Car tinting at home or work

Your car can stay at home or at work for window tinting in York. Martin Callaghan brings the film and fitting equipment to your driveway or workplace car park. The van supplies its own power for the fitting, so you don’t have to provide electricity.

We also fit tint in Guildhall, Micklegate and Heworth. Film is fitted to the inside of the car windows, so rain doesn’t stop the job. Depending on the car, a full car tint usually takes between 1.5 and 2.5 hours.

Choose your tint

The tint viewer shows films on your make and model, from the lightest 70% through Fifty 50%, Twilight 35% and Luna 20% to darkest Onyx 5%; the numbers tell you how much light gets through. You can choose any shade for the rear side windows and back windscreen, and the installer advises on what’s legal at the front. Film cuts heat and glare, increases privacy and blocks up to 99% of UV. For windows at home or at work, see the York home and office film page.

What happens when the installer arrives?

They look over the car, go through the shades and which are legal on each window, then fit the film from inside the car. Most cars take 1.5 to 2.5 hours, and you get a warranty card, a microfibre cloth, a keyring and care instructions at the end.

Does the weather matter?

Rarely. The film goes on the inside of the glass, so rain doesn’t stop the job, and the van carries its own power and everything the installer needs.

What if something goes wrong later?

Car tint comes with a lifetime warranty for as long as you own the car. If it peels, bubbles or fades, the installer comes back to your home or workplace and fixes it.

How we work

Everything comes on the van

The van is independently powered and carries everything the installer needs, so you don’t have to provide electricity or a garage. A driveway or a workplace car park is enough.

What you get with every car

Every car tint has a lifetime warranty while you own the car, and the job isn’t finished until you’ve seen the result.

A clean handover

Before leaving, the installer goes round the car with you so you can see the finished windows, and leaves the car clean.

Lifetime warranty

For as long as you own the car. If the tint peels, bubbles or fades, we come back to your home or workplace to fix it.

Aftercare kit

A warranty card, a microfibre cleaning cloth, a keyring and care instructions. Small water bubbles or a slight haze are normal while the film dries, and they clear on their own.

    2 front windows on bmw

    “Today we had the 2 front windows tinted by Martin. He was absolutely brilliant efficient very polite and professional and definitely a great asset to the company. The windows are excellent he gave us advice on the windows and how long not to open them etc. I would highly recommend using this company again very reliable even down to the reminders that they were arriving on the date specified and also a courtesy text message to say that they were on the way. Thank you again”

Was unsure of which level of tint to go for but was given advice and guidance by Martin which led to a great finish and has truely enhanced the appearance of my car. The work was carried out very professionally which has led to a high quality finish. Highly recommended.”

    “Well all of the positive reviews were right ! From start to finish Renan was outstanding. We discussed the tint shade that I had selected and agreed that it was right. Despite installing in 30+ degree heat Renan didn't stop. He clearly knows his stuff and his advise about drying time etc was spot on. The tints have totally transferred the car and has made a real difference. Thank you ! Keep up the good work ! Thanks Dean”

    “Great experience from start to finish. Great communication even down to a text an hour before Mike was due as he was doing the job at my house which was the bonus of choosing Global Tint. When he turned up was a very pleasant guy, got on with the job and was finished within three quarters of an hour with no problems and the job was done perfectly. Would definitely use global tint again and recommend them to anyone.”

FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

Straight answers to the questions drivers in York ask us most.

Vehicle window tint limits are set nationally. The glass and film together must meet the applicable light-transmission limits. Read the GOV.UK window tint rules.

Can I arrange tint fitting if I live just outside York?

Yes, places just outside the city are included in our coverage around York. If the car isn’t in the quote list, the team can price it by phone so you can book the fitting.

Will you fit car tint in Murton or Acomb?

Yes, we fit tint for customers in Murton and Acomb, and also cover Hull Road. Once you’ve got the car’s price, choose a fitting time that suits you and give the address where you’ll have the car.

Who’ll tint my car in York?

Martin Callaghan, the Global Tint franchise owner for this area, will fit the film on your car. He did his training at Global Tint’s training facility, where every installer is trained to the same standard.

What minimum light levels apply to front windows?

At least 70% of light must pass through the front side windows of cars first used on or after 1 April 1985, and at least 75% through the windscreen. Earlier cars need at least 70% through both. Those limits count the existing glass and the film together.

How long does the car tint warranty last?
