly easy, and with the right tools, it can be securely mounted in no time at all. So, how do you install these signs?

Step 1: Choose the Right Location

You want to consider both visibility from the road and the aesthetic balance the sign will bring to your property - as well as how this will fit in with other elements on your home’s front.

Step 2: Measure Carefully

Once you have your location sorted, before drilling, make sure you measure the space and mark where the sign will go to ensure it is centred and level; and that you won't need to reposition it afterwards.

Use the Supplied Fixings

We provide high-quality fixings that are suitable for most wall types. For brick or masonry, use the plugs and screws included; for wooden surfaces, screws alone will tend to suffice.

Maintenance

Once installed, slate signs require little maintenance - that is all part of their charm after all. However, an occasional wipe down with a damp cloth can help maintain the slate's deep colour and keep the text more legible for longer.

How to Personalise Your Slate House Sign

Personalising your Slate House Sign is straightforward using our online personalisation tool on each listing page - with our range of options. These options, for instance, include:

Font Styles

From beautiful scripts from Goudy Old Style Demi to Trade Winds and more, or for a more traditional look, you could choose good old Times New Romen. So, select a font that complements your home’s architecture and your taste to create a custom look and feel for your slate sign.

Colour Fill Options

You can then choose from classic white, gold, or even more bespoke colours to fill the engraved numbers and letters, ensuring they are visible from afar and match your home’s exterior palette.

Shapes and Sizes

Whether you prefer the traditional rectangle, a sleek oval, or a more playful heart shape, our variety of shapes ensures you can find the perfect fit for your home’s style and space with no problem whatsoever.

What makes slate a good material for house signs?

As you can see above, slate is highly durable, weather-resistant, and maintains its natural colour - making it ideal for outdoor signs.

Furthermore, its fine grain provides you with a smooth finish for engravings, offering you a sign that is both legible and readable, while also giving you that classic aesthetic at the same time.

How long do Slate House Signs last?

Slate House Signs can last decades without significant wear. This is due to the Slate’s natural resistance to weather conditions. This means it does not fade, corrode, or deteriorate easily - ensuring you get an extended longevity out of your sign for years to come.

Can I customise my Slate House Sign?

Yes, you can personalise your slate house sign with various options, including different fonts and colours for the engraved text and a selection of shapes like rectangles, ovals, or bespoke designs to suit your personal style and home’s architecture.

Are Slate House Signs suitable for all types of homes?

Absolutely, they are. Slate House Signs, for instance, can complement any home, from both modern to traditional styles, thanks to their natural beauty and the variety of customisation options we make available to you, to make your sign exactly how you want it.

How is the text added to the slate sign?

We engrave the text to ensure precise and clean cuts. You can also choose to have the engraving left natural or filled with weather-resistant paint for enhanced visibility and contrast as well.

How do I maintain my Slate House Sign?

Slate House Signs are very low-maintenance. To keep your sign looking its best, simply wipe it down with a damp cloth occasionally to remove dirt or debris. However, make sure you avoid using harsh chemicals, which can damage the Slate.

Can Slate House Signs withstand extreme weather conditions?

Yes, slate is an excellent material for all weather conditions and is ideal for this purpose.

For instance, it is naturally resistant to frost, heat, and water, make it an ideal choice for the variable UK climate.
