Signage

YESCO

YESCO, the Young Electric Sign Company, designs, manufactures, installs, and maintains custom electric signs, architectural lighting, electronic message centers, and billboards. It was founded in 1920 in Utah, is now in its 105th year, and says it remains a family-owned company.

The firm handles the whole project life cycle: custom sign design, manufacturing, installation, and ongoing sign maintenance. Alongside new signage it sells sign and lighting service and repair, energy efficient lighting, printed signs, and architectural solutions, and it operates an out-of-home advertising business with billboard proposals. Work is delivered through local offices that clients select from a map of states and provinces, and separate request paths exist for a custom sign quote, a repair, and a billboard proposal.

Credentials are published in detail. A contractor license page lists registrations state by state, including electrical contractor, electrical sign, sign erection, and general contractor licenses, with separate entities named for states such as North Carolina, North Dakota, and West Virginia. YESCO also owns the "Welcome to Fabulous Las Vegas" sign, which is leased to Clark County and maintained by YESCO on the county's behalf.

What to check directly: because service runs through local offices, confirm which office covers the property, and check the contractor license page for the relevant state, since licensing in Colorado, for example, is by local jurisdiction rather than statewide.
