What this covers
- Wall signs and projecting (blade) signs
- Monument and storefront signs
- Awnings — projection and clearance documented
- Temporary banners, filed as their own short-term permit
How it works
- Talk to Tony — tell him the address and the scope. Two minutes, from the job site.
- We prepare and file the application through PermitSF, the city's portal.
- City fees pass through at cost — you see them before anything is filed.
- When the permit issues, we line up the inspection — the sequencing is on us to track, not you.
Good to know in San Francisco
- An illuminated sign adds an electrical component — usually a companion electrical permit. We flag the pair so the sign is not hung waiting on paperwork.
- Awning filings turn on two numbers: projection out from the building face, and clearance height over the sidewalk. We state both up front.
- Historic and special sign districts can add a review step. We check the address before promising a timeline.
Who uses this
Sign shops and awning companies, electrical sign contractors, and business owners opening or rebranding a storefront.

Talk to TonyPermitsPros — we file permits. We never promise approvals — that's the city's call, and we tell you so up front. City fees are separate and paid by you directly to the city.
