A van wrap is printed cast vinyl film, protected by a clear laminate, applied over a van's factory paint to cover some or all of its panels with your branding, colours and contact details.

  • If you trade across Kent as well as Sevenoaks, a wrapped van takes the same branding to every job without paying for advertising space.

Options for your Sevenoaks project

Gloss, satin or matt laminate

The laminate finish changes how colours look and how easily the van wipes clean.

Reflective details

Retroreflective film for stripes or lettering that shows up in headlights.

Colour change plus graphics

Plain coloured film over the whole van, with printed or cut graphics on top.

Rules for vehicle graphics in Sevenoaks

For vehicles, the paperwork is about DVLA and your insurer, not the planning department. Graphics on a van or car that is normally driven around fall outside advertisement control; only a vehicle parked mainly as an advertising hoarding is caught. A change of main colour means updating the colour on your V5C and telling your insurer. We leave the windscreen and front side windows clear, because the Construction and Use Regulations 1986 require at least 75% and 70% light through them, and we check the paint is sound factory finish before wrapping. If the vehicle is leased, confirm the lease permits graphics and how they must come off.

Covering Sevenoaks and Kent

From the middle of Sevenoaks to the edges of Kent, the same survey, proof and fit process applies. If the job calls for someone on site, a visit is booked; if not, we price from photos, measurements and your artwork, then confirm the details once the artwork is checked. Addresses in TN13 and TN14 are all within our Sevenoaks coverage. From Maidstone, Sevenoaks is roughly 14 miles to the west.

Van wraps in Sevenoaks: questions

What is the typical timescale for van wraps from enquiry to fitting?

A quote typically follows once we have your photos or have surveyed the site, and making and fitting is typically booked a few weeks after you approve the proof. Where advertisement consent applies, that decision has to come through before anything goes up, which can add several weeks. We give you an expected timescale with your quote for Sevenoaks.

Do you need print-ready artwork for a van wrap?

No. A logo file, your brand colours and the wording you want are enough to start. The design is laid out on a scale template of your van, with each side, the front and the rear doors shown on the proof. If you already have a full wrap design, we check it against the template so nothing lands on a handle or door gap.

Who carries out the work on van wraps in Sevenoaks?

The work on site is done by installers working under our contract, and anything that needs making is produced by specialist fabricators. You deal with Smart Signs throughout: we take the enquiry, survey, prepare the design and quote, check consent and coordinate the fitting, so there is one point of contact from first message to handover.

Can graphics go on the rear windows?

Yes, on the rear windows, using perforated one-way vision film that lets the driver see out while passers-by see the print. It's used on vans with two exterior mirrors. The windscreen and front side windows must let through at least 75 per cent and 70 per cent of light respectively, so we keep graphics off those.

How much should I budget for van wraps in Sevenoaks?

As a guide, £795–£3,850 per van + VAT. Where your job falls in that range depends on size, materials, access height, whether old signage has to come off and how much design work is involved. We confirm a fixed price after a survey or artwork check, before anything is ordered.

What if your phone number or services change?

The affected area can usually be patched with a new printed section cut to fit the existing design, rather than redoing the whole van. On an older wrap, new print may look slightly brighter than film that has been in the sun for a while, so replacing a larger panel, such as a whole rear door, can blend in better.
