01-13-2023Monument signs are a mainstay for established brands, big businesses, hospitals, and other high-authority institutions in Houston, TX, but they work equally well for new, small and medium-sized companies who want to convey quality and longevity at-a-glance.
If you’ve ever thought about ordering custom monument signs, you’ve come to the right place. Read on to learn about their unique benefits for local branding, wayfinding, and sales promotion, or call (713)-244-8704 to speak with a monument sign specialist in Houston, TX.
So what are monument signs, exactly, and what makes them such a boon for local businesses?
Section 90-2 of the Houston sign code defines monument signs as “freestanding signs mounted on a concrete or masonry pedestal permanently attached to the ground and having no open space between the pedestal and the display area.”
Though useful for permitting purposes, Houston’s sign code fails to mention the unique benefits of monument signs, which include:
In fact, depending on your business location, monument signs may be your only viable option for boosting roadside visibility—for example, if your business is located on Category A streets, such as the Carter Moore Drive Scenic Corridor, the Houston sign code states that “no freestanding signs other than monument signs are permitted.”
Each of these different monument sign classes comes with different restrictions, permitting requirements, costs, and material options, but they’re all extremely customizable when you work with our team. Choose from a variety of colors, materials (e.g. wood, brick, concrete, metal, carved foam, HDU, etc), and illumination options, and we will bring your vision to life!
If you want to leverage these benefits for your business and make a monumental impact in your community, Houston Graphic Signs is here to help!

My overall experience with these guys is great! Keith is the person that helped me, and Brent is the one did the install. It was a little difficult due to my building structure, but they got it done. I will def use HGS again for my future projects ;)

Houston Graphic Signs have now done 2 of my staffing offices and they made the process so quick and easy. The products turned out beautifully and their customer service was outstanding. If we open additional offices or need other signs, we will definitely be a repeat customer!!

I was tasked with locating a sign company to refurbish our company's sign. It was an interesting process, but when I finally found Houston Graphic Signs, it was smooth sailing from there. Michelle was incredibly responsive and helpful. She was with me every step of the way and had the way and was easy to communicate with. They took our requests and provided a great visual representation as well as another nice design idea that we hadn't thought of. The final product was installed and done within 30 minutes. Installers were early for the appointment and pleasant to deal with. I highly recommend HGS for a great product and smooth process. Thank you so much for making our sign pretty again.

Our sign was delayed due to availability of materials. Once the materials were in, though, my sign was built and installed in no time at all. I highly recommend this company and will use them again.

Adam Davidson Aug 8, 2021
I had a great experience with Michelle at HGS. We we're in a huge time crunch to get our signage created in time for an upcoming tradeshow. I supplied HGS with the art, and unfortunately we had some issues with my files. HGS was able to re-create the artwork AND print my signage in less than a week. Top notch communication and exceptional prices. Can't recommend them enough.
Gus Wolk Aug 8, 2021
My experience with Houston Graphic Signs was nothing but amazing. Their team was efficient and helpful throughout the design and printing process. The vinyl graphics they printed for my company were exactly what we envisioned. I highly recommend HGS for all your printing needs!

Houston Graphic Signs is by far the best sign company in Houston, I am an assistant to a large local real estate brokerage in the area. We had an emergency regarding the HOA size requirements for a yard sign for one of our top agents about a year ago and Houston Graphic Signs were the only sign company able to expediate the sign and have it delivered asap! (believe me I probably called every sign company in Houston for help and Houston Graphic Signs were the only company that got it done) I have been working with Houston Graphic Signs for over a year now they produced high quality signs for our top producing agents (around 300) and worked with me regarding the art work and spreadsheets. Houston Graphics Signs always checks for errors on the art work to insure high quality. Michelle Mason who is one of the owners is always available! She always goes above and beyond even working late into the evening and weekends to assure our products arrive on time. You will not go wrong using Houston Graphic signs if you want high quality material priced at a competitive rate as well as top notch service. Thank you for everything Houston Graphic Signs Michelle Nagler

This company is fantastic. The design department was very receptive to our ideas for our logo. They were quick to offer suggestions for ways to make our company logo memorable. They offered multiple designs for us and were quick to present any changes that were made. They were very accommodating to our schedule for the installation on our truck. If you are looking for great service and a quality product, you need to look no further than Houston Graphic Sign Company. They will be doing all of our future graphic projects.
Timothy Winters Jun 6, 2021
The owner communicated with me on the order. It was awesome customer service and I highly recommend them. Delivery was quick, too.

