Awesome! I'd personally tone down the gradient on the 'home installation' text, it's a little too bright at the bottom. You also might want to try a small white shadow instead under the screws to make them look screwed into the sign more :)
And maybe a subtle 1px outer glow on the 'Made in UK' text to make it a tad more legible.
But that's just minor annoyances, I really do love these :D
Agree with Robbie, but I wanna add to that a pernickety suggestion: Futura to me isn't quintessential Britain — that's Gill Sans, which looks pretty similar, so I think it might be worth at least trying.
Think the wood one is my favourite. Brilliant texture.
