FROM IDEA TO INSTALLATION

Custom Work, Made Simple.

Every Grainwell project is designed around your space, brand, timeline, and goals. We’ll walk you through each step, from concept and quoting to fabrication and final details.

HOW IT WORKS

Custom work, made simple.

A thoughtful step-by-step approach to custom signage, awards, and branded spaces.

Inquiry — Tell us about your project, space, timeline, and budget. Photos, measurements, inspiration images, and logo files are always helpful.

Meeting or Call — Based on your project, we usually can give a broad range. If needed, we are happy to come to your space for a field measure if necessary, or we can have you send us photos and measurements for the initial estimate. Most of the time a call suffices!

Estimate — Once we understand the scope, we’ll provide an estimate based on size, materials, design complexity, fabrication time, and installation needs.

Design + Proofing — After the estimate is approved, we’ll begin artwork after a $100-$350 art deposit depending on the scope and provide a digital proof. This is where we refine layout, scale, colors, materials, and overall direction.

Fabrication — Once the design is approved and the production deposit is received, your project moves into fabrication. Our team cuts, paints, engraves, prints, assembles, and finishes your piece in-house whenever possible.

Installation or Pickup — For signage and dimensional projects, we can coordinate installation when needed. Smaller awards, gifts, and personalized items can typically be picked up or shipped. We offer self install kits as well and clear install directions.

Final Details — We’ll make sure everything is finished, packaged, installed, or delivered with care.

Payment — Payment in full is due at time of completion, not necessarily install incase installation is delayed.

What helps us quote your project?

Timelines vary by project.

Most custom projects take a few weeks from approved artwork to completion, depending on size, materials, quantity, and our current production schedule. Rush options may be available when our schedule allows.
