Window tinting is a two-to-three-hour job. Taking a car to a workshop, waiting or arranging a lift, then coming back for it turns that into most of a day. For a van that’s supposed to be working, it’s worse. So we fit mobile: we come to your driveway, your workplace or your yard, and the vehicle never leaves.
What mobile tinting covers
Cars, vans and light commercials, using the same accredited films we fit in the workshop. Rear and rear-side glass on cars, load-area and rear glass on vans, and the legal front-side films where the vehicle allows. Pricing is the same as workshop fitting: from £109 for a small 3-door or a panel van, scaling with the size of the vehicle.
Where we’ll come to
Harrogate, Leeds, York and Bradford, and the towns between them. Further afield is usually possible; give us the postcode and we’ll say straight away rather than surprise you with a travel charge.
What we need on the day
Tint is unforgiving of dust and damp. A single speck under the film shows for the life of the tint, so the conditions matter more than they do for graphics:
- Somewhere enclosed, ideally. A garage, a unit or a covered bay is best. A driveway on a dry, still day works for most cars; a windy car park doesn’t. If in doubt, tell us what you’ve got and we’ll advise.
- Clean glass, inside and out. We do the final clean ourselves, but a car that’s just come off a muddy site needs a wash first.
- Access to both sides of the vehicle and room to open the doors fully.
- Two to three hours. Longer for a full van or anything with a lot of glass. We’ll give you a firm time when we book.
If the weather turns on the day and the spot isn’t sheltered, we’ll rebook rather than fit a tint we wouldn’t be happy with.
What stays legal
Mobile fitting changes where the work happens, not what’s allowed. Front side windows must let through at least 70% of light and the windscreen 75%; anything darker on those is an MOT failure and a roadside stop. Rear windows are unrestricted. We fit legal front films where the factory glass allows and we’ll tell you honestly when it doesn’t. The full rules are in our window tint law guide.
Vans and fleets
Load-area privacy tint on a van does two jobs: it hides the tools and it stops the back turning into an oven in July. For a fleet, mobile fitting means we work through the vans in your yard on a quiet day, and none of them go off the road.
Booking
Pick your vehicle on the tint estimator for a starting price, or use the quick quote tool. Tell us your postcode and where the car will be, and we’ll confirm a time to come to you.