Houston Graphic Signs is a fantastic business with amazing customer service and a fast turnaround! Michelle was extremely helpful and communicated with me every step of the way. I ordered a yard sign to announce my son's graduation from college and it is much nicer and bigger than I expected! It was also packed with great care which tells me how much they value their customers. I will definitely give Houston Graphic Signs more business in the future!
Liana Young Apr 4, 2021
We had an outstanding experience with our signs! HGS made decals for the sides of our trucks. Brent helped us with creating the right electronic file from one of our old files. Michelle has been proactive in her communications. Quality is far better than we have received from other sign companies. HGS will be our permanent sign company going forward!
Jason Bagley Mar 3, 2021
Went to Houston Graphic Signs to repair our sign. Another company did a poor install, but Houston Graphic Sign knew what they were doing and quickly got our sign looking good again.

Houston Graphic Signs Company is such a great company to work with! I subcontracted them for a signage and wall graphic installation project I had in Houston and they have done a fabulous job. Very prompt responses and communication, great client service, and flexible to on-site changes. Would highly recommend!

janell breen Dec 12, 2020
Wonderful experience! Price was competitive, customer service and quality of work was better than expected. I had to replace a store front sign just and these folks went out of there way to make sure they understood what I wanted and exceeded expectations at every point of the process.

They made a custom yard sign for me very quickly. It was affordable, well made, and exactly what I was looking for. I have had several neighbors comment on it andI happily yell them where I got it. I would use Houston Graphic signs again without hesitation for any signage needs.

I was impressed with the array and caliber of work that Houston Graphics Signs does and love supporting a local, business that does much of the work in-house, so you know where your “stuff” is and you know it will be done right. I recommend Houston Graphic Signs. Michelle Mason is fantastic at helping you update your signs to get brighter up or help you make what you have stand out increasing visibility. You will be pleased to work with HGS
Cherryl Finney Oct 10, 2020
Shopped many sign companies and prices were outrageous came across Houston graphics and went to visit them to get a feel for their work and was so happy with atmosphere. They treat you like they have known you for years and the work was beyond outstanding. Highly recommend them to any business that needs high quality and great prices.
Ricky Jordan Oct 10, 2020
We had several requests that were needed in a short amount of time. Michelle and her team were professional and exceeded the planned timeline for all the materials. We were very happy with the service and look forward to working with them in the future.

Amazing Customer Service! Brent printed my signs for me in One Day Thank you!
Chevonne Marie Jun 6, 2020
We ordered a sign to commemorate our son graduation from JH. Houston Graphic Designs did an amazing job. From ordering to completion and pick up it was a smooth process. We are very pleased with the looks and with the quality of our sign. In fact, we placed it in our front yard and right after it rained non stop for 12 hours. The sign though withstood the inclement weather without any damage. Nice product at a great price!
Monica Jung May 5, 2020
Houston Graphic Signs has been super helpful with all my requests. They are efficient, good pricing, and deliver on time. Love the business cards and graduating senior signs they made for me!
Sonia Dang May 5, 2020
HGS did a fantastic job with our club. We worked closely with the team and the owners to come up with a design that turned out better than we expected. HGS was very responsive to any changes or tweaks we required. We had several renderings before we settled on the final design. The install took less than a day to complete. All in all...very impressed and will always come back to HGS in the future. Many thanks!!!
