Billboard Installation and Removal
Fitting, replacing and removing advertising faces across Jamaica, with the access equipment and the safety discipline the work actually requires.
The part of outdoor advertising that happens at height, in traffic
Installing a billboard face is not a sign-fixing job. It happens at height, frequently beside live carriageways, on structures that have to stay safe afterwards. It needs access equipment, traffic management and crews who have done it before.
We install faces on our own network and on third-party structures, replace graphics mid-campaign, and remove cleanly at the end of a booking. Removal matters more than most advertisers assume: material left up after a campaign attracts complaints and, increasingly, enforcement.
Related structural work is covered under structure fabrication and static billboard installation.
What the crew handles
Access, fitting, tensioning and site reinstatement are part of the job, not extras.
Face fitting
New vinyl or paper fitted and tensioned so it stays flat. A loose face creases, catches wind and fails early.
Mid-campaign replacement
Swapping a face for a new message or replacing one that has been damaged, usually within a day.
Removal and reinstatement
Clean removal at the end of a booking, with the structure left ready for the next face.
Access equipment
Elevated platforms and rigging appropriate to the height and position of the site.
Traffic management
Where a site sits beside a live carriageway, the works are managed so the road stays safe.
Condition reporting
Structural issues spotted during a fit are reported and passed to maintenance.
How an installation runs
Site assessment
Access, height, traffic exposure and fixing method confirmed before scheduling. On unfamiliar sites this may mean a survey first.
Schedule
Timed around traffic conditions and daylight. Busy corridors are often fitted early morning.
Remove the outgoing face
The previous graphic comes down and the frame is checked before anything new goes on.
Fit and tension
New face fitted, aligned and tensioned, with fixings checked along every edge.
Sign off
Photographed on completion, which also serves as proof of display for reporting.

| Mid-campaign replacement | Half a day | Old face removed and disposed of |
| Removal only | Half a day | Structure left clear and safe |
| Damaged face, emergency | Same or next day | Weather damage prioritised |
| Install on new structure | Coordinated with build | Follows fabrication |
Frequently asked
Do you install on structures you did not build?
Yes, provided the structure is sound. If a crew finds a safety concern on arrival we will stop and report rather than fit onto it.
How quickly can a damaged face be replaced?
Usually same or next day once a replacement is printed. After severe weather we prioritise by exposure and safety.
Is removal really necessary?
Yes. Leaving material up past the booking generates complaints and can attract enforcement. See what happens if your sign is non-compliant.
Do you work outside Kingston?
Yes, across all fourteen parishes. Sites further from Kingston and Runaway Bay may need a little more scheduling notice.
