Clear, professional signage plays a vital role in how customers perceive a business. Whether it’s a storefront, office, or vehicle, signs communicate your brand, build trust, and drive foot traffic. But creating effective signage takes more than a good idea—it takes expertise. That’s where working with a sign expert can make all the difference.
First impressions matter. A faded, poorly designed, or improperly installed sign can send the wrong message to potential customers. On the other hand, a well-crafted sign creates a sense of credibility, professionalism, and attention to detail.
A sign expert understands how to design signage that aligns with your brand identity, targets the right audience, and works in your specific industry. From font size and layout to color choice and readability, professionals apply their knowledge to create signs that actually work—both visually and functionally.
Creating signs without proper knowledge can lead to expensive errors. Whether it’s incorrect measurements, poor material selection, or missing compliance with local codes, even small mistakes can cause delays or rework.
Sign experts help businesses avoid these problems by handling every detail with precision. They know the rules and regulations in your area, including ADA and municipal signage requirements. They ensure that your signs not only look good but are also legal and safe to display. That prevents fines, delays, and unnecessary reprinting costs.
Designing a sign is just one piece of the puzzle. Permitting, approvals, production timelines, and installation also take time—especially if you are unfamiliar with the process.
A professional sign expert saves you time by managing the entire workflow from start to finish. They can provide initial consultation, handle design approvals, file permit applications, and coordinate installation seamlessly. By working with someone who knows the process inside and out, your signage project moves faster and avoids unnecessary delays.
TM Signs and Graphics offers turnkey solutions that remove the burden from your team, allowing you to focus on running your business while your signage is handled by experts.
Not all sign materials are created equal. Choosing the wrong type of vinyl, metal, or acrylic can result in signs that fade, peel, or deteriorate quickly—especially in extreme weather conditions.
Sign experts recommend and use high-quality, durable materials based on your specific environment and usage. Whether it’s indoor office signage or outdoor monument signs, professionals ensure the materials meet your needs and hold up over time. This not only improves your brand presentation but also saves money on repairs and replacements.
TM Signs and Graphics uses eco-friendly, solvent-free equipment and materials that stand up to time and the elements. It’s an investment in quality that delivers results long after installation.
It’s not just what your sign says—it’s where and how it’s placed that truly makes it effective. A sign expert understands sightlines, traffic flow, and environmental factors that impact visibility.
They know how to maximize impact by placing your signage at optimal angles and heights. For storefronts, they consider foot traffic and vehicle movement. For interior signs, they guide placement that enhances customer experience and brand storytelling. This level of strategy isn’t guesswork—it’s informed by experience.
The result is signage that gets noticed, remembered, and acted on by potential customers.
Some business owners are tempted to cut costs by choosing the cheapest signage solution available. Unfortunately, those savings are often short-lived. Low-cost materials, design shortcuts, or skipped permitting can lead to repairs, replacements, or worse—lost business opportunities.
Working with a sign expert may require a higher upfront investment, but the long-term benefits are undeniable. Professional signage attracts more customers, lasts longer, and represents your brand with confidence.
Partnering with a trusted expert like TM Signs and Graphics means you are choosing peace of mind. With deep industry knowledge, high-quality execution, and a focus on customer satisfaction, they help businesses grow with signage that performs.
Whether you are opening a new location or rebranding an existing one, signage is a critical part of your business presence. Hiring a sign expert ensures that your signs are not only attractive but also smart investments that save you time, reduce risk, and support long-term success.
TM Signs and Graphics delivers expert-driven signage solutions tailored to your business goals. From design to installation, you get more than a sign—you get a partner dedicated to your success.

From the moment I walked into TM Signs & Graphics for a channel letters sign for my store, the experience has been nothing short of outstanding. Trinh and Mike provide exceptional customer service, they took the time to understand my business to ensure the design was not only eye-catching but also perfectly aligned with my brand. Communication throughout the entire process was superb. I was kept informed at every stage, from initial concept discussions to the final installation. This level of responsiveness made the entire experience smooth and worry-free. TM Signs & Graphics handled everything seamlessly, from design conception to installation, even taking care of all necessary county permits. This streamlined approach saved me valuable time and effort, allowing me to focus on the upcoming grand opening of my store. When the sign was finally installed, I was genuinely impressed. The look and build quality exceeded my expectations. The craftsmanship was evident, and the sign itself has become a standout feature, drawing positive attention to my business. If you're searching for high-quality signage coupled with excellent customer service and clear communication, TM Signs & Graphics is definitely the place to go. I highly recommend them to anyone seeking signage solutions that not only meet but exceed expectations. Thank you, Trinh and Mike, for your professionalism and dedication to delivering a superior product.

These guys were awesome. Their online system allows you to view and approve your design and it's easy and straight forward. They showed up as scheduled and on-time. They were friendly and chatted with us while they worked. Our sign looks great. We also had a window sticker that we purchased elsewhere that we just could not get to stick on. These guys put it on for us free of charge. It was AWESOME!!

David Fuerbringer May 5, 2024
TM Signs and Graphics in Bakersfield exceeded my expectations! I'm usually hesitant about ordering any prints for a business, due to the many variables that can affect its quality and especially color. As a designer, I appreciate their process and the top-notch quality of their deliverables. After trying many local print shops in Bakersfield, I can CONFIDENTLY say, TM Signs and Graphics is the friendliest and best printers town! They use vector files (.ai, .svg) for printing, setting them apart from other budget options nearby. TM Signs and Graphics is the way to go, recommend for superior results!

I had a great experience with the service I received from Michael, Trinh and TM signs and graphics. Their service was fast, high quality, and the price was affordable. I had informed TM signs and graphics that I needed the project done within a few days, so I was very impressed when it took them less than a weekend to get it done, and I was even more impressed when we spoke about the cost of the project (hint. hint. It was less than other quotes). I 100% recommend giving TM signs a try. I'm very pleased with the services they offer, and I will continue to use them in the future.
