Most business owners don’t just need a sign, they need someone to take ownership of the entire process.
Permits, design, fabrication, installation… it adds up fast, and if even one piece falls through, your timeline drags or your sign never gets installed the way you pictured it.
We’re based in Kansas City, and we regularly complete sign installation projects across the Midwest, including Omaha and the surrounding areas. Whether it’s a clean storefront sign or a massive highway-visible pylon, we handle the full scope so you don’t have to coordinate five different vendors.

I look forward to working with him on future projects and would heartily recommend him to others., Sincerely yours, Reverend Duke Tufty Unity Temple On The PlazaPosted on Steve TimperleyDecember 20, 2022 We used Excel Lighting & Sign to have a new sign added to our building on Ward Parkway, both inside and outside.

Tell us what you have, what you want to change, and where it is. A couple photos helps us move faster.

This is where signage regulations, zoning requirements, and development guidelines live. Helpful if you want to understand what’s allowed before starting a project.
You’ll find information on permitting requirements, applications, and approvals related to sign installation.
Useful for confirming property details, zoning classifications, and site-specific considerations before installing signage.
Do you handle permits for signs in Omaha?
Yes. Sign permits can get confusing fast with local zoning rules and size restrictions. We take care of the permitting process for you so you don’t have to figure out city requirements or deal with delays.
How long does it take to install a new commercial sign?
Timelines depend on the type of sign and permitting, but most projects follow a predictable path: design, approval, fabrication, then installation. Smaller storefront signs can move quickly, while larger pylon or monument signs take longer due to engineering and approvals.
What types of businesses do you work with?
We work with a wide range, from local shops and offices to multi-location brands and national companies. If your business needs visibility from the street or highway, we’ve likely handled a similar project before.
Can you help if I don’t know what kind of sign I need?
Absolutely. A lot of customers come to us with a rough idea but no clear direction. We help you sort through options—channel letters, monument signs, pylon signs—based on your building, traffic patterns, and how far away you need to be seen.
Do you repair or replace existing signs?
Yes. If your current sign is faded, damaged, or just outdated, we can repair it or replace it with something that looks sharper and performs better. A refreshed sign often makes a bigger impact than people expect.
How much does a sign cost in Omaha?
Pricing varies depending on size, materials, lighting, and installation complexity. Simple signs can be relatively affordable, while large illuminated or freestanding signs require a bigger investment. We’ll give you a clear quote so you know exactly what to expect.
