Alex was very easy to work with - he's local, all the other vinyl sign companies I called to put a sign on my car are actually in Sacramento or San Jose, he's affordable and he is prompt.
When we got my signs on and realized part of the sign would look better in another color he offered to do the touch up work for free. It was my design and I was to blame but he's making it right. That's why you should support small business in your community.
Anytime I need a sign I am getting it made by Alex. -

Our office needed a reception sign produced and installed on on a very short timeframe for our holiday party. I called multiple vendors in town that could not commit to getting it done in time.
Alex of Alex's Signs Co was very upfront with me about his timeframe, saying that he could not guarantee the sign would be finished in time but he would do his very best. He helped us decide what type of materials we should use and allowed me and my management team to drop by his shop twice to look at different colored vinyls. Very professional and very responsive.
I totally recommend Alex's Signs Co and would use his services again. -

Alex just completed three beautiful signs for my new office (exterior bldg. sign, window sign, interior door plaque). He not only did a fanstastic job, but he was helpful, quick, stayed within my budget, and was overall very enjoyable to work with. I had some ideas of the look that I wanted and Alex greatly improved upon them without changing the style that I was going for. I hope that my business does well enough that I can hire him again to design and install another sign for me! I highly recommend him.

I was tasked with finding a sign company that was local, reputable, reasonably priced and, could turn around at least an estimate on several options of signage. Alex was the only person (out of four) to get me prices within minutes. Since hiring him for the signs, the company I worked for, Gallery Arcane, continue to go to Alex lettering work. I have hired him for my own projects which have included custom font work and, he has been helpful in working with me, even offering suggestions, when potential problems have arose. I will continue to use this company for future projects.

I've done business with Alex for over ten years, and in all that time he has never once let me down, flaked, been late, or overcharged me. He always gives you a good deal, extremely professional, good natured and an all-round upright guy.
He's a one-man operation that's been in business for close to thirty years, and has a wealth of experience that helps him work with you to make your signage the best it could possibly be. He'll do photo signage, magnetic, vinyl, banner, neon, on everything from cars to windows - you name it, he's done it. -

Alex is awesome. He has top notch equipment, is enormously patient, and has been doing this forever so he absolutely knows what works. Plus, he gave me the best quote in town and went above and beyond to deliver. Go here. Tell your friends. Make up reasons to have signs made. Really, he's awesome!

I own a small business in San Francisco and was trying to figure out a way to advertise my business and thought using my van as a "rolling advertisement" would be a great idea. I went through the yellow pages and called several places to inquire about getting a full vehicle wrap. After finding out how many thousands of dollars I would have to shell out for this, I decided to try and come up with some decal advertising ideas that would look good on the side of my van, but would better fit my budget. I was really amazed at how rude these other companies were to me - didn't seem to have time for me and did not seem to care what I wanted, if I wasn't going to spend megabucks or if they were expected to help me to design from scratch. Finally, I found Alex's Sign Company and made an appointment to talk with him about my van. I was pleasantly surprised at how he quickly understood my needs and helped me to come up with the cutest logos, etc for the side of my van in a price range that fit my budget. Alex is very patient and seems to really care if the customer is happy. He sat with me at his computer and we designed the decals together, right then and there! He is so knowledgeable and has been doing this so long that he could tell me what was going to work and what wasn't. To heck with all these other sign companies - Alex is the best - because he knows what he is doing and he treats his customers right. He is a genuinely nice person and that makes the process much, much easier because he builds trust with his clients as he guides you through the process, which can be truly difficult to do for someone like me, who is clearly not a professional designer. Other sign companies won't "waste" their time to help you to achieve what you really want. They will brush you off if you are not sure what you want or if you don't want to spend megabucks, or they will try to shove a design down your throat, and then charge you for it, even if you hate the images they have chosen!

We were establishing a new business in San Francisco and needed a number of different signs- Alex was incredibly helpful in working through the options and produced a great result at a very reasonable price. I would have no hesitation in recommending him

We recently had another sign done by Alex for our front door, showing our hours of operation. It came out perfect the way we wanted and was done in a day. What more can you ask for??

Alex has provided service to the Red and White Fleet for quite a few years now. He has done all kinds of signs, anything from hang up signs to frames on buses. I cannot begin to tell you the stunning quality of his works , and friendly nature we have experienced. Once you step into the sign shop you instantly feel as though you are welcome, not to mention that he is super friendly and has a one on one relationship with each and every one of his clients-unlike other companies where you have to go through different people to get to the right person, and there end up being miscommunications along the way. Alex` s Sign Company is the place for all your signs. The prices are very reasonable-he does not charge you an arm and a leg as do many other companies. Aside from making good signs alex will also take time to sit down with you and design your sign by offering friendly advice, samples, color coordination, and he can even create a design for you if you dont know what you want yet. Alex has done many signs that you would see around the city such as numerous Red and White Fleet signs, the Red and White Fleet signage on back of the City Sightseeing double decker bus tour, a sign for Kaiser, Alioto` s, and many more businesses. What` s amazing is that if you look at signs that have been done 5-10 years ago by Alex they look almost brand new, as they are able to withstand the detrimental effects of the weather.
All in all the Red and White Fleet gives Alex`s Sign Company 5+ starts due to the superior quality of the signs, his hardworking and patient nature, as well as the excellent customer service he provides. Try it, you wont regret it!
