I just had Bob and his family make an address sign for my house. Super nice people. Pricing was very reasonable and they got it done and installed pretty quickly. But the real reason for the five stars is the product. They are true artists over there. The took my design to the next level with gorgeous carving and workmanship. I absolutely love the sign they made. I would use them again any time. I recommend them to anyone. You won't be disappointed.

Bob, of Bob Shaw Signs, created an absolute masterpiece of a double-sided, hanging sign for my barber shop, True Believers Barber Shop, in New Hope, PA. I encourage you to seek it out for yourself in order to witness the Shaw family's impeccable & remarkable level of craftsmanship! Bob initially made the sign 3D, but then went on to add a carved addition for my shop logo's skull, handshake & laurels so they could pop on an entirely different level!

My fiance & I are consistently taken aback by the level of quality that Bob & his family have always paid mind to. Thousands of signs & numerous patrons over the years. There's most certainly a reason for it. Do yourselves a favor & start your next project with Bob & the Shaw family!

Bob and Charlie helped me design my logo and text exactly how I wanted. Very friendly staff and easy to work with. The quality of the decals was better than I could have anticipated. I would recommend Bob to anyone who needs signage for their business.

Saw the owner installing a sign on-site. Was extremely rude and treated employees terrible
