Proper Signage

Matt at Proper Signage was easy to communicate with from the start, provided a timely and fair quote for our sign, and scheduled with us right away. He came on time, prepared, and helped us decide the very best way to implement our signage. His hand-​painted work turned out incredible professional and everyone in the office loves how much it adds to the atmosphere. We will definitely be calling Proper Signage if we need more in the future!

I work for a contemporary art gallery in Culver City and since we opened up our space, we’ve used Matt exclusively for all our signage, and he’s never let us down! He painted our large exterior sign perfectly when we first opened with our text/​logo (which is somewhat tricky). And we have him cut and install our vinyl lettering for inside our exhibition space every month. The final result is always perfect and he most importantly has a super fast turn-​around. We’ve had him cut vinyl letters for an art piece and have them ready within a few hours! We often don’t need things that quickly, but it’s fantastic when you’re on a deadline and you need quality work fast and at a reasonable price.
His pricing and skill really can’t be beat. We used to use one of those chain-​store sign companies and they pale in comparison and were so overpriced.
We highly recommend his work for any art gallery looking for a consistent sign maker.

Matt was awesome to work with. He responded to my inquiry the same day and was able to paint our company logo a few days after we confirmed the details. The painted logo he did for us was perfect!

Called Matt 3 days before we needed a 20ft long sign painted on the side of the building for a grand opening party.
He shoved aside some other projects, came out and measured our walls and came over with a crew to finish just hours before the party began. Totally appreciate his willingness to get this done so fast and give us a great price along with suggestions on the best size for our space. Not to mention he had to work close to a power line we didn’t even consider would be a problem (total safety hazard-​definitely warn him if you have one close to the space you are painting!!)
He made my boss super happy so he made me happy :) Highly recommend his work!

Beyond happy! Matt made a beautiful decal on my door, it exceeded my expectations, as his creative input was invaluable. And his attitude, communication, and quality of work are impeccable. Thank you, Matt!

Just moved my martial arts business to a new location and was referred to Matt at Proper Signage by my neighbor. Turns out Matt has provided his services to several establishments nearby and they all look great. He came in, gave me a way better price than a competitor, and then finished the job in one day. He was quick, to the point, and got the job done and now I have a beautiful sign to attract new customers. The sign is just one day old and I’ve already gotten tons of positive feedback. Thanks Matt! We are very happy with our sign.

I called in because I had a mural I wanted painted on the wall of my gym. Matt came out and gave me a rough estimate, even threw in some creative feedback and came back a few days later and hammered out some beautiful text on my wall. Folks see it in pictures and think I digitally added it to the photos.
I asked him paint a sign on the front of my gym as well, but again after his consultation, he suggested an actual laser cut sign. We discussed size and font and a few days later, he came back a crushed it again. I am a small business owner and he really helped me step up the look of my business to a professional level.
Now that I have experienced his work, I find myself thinking of ways I can get him to come back for more projects!
He hit a home run. I was already sold on his work by the pictures posted on this page… But his professionalism and work efforts really took the whole experience above and beyond expectations.
If I could give more than 5 stars, I would.
Take a bow, sir! You’ve done well!

Last March, Permanent Records LA decided to make the move to York Blvd. I did some Google-​ing for a sign painter for our new location. I wanted someone good of course, but it was excellent that Matt was local as well. After some digging and several frustrating phone calls I phone Proper Signage. Matt, the owner, gave me a fantastic quote on my design and was able to fit us into his hectic schedule. The turn around time was exceptional (2 days!) and the sign turned out better than I ever could’ve hoped for!
We love our new location here in Highland Park and feel Matt’s sign definitely does it’s job. It looks SO amazing! Without Proper Signage I’m not sure what we would have been stuck with. Thanks Matt and co.!!

Matt Shirey and his team — all I can say is, amazing! He came in on time, on budget, and the work is stellar. If you’re looking for signage of any sort, from hand painting to vinyl, you’d be hard-​pressed to do any better than Proper Signage. Guys — thank you! Really!

Amazing job. Had this painter paint my company logo on my building. Great work ethics very clean very fast. Nice guy all around and I would recommend any day of the week

One word… Amazing! So when opening our first business, we knew a great sign was the best way to get people’s attention. So I went to my trusty Unilocal app to help me find someone to do our sign. But not just any signs, I wanted old school, hand painted signs. Well I stumbled upon Proper Signage /​Matt and thank god I did!!! He was fantastic from beginning to end! He was flexible with meeting times and last minute requests. (The first signs were so good I wanted more signs lol) he was very precise with his work, measuring out and centering everything. He has a natural artistic talent that I wish I had. I would recommend him to any and everybody. My barbershop has been opened for almost a week and I get multiple complements a day about how great the sign and window decals are. I’m already thinking of future projects for him.

Matt does some really great work! His prices are very reasonable. It was very easy getting my vision across to him and he delivered a beautifully hand painted sign. I couldn’t be more excited with how it makes my business look. Already planning on him doing my next project. Thank you Matt!

Matt of Proper Signage was responsive, quick and did excellent work. The estimate he gave me over the phone was reasonable and he held to it even though I think the job turned out to be a bit more difficult than either of us contemplated. I would definitely recommend him and use him again if the need arises

I found Matt through a customer of ours and was excited to see what his work would look like on our building. Blown away compared to what was there already! Excellent work, and never any surprises witch I like. If you need a sign for your business or whatever! proper signage is the call you need to make.

Matt @ Proper Signage just painted my outdoor sign for my new Pilates studio I just opened. He did an amazing job. He came up with a great design. The sidewalk is treacherous and the space for the sign was very tight but he managed to make the sign pop and look great.
