Who is Landmark Signs Inc.?
If you are finding us for the first time online, there is a good chance you are sorting through a lot of sign companies right now. Similar promises. Similar websites. Similar words.
So I want to make this simple and honest.
At Landmark Signs Inc., we are not trying to sound like every other sign company. We are trying to be the one you can actually rely on when it matters.
We have been doing this for over 40 years. We are an award winning full service sign company, and yes, we handle everything from design and permitting to fabrication and installation.
But if you are trying to figure out whether we are the right fit for you, here is what really matters.
We show up. We stay involved. We solve problems. And we take your project seriously because we understand what your sign represents.
For most businesses, a sign is not just a sign. It is visibility. It is credibility. It is the first impression people get before they ever walk through your door.
That is why we do not treat this like a transaction. We treat it like responsibility.
We Grew Up Doing This
There is a reason Landmark does not feel like a typical sign company. For us, this was never just a job that started later in life. It is something we grew up inside of.
John, the owner and founder, learned the sign trade from his grandfather, who hand painted signs long before anything was digital. That foundation of craftsmanship and attention to detail is still part of how we approach everything today.
As a family, signage was always around us. On long drives, John, would be designing in the front seat while the rest his family was in the car on long road trips. Family vacations were always peppered with installation jobs. John's children and wife climbing up ladders and carrying materials at the business grew.
Every one of his kids has worked in the business at some point. His wife has been part of it too. In fact, his wife, Denise, and eldest daughter, Julia, still work alongside him today.
That kind of upbringing changes how you see the work.
Because for us, this is not just fabrication or installation. It is something we understand from the ground up. We know what it takes to build it, install it, fix it, and make sure it lasts.
And more importantly, we understand the pride behind it.
When a client trusts us with their sign, we do not take that lightly. It feels personal because, in a lot of ways, it is.
We’re Personal.
If you are here, you probably do not want to feel like you are being passed around from department to department or left guessing what is happening with your project.
Neither do we.
We stay involved from the first conversation all the way through installation. We answer questions directly. We help you make decisions. We explain things when city requirements get confusing. And we stay present through the parts of the process that most people do not see coming.
Because signage is not always simple.
There are permits. There are city rules. There are engineering requirements. There are approvals that can slow things down if you are not used to dealing with them.
You should not have to carry all of that alone.
We do this every day, and our job is to make it feel manageable for you.
A lot of clients tell us afterward that they expected it to be stressful, but it ended up feeling clear and supported. That is exactly what we aim for.
We don't just work for you; we work with you. We're available to help you with any sign question and create solutions tailored just for you.
We're Creative.
A sign is not decoration. It is communication.
It tells people who you are before you ever get a chance to say a word.
That is why we take design seriously.
Our chief sign designer, John Myres, has been recognized as the number one sign designer in California and among the top 20 internationally. But what matters more to us is how that expertise shows up in real life.
Because good design is not about being flashy. It is about clarity, visibility, and presence.
We think about how your sign looks at a distance. How it reads at night. How it fits your building. How it competes with everything around it.
The goal is simple. When someone drives by your business, they notice you. They understand you. And they remember you.
We're Capable.
If you have ever tried to manage a sign project with multiple vendors, you already know how quickly things can get complicated.
That is why we handle the entire process ourselves.
Design. Permitting. Engineering coordination. Fabrication. Installation. City inspections. Service.
One team. One point of contact. One place to go when you need answers.
This matters more than people realize until they are in the middle of a project and trying to coordinate everything at once.
We deal with cities every day. We understand what they require, how long things take, and where projects tend to get stuck. Our job is to keep things moving and prevent surprises whenever possible.
You should not have to become an expert in signage regulations just to get a sign installed.
That is what we are here for. Landmark can handle all of your sign needs, from sign design to installation, including obtaining permits and satisfying inspectors.
We're Versatile.
One of the things that has shaped Landmark over the last 40 plus years is just how many different types of signage we have had to solve for.
Because in the real world, signage is never just one thing. It is not one material, one size, or one approach. Every project comes with its own purpose, visibility challenges, and property requirements.
Over time, we have built experience across a wide range of sign types, including:
- Monument Signs
- Pole Signs
- Channel Letter Signs
- Wall Signs
- Illuminated Signage
- Dimensional lettering or 3D Signs
- Wayfinding and Directional Signs
- Tenant signage programs
- Multi property signage rollouts
Each one serves a different role and sends a different message. What matters to us is not just building the sign itself, but understanding what it needs to accomplish.
Because when you have worked across this many sign types, you start to see that the real work is not in choosing a product. It is in understanding the environment it is going into, the people it needs to reach, and how it supports the business behind it.
That is where experience makes a difference. With decades of experience and an extraordinary level of expertise, Landmark can meet almost any sign type and any sign project.
We're Dependable.
This part is simple, but it is probably the most important.
We are still here after more than 40 years because we do what we say we are going to do.
That means showing up when we say we will.
Communicating when things change instead of letting clients wonder what is going on. Fixing problems directly instead of avoiding them or passing them along. And standing behind our work long after installation, when most people assume the job is already done.
We have always believed that dependability is not something you claim, it is something you prove over time, project after project.
A lot of our clients come back years later for new work, expansions, or additional locations. Others refer us to friends, partners, or other properties they manage. That does not happen because of marketing. It happens because trust builds quietly, one job at a time, when people realize you will actually take care of them.
And in this industry, where timelines, cities, and construction conditions can all shift quickly, trust is. In business for over 40 years, you can depend on Landmark. Others may come and go but we're here to stay!
What Clients Say About Working With Us
If you really want to understand a company, the best place to look is what clients say after the work is done.
On our Reviews page, one theme shows up again and again. It is not just about the final sign. It is about the experience of getting there.
Clients often mention things like communication, professionalism, and how easy the process felt even when it involved permits, approvals, and coordination with the city.
Here are a few real sentiments from clients:
“Once you use Landmark, you'll never want to use anyone else.”
“They consistently produce excellent quality signage designed to withstand the test of time.”
“They are reliable, honest, and deliver a high-quality product.”
"We’re super happy with their work and highly recommend Landmark Signs for any commercial signage projects."
That kind of feedback is what we care about most.
Because a great sign matters. But so does feeling like you have a team you can trust while it is being built.
Who We Serve
We work with a wide range of clients, but the common thread is simple. They all need signage that represents their business clearly and professionally, and they want a team that can guide them through the process without confusion.
Through our work across Southern California and beyond, we support:
- Small businesses and startups trying to establish their first physical presence
- Property managers coordinating signage across tenants and shared spaces
- Multi location companies that need consistency across different sites
- Retail centers focused on visibility and customer traffic
- Healthcare providers where clarity and professionalism matter
- Corporate campuses managing brand standards across large properties
- Churches and nonprofits that want welcoming, visible signage for their communities
- Developers and general contractors building new properties from the ground up
Each of these groups has different priorities.
A small business often just needs clarity and guidance on where to start. A property manager needs coordination and reliability across multiple tenants. A healthcare facility needs signage that feels professional, clean, and easy to navigate. A retail center needs visibility that drives traffic.
Our role is to understand what each client actually needs, not just sell them a sign.
Because when you have been doing this long enough, you realize the best outcomes come from listening first, then building the right solution around that.
