Pollitt Signs and Graphics — Baltimore County
Hand-carved and sandblasted signs in wood, HDU, and stone, fabricated in-house in Havre de Grace since 1947 for historic districts, estates, and town welcome signs. Serving businesses in Perry Hall and Baltimore County since 1947.
Carved and sandblasted signs are a Pollitt specialty, hand-carved and fabricated entirely in-house at our Havre de Grace shop rather than farmed out to another vendor. We work in high-density urethane (HDU), natural wood, and stone to create deeply dimensional, hand-finished signs — raised carved letters, sandblasted wood-grain backgrounds, and finishing options like gold leaf and hand-painted detail that a flat-printed sign simply can't reproduce. It's the same craft behind projects like the carved Havre de Grace town welcome sign, and it's what we bring to historic district storefronts, estate entrances, HOA and community entrances, and businesses that want a sign built to last for decades. Because carved signs so often go into locations with design review boards — historic districts, town rights-of-way, HOA communities — our in-house permit department handles those applications and variances for you from start to finish.
Perry Hall's Honeygo Boulevard corridor has become one of northeast Baltimore County's fastest-growing commercial areas, with medical offices, restaurants, retail centers, and professional services serving the dense residential population near the I-695 beltway. The Belair Road corridor near Perry Hall High School and Fullerton adds a more established commercial strip with longer-tenured businesses and different sign replacement cycles. Baltimore County's sign permit process covers both corridors, and our team manages county submissions from site measurement through final inspection — including the structural engineering letters sometimes required for larger cabinet and pylon installations.
All carved & sandblasted signs installations in Perry Hall require sign permits through the Baltimore County Office of Planning. As a Baltimore County sign company with over seven decades of permitting experience, our dedicated permit department handles the application, setback compliance review, and any variance requests. Baltimore County's Office of Planning typically reviews standard sign permit applications in about 4–8 weeks. Larger freestanding and pylon signs, digital message centers, and any sign that exceeds the county's standard height or setback allowances usually require a variance hearing, and tenant signage in shopping centers must also match the property's approved sign criteria on file with the county. You focus on your business; we handle the paperwork.
Perry Hall's residential, professional-services character shapes how we approach carved & sandblasted signs here. Carved and sandblasted signs are a strong fit for professional offices, churches, and community organizations in this setting, where a durable HDU or wood sign communicates permanence and craftsmanship to a local client base that values quality over highway flash.
