2007 Pricing

Creating a chalkboard for your business or home is a personal decision. You have several choices to make to ensure your board is unique to you. The final outcome of your board is completely up to you!

Below are some basic prices to allow you to get an idea of what your board will cost. Please contact Chalk of the Town directly so that a personalized estimate can be put together for your specific order.

Putting your chalkboard together:

1) Chalkboard is $6.50 per square foot. The specific size of your board can range from 1’x 1’ up to a sheet of 4’x 8’ – the choice is yours.

2) Framing is suggested on any board larger than 3’x 4’, as the boards tend to bow. Your framing options are limitless. Choose the color, size and design that best compliments your space. Chalk of the Town can take care of all your framing needs.

Illustration and Design of your chalkboard:

1) Illustrations, design and layout can be done in chalk (in order to reuse the board) or in paint (to allow you to keep your design permanent).

Protecting Your New Chalkboard:

By keeping your chalkboard away from curious hands and water, your chalk design should last you for years. However, if you are planning on putting your chalkboard in a busy place where it could be smudged or splashed on, you should consider using a fixative or cover for your board.
Spray Fixative and Varnish: Your board can be sprayed with a fixative to help adhere the chalk to the board, but it will not protect the board from smudging. A varnish cover on the board will protect the chalk to a point, but it can be (with some elbow grease) removed. The varnish option will limit the re-usage of your chalkboard, as it tends to ruin the board face.
Plexi-Glass Cover: Another option for a high-traffic area is to cover your chalkboard with a non-glare plexi-glass. This will allow you to re-use the board, make changes, etc, but without spraying a fixative on the board face.


Your new chalkboard will last for many years if you take some
simple steps to protect and take care of it!
