Total Estimated Cost

$11,376.00

≈ 8 months of rent

Material Cost$4,800.00
Fabrication Cost$3,220.00
Installation Cost$1,980.00
How to Use This Calculator
  1. Select monument sign material (brick, stone, aluminum, HDU foam) and enter sign height (ft).
  2. Set fabrication complexity and illumination type (none, halo-lit, internally lit).
  3. Review material, fabrication, installation, and total cost for the monument sign.
  4. Add permit costs (typically $200-$1,000 depending on jurisdiction) to the project budget.
  5. Check local zoning for monument sign height and setback requirements before design finalization.

How the result changes with Sign Height (ft)

Sign Height (ft)Total Estimated Cost
3.8$8,965.00
8.3$13,897.00
14$20,144.00
18$24,528.00

What each input means

Sign Height (ft)
Overall height of the monument sign including base
Sign Width (ft)
Overall width of the monument sign
Material
1 = Stone/masonry, 2 = Foam/stucco, 3 = Aluminum/metal panel
Illuminated
0 = Non-illuminated, 1 = Illuminated (internal or external lighting)

How this is calculated

Worked example, using the default values

  1. Identify Input Parameters
    4 parameters
    Sign Height (ft) = 6, Sign Width (ft) = 8, Material = 1, Illuminated = 1 = 4 input(s) provided
  2. Calculate Material Cost
    Material Cost
    4800 = $4,800
  3. Calculate Fabrication Cost
    Fabrication Cost
    3220 = $3,220
