Vehicle wrap removal is the process of warming old vinyl graphics until the film releases, peeling it away at a low angle, then cleaning off leftover adhesive so the paint is ready to sell, return or re-wrap.

Good reasons to look at vehicle wrap and graphics removal in Ballymoney

  • Rebranding a Ballymoney business means the old name and number have to come off every vehicle before the new livery goes on.
  • Vans leaving a Ballymoney business at the end of a lease usually need to go back clean, so book removal well ahead of the collection date.
  • Several summers in an open yard in Ballymoney usually leave film sun-baked, brittle and slower to remove, so allow for more careful work.

What vehicle wrap and graphics removal costs in Ballymoney

Prices below are guides, not quotes: £245 to £795 per vehicle plus VAT, depending on size, materials and access. We confirm the exact figure after a survey or an artwork check, and it is agreed before anything is made.

Lettering or part graphics removal£245 – £450£294 – £540
Full wrap removal£450 – £795£540 – £954

The biggest factors are the age of the vinyl, whether it's cast or calendered film, and how much sun damage it has taken: brittle, cracked film takes far longer than film that peels in sheets. Vehicle size, the amount of adhesive left behind and any reflective film also count. Guide prices exclude VAT, and the final figure is confirmed from photos of the film's condition.

Vehicle wrap and graphics removal in Ballymoney: permission and rules

Removing graphics isn't usually a council matter. The point to watch is the V5C: if the wrap being removed changed the vehicle's main colour and DVLA was told at the time, update the colour back with DVLA and tell your insurer. Removing lettering or a part wrap over the original colour doesn't change the record. On a leased vehicle, check the return conditions for how graphics must be removed and how marks are charged. If the vehicle works on the highway, check whether your contract still needs Chapter 8 markings before they come off. These points are the same whether the vehicle is kept in England, Wales, Scotland or Northern Ireland.

Vehicle wrap and graphics removal in Ballymoney: questions

How long does it take to get vehicle wrap and graphics removal in Ballymoney?

It typically takes a few weeks from first enquiry, with much of that time falling after you approve the proof, while the work is made and scheduled. Graphics and vehicle jobs are typically shorter than fabricated or illuminated signs. If advertisement consent is needed, the council's decision comes first and adds to the overall timescale.

How long does it take to remove a van wrap?

A full wrap typically takes about a day per van, and lettering or part graphics typically take a few hours. Sun-damaged or calendered film that breaks into small pieces can take considerably longer, as can heavy adhesive residue. We'll give you a typical time once we've seen photos of the film's condition.

Can you remove lettering but leave the wrap underneath?

Often, yes. Cut lettering applied on top of a wrap can usually be warmed and peeled off without lifting the wrap, as long as both are in sound condition. The wrap under the lettering will have been shaded from the sun, so a faint outline may show; new lettering placed in the same spot usually hides it.

What will the vehicle look like afterwards?

You'll get clean panels with the adhesive removed, showing the paint as it was under the film. Chips, scratches or dents that the graphics were hiding will be visible again, and some ghosting may show where the film's edges were. A valet or machine polish is usually the finishing step before a sale, lease return or re-wrap.

What do you need from me to quote for vehicle wrap and graphics removal in Ballymoney?

Photos are the most useful start: the whole frontage, window or vehicle, plus a close-up of the area involved. Add rough measurements, your logo or artwork if you have it, and the address. From that we can say whether a survey visit is needed and send a written quote, followed by a proof for you to approve.

Can I get a fixed price for vehicle wrap and graphics removal in Ballymoney before committing?

Yes. We start from the guide range, £245 to £795 per vehicle excluding VAT, then measure up or look at your photos and artwork. That gives a fixed written price reflecting the real size, materials, access and any design or consent work. You only commit once you accept that price and approve the proof.
