About us
Three generations, one family, since 1940
From hand-painted signs and pinstripes to full digital wraps — same family, same standards.
Lombardo Lettering is a family-owned business located in Chester, NJ, with over 30 years of expertise in vehicle lettering. Our aim is to help businesses connect with customers while enhancing lead generation through impressive displays. Our mobile service means we bring our expertise right to your location, saving you precious time.
At our core, we help blue collar and service based businesses turn their vehicles and signage into 24/7 rolling advertisements that actually look professional and build trust. That is a different job from printing something cheap and fast, and it is why customers who found us thirty years ago still call when a new truck arrives.
The Lombardo legacy
1940–1960
Frank Lombardo Sr.
Established in 1940 by Frank Lombardo Senior, the business began with old fashion talent with painted signage, pinstripes and murals. After serving his country in the army, he utilized his talents to build a career for himself and lay the foundation for a family legacy.
1970–Present
Frank Lombardo Jr.
As time progressed, the business was handed down to Frank Lombardo Jr. After learning all of his father’s tips, tricks, and work ethic, Frank moved away from the paint and brushes and modernized the business to where it is today. With the inclusion of the latest technologies including vinyl decals, wraps and varieties of adhesive graphics he has honed his craft.
Present day
Tristan Lombardo
Now, as the third generation, Tristan Lombardo strides to excel the business while maintaining the original values and integrity the business was founded on. Working with his father since practically diapers, he is the first generation to graduate from college with an associates in business and certified in small business management.
Why mobile
Our competitors require you to drop your vehicle off, and it can take days before your asset is returned. For a contractor, that is not an inconvenience, it is lost revenue. We work on site to complete the job and get you back up and running in no time. Over 30 years that decision has taken us into yards, driveways, municipal garages, quarries and farm sheds across eight counties.
What we will not do
We do not use cheap calendared vinyl that looks fine for a season and then lifts at the edges. We do not cut a job before you have approved a proof on your own vehicle. And we do not talk a customer into a full wrap when lettering would get the same result for a fraction of the money. We use the highest quality materials and decals, resulting in brilliant design color and glueless decal removal.
We don’t cut corners — premium materials only
