What separates a sign that still looks great in 10 years from one that starts failing in 2?

Usually, it’s the work you never see.

We’re currently painting a custom plaque for Live! Casino & Hotel Philadelphia using a Matthews Paint system that includes both primer and finish coats.

The final color gets all the attention, but proper preparation is what helps create a durable, long lasting finish. Every step matters, from surface prep to primer to the final coat.

At Martino Signs & Awnings, we believe quality isn’t just about how a sign looks on installation day.

It’s about how it looks years later.

Your sign is working 24 hours a day. Is it actually helping your business?

For many businesses, a sign is one of the first things customers see. If it disappears at night or blends into the building during the day, it’s not doing its job.

sign is a great example of why push through acrylic signs are such a popular choice. The acrylic letters and logo are routed through a custom aluminum pan, creating depth, clean lines, and bright, even LED illumination.

The result is a sign that looks sharp during the day and stands out at night, helping customers find your business while reinforcing your brand.

Simple. Clean. Professional.

Before ➜ After | KidStrong Bensalem

Every sign has a story behind it.

We recently partnered with the KidStrong team on their Bensalem location, managing the project from permitting through manufacturing and installation. Franchise projects often require balancing brand standards with local township requirements, and our team worked closely with everyone involved to keep the process moving smoothly.

The result is a clean, highly visible storefront that helps strengthen the KidStrong brand and creates a welcoming presence for families visiting the facility.

A big thank you to the KidStrong team for trusting Martino Signs & Awnings with the project. We’re proud to have played a small part in bringing another location to life.

What do you think makes the biggest difference in a storefront’s first impression?

Ever wonder what’s actually inside those glowing letters you see on buildings at night?

Probably not… until now. 😂

When most people look at a sign, they see the finished product. What they don’t see is all the work that goes into making it look good after the sun goes down.

In this video, Jonathan is installing the LEDs inside a front lit channel letter. Every light has to be spaced correctly so the letter lights up evenly without dark spots or bright patches.

It’s one of those details nobody notices when it’s done right, but everybody notices when it’s done wrong.

Honestly, it’s kind of funny. We can spend hours building, wiring, and testing a letter, and at the end of the day someone drives by and says, “Nice sign.”

And that’s exactly how it’s supposed to be.

A little behind the scenes look at what goes into the signs you see every day.

A day in the life of a sign maker…

We were commissioned to produce the wayfinding signs for Roots Picnic in Philadelphia. Sounds simple enough, right?

The challenge? Final approvals came in right before the event opened. That meant reshuffling schedules, moving projects around, and putting our team into overdrive to get everything designed, produced, and installed on time.

No excuses. No panic. Just a team focused on getting it done.

In the end, thousands of attendees knew exactly where to go thanks to custom wayfinding signs that helped keep the event moving smoothly all weekend long.

If you have an event, festival, property, campus, or venue that needs clear direction and professional signage, reach out to Martino Signs & Awnings. Tight deadline or not, we’ll find a way to make it happen.

There’s a reason people call him Dave “The Great” Martino.

After more than 40 years in the sign business, he’s seen just about everything. And while the industry has changed, one thing hasn’t:

Experience matters.

Here, Dave is sharing some of that experience with the team while we work through the lighting on a custom illuminated sign. No fancy presentation. No boardroom meeting. Just years of knowledge being passed along in the shop.

One thing Dave likes to say:

“Anybody can build a sign. Building it right is what keeps customers coming back.”

Whether it’s a simple banner or a custom, giant pylon or illuminated sign, the little details make all the difference.

Always learning. Always improving. And always getting a little wisdom from Dave The Great.

Most people only see the finished sign.

What they don’t see is the craftsmanship that goes into every step along the way.

Oscar is fabricating trim cap for a custom channel letter project. It’s one of those behind the scenes processes that helps turn a design into a finished sign.

The equipment matters. The materials matter. But the people behind the work make all the difference.

This is where quality signage starts.

This NYC property didn’t need a new canopy. It needed a smarter solution.

When Algin Management contacted us, the existing entrance canopy was structurally sound, but the fabric was faded, worn, and making the property’s entrance look dated.

Instead of recommending a complete replacement, we helped them extend the life of the existing structure by recovering the canopy with new fabric on the top, bottom, and end panels, updating the lighting, and refreshing the building identification.

The result is a cleaner, brighter, more welcoming entrance that improves curb appeal and creates a better first impression for residents and visitors without the cost of rebuilding the entire canopy.

Sometimes the best solution isn’t replacing what’s there. It’s maximizing the value of the investment you already have.

Ever wonder what your sign, awning, canopy, or building branding is going to look like before the project starts?

That’s exactly why we create detailed renderings.

Before fabrication begins or a crew shows up on site, you’ll be able to see the design, colors, sizing, placement, and overall look of the project. No guesswork. No surprises.

Whether it’s commercial signage, dimensional letters, channel letters, awnings, canopies, monument signs, or a complete exterior rebrand, our renderings help you make decisions with confidence before production even begins.

A great project starts with a clear plan, and it all starts with seeing the vision first.

One of the challenges Franklin Towne Charter School faced was improving campus visibility while creating a better way to communicate important information to students, parents, and visitors.

Our solution combined a new building sign with a digital LED message center, giving the school a stronger presence and the ability to share announcements, events, and updates in real time.

What most people see is the finished product. What they don’t see are the site visits, planning, design, fabrication, permitting, and installation that make it all come together.

That’s the part we enjoy most, taking a challenge and turning it into a solution that serves the client for years to come.
