Central Sign Services
CENTRAL SIGN SERVICES: I have been involved in the commercial and electrical signage industries off & on since 1975. In this time I have built, repaired, installed and serviced many signs, both illuminated and not. Below is a timeline of my involvement in the commercial electrical sign business.
