Terms of use

These website terms apply to your use of the Sign Riggers website and any enquiry submitted through it. By accessing the site you agree to the conditions set out below, which are governed by South African law.

1. Who operates this website

This website is operated by Astros Marketing (Pty) Ltd on behalf of Sign Riggers, a rigging and maintenance service based in Paarden Eiland, Cape Town, with crews operating in Johannesburg and surrounding areas. The website is provided for general information about our services, areas of work and contact process for sign makers and related businesses.

Sign Riggers works as a specialist rigging contractor only. We do not compete with sign shops or act as a sign manufacturer, retailer or supplier of sign products. Any service request submitted through the website is assessed by our team before acceptance, scheduling or quotation.

2. Acceptable use of the site

You may use this website for lawful business purposes only. You must not misuse the site, attempt unauthorised access, introduce harmful code, or use the content in a way that is misleading, defamatory or unlawful.

  • Do not copy, scrape or republish site content without written permission.
  • Do not submit false, incomplete or misleading enquiry details.
  • Do not interfere with the performance, security or availability of the website.
  • Do not use the site to send spam, unsolicited marketing or fraudulent requests.

3. Service information and enquiry handling

The site may describe services such as sign installation, removal, servicing, lighting access, site surveys, lift planning, scaffold access, platform work, billboard face changes, emergency callouts, sign relocations and maintenance visits. Service descriptions are general and may vary depending on site conditions, access, load-shedding, weather, municipal restrictions and safety requirements.

Submitting an enquiry through the contact page does not create a contract. Any booking, scope of work, timing, access requirement or pricing must be confirmed by Sign Riggers after review of the site details. We may decline work where conditions are unsafe, access is restricted or the job falls outside our rigging scope.

  • All dates are subject to crew availability and site readiness.
  • Lift plans, scaffold access and safety measures may be required before work starts.
  • Additional costs may apply where a site changes after inspection.

4. Pricing, estimates and third-party site conditions

Any estimate or indicative cost shared through the website or after an enquiry is based on the information available at the time. If a site in Sandton, Midrand, Bellville, Somerset West, Paarl, Johannesburg CBD or elsewhere changes in access, height, fixings, traffic control or electrical condition, the scope and price may need to be revised.

We are not responsible for delays or additional charges caused by third-party actions, including landlord approvals, body corporate rules, municipal permits, road closures, building access rules or weather related interruptions. Coastal humidity, corrosion and ageing hardware may affect the method and time required for safe rigging, so each job must be assessed on site.

5. Safety, access and site responsibility

Safety is a condition of our work. Our crews are trained in rigging, scaffold use and first aid, and may refuse to proceed if the site is not safe, properly isolated or ready for access. The client remains responsible for providing accurate site details and for arranging any permissions needed to enter a building, roof, yard or loading area.

  • You must tell us about known hazards, live electrical equipment, height limits and fragile surfaces.
  • You must ensure the site is accessible at the agreed time, including keys, permits or escort requirements where applicable.
  • You must not ask our team to perform unsafe lifting or bypass required safety steps.
  • Where emergency callouts are accepted, response times depend on traffic, weather and existing site commitments.

6. Intellectual property and website content

All text, images, layouts, graphics and compiled content on this website are protected by applicable intellectual property laws and remain the property of Sign Riggers, Astros Marketing (Pty) Ltd, or their respective rights holders where applicable. You may view the content for your own business reference, but you may not reproduce, alter, distribute or use it for commercial purposes without written consent.

Trade names, service descriptions and references to towns or regions are provided to identify the areas in which we work. They do not grant any licence or right to use the content outside this website. Any unauthorised copying, especially for competing services, is prohibited.

7. Liability, law and contact

To the fullest extent permitted by South African law, Sign Riggers and Astros Marketing (Pty) Ltd will not be liable for indirect loss, loss of business, loss of profit, data loss, or damage arising from use of this website or reliance on its content. Nothing in these terms limits liability where such limitation is not allowed by law.

These terms are governed by the laws of the Republic of South Africa. Any dispute arising from use of the website will be handled in South Africa, subject to the applicable courts and legal process. If you need to discuss a website enquiry, use the contact form on the contact page and our team will respond through that channel. We may update these terms from time to time, and continued use of the site means you accept the updated version.
