Family-run sign shop on the Texas Gulf Coast  ·  Call 979-244-6661
Bay City, Texas · Since 2008

Signs that actually bring people through the door.

We design, build and install lit channel letters, monument signs and storefront cabinets the old-fashioned way — by hand, in our shop on Fannie Street, with parts you can buy again in fifteen years.

Why folks call us

A small Texas shop that treats your storefront like ours.

Richard Morales started Lone Star Lumen out of a one-bay garage back in 2008 after a decade installing signs across Matagorda and Brazoria counties. Today we run a six-person crew, a 6,000-sq-ft fabrication shop, and a 35-ft boom truck — but the rule hasn't changed: if a sign leaves the building with our name on it, it needs to outlast the lease.

We file your municipal permits, talk to the landlord, pull the power, and come back to swap a driver when one finally gives out a decade later. No call centers, no franchise pricing, no white-label drop-shipping from out of state.

"Richard's crew rebuilt our pylon after Hurricane Beryl in under three weeks — permit, structural, the works. They beat the big Houston shop by ten days and four grand."

How a project runs

Five honest steps, no surprise invoices.

  • 1. Field visit

    We come out, measure the wall, photograph the elevation, and check what the city of Bay City (or Wharton, or wherever you are) actually allows.

  • 2. Design & mock-up

    You get a to-scale rendering on a real photo of your building within 5 business days — not a clip-art template.

  • 3. Permits & engineering

    We handle municipal sign permits, sealed structural drawings when required, and landlord approvals.

  • 4. Fabrication

    Built in our Bay City shop. Powder-coated, UL-tested, photographed before it ever leaves the dock.

  • 5. Install & service

    Licensed install crew, lift truck, and electrical hookup. Two-year workmanship warranty plus annual courtesy inspection.
