Vehicle wraps in Halton Hills typically start around $1,500 for a partial wrap and $2,500–$5,000 for a full wrap, depending on vehicle size and design complexity. Business signage varies more: banners from $89, window graphics from $129, and custom storefront signs quoted free. At Tech Guys, design, printing, and installation all happen under one roof — you deal with one shop, not three.
If you’re a tradesperson, contractor, or small business owner in Georgetown, Acton, or anywhere in Halton Hills, your vehicle and storefront are advertising space you’re already paying for. This guide breaks down what professional wraps and signage actually cost — and how to get the most visibility per dollar.

What Affects the Price of a Vehicle Wrap?
1. Vehicle size. A compact car and a Sprinter van are very different jobs — more vinyl, more labour, more complexity around mirrors, handles, and panel gaps. Tell us your exact make, model, and year for an accurate quote.
2. Coverage. This is the biggest lever on price. A partial wrap (doors, hood, rear) costs far less than a full wrap and still gets noticed — most of the advertising value comes from the sides and rear anyway. Full wraps make sense for maximum impact or colour changes; partial wraps make sense for budgets.
3. Design complexity. A clean logo-and-contact layout is cheaper than full custom artwork with gradients and photo elements — and honestly, clean and readable usually advertises better. We design in-house either way, and you’ll approve a proof before anything prints.
4. Vinyl quality. We use commercial-grade cast vinyl rated for Canadian winters — rated 5–7 years outdoors. Cheap calendared film costs less upfront and starts peeling by the second spring. On a vehicle that lives outside in Halton Hills weather, quality vinyl isn’t a luxury, it’s the whole point.
The Math: Why Wraps Are the Cheapest Advertising You’ll Buy
A full van wrap at $3,500 lasting 6 years costs about $48/month — less than a single small newspaper ad, and it works 24/7. Industry estimates put vehicle advertising at 30,000–70,000 impressions per day in a town like Georgetown. Even at the low end, that’s roughly a million views per month for $48.
Compare: a $500/month radio spot, $300/month in boosted social posts, or a $200/month directory listing. The wrap wins on cost-per-impression every time — and unlike digital ads, it can’t be scrolled past or blocked.
For trades and home services, there’s a second benefit: trust. A wrapped van pulling into a customer’s driveway says “established business” in a way an unmarked vehicle never will. Customers tell us this constantly.
Partial Wrap vs. Full Wrap vs. Vinyl Lettering
Not sure which tier you need? Here’s the honest breakdown:
Vinyl lettering / decals ($300–$800). Just your logo, phone number, and services cut from vinyl and applied to doors and rear. The budget option — clean, professional, effective. Great for a first work vehicle.
Partial wrap (from $1,500). Lettering plus colour panels on the doors, hood, or rear. Looks designed rather than decorated. The sweet spot for most small businesses.
Full wrap ($2,500–$5,000). The entire vehicle becomes the ad — maximum visibility, colour change included. Best for businesses where the vehicle IS the marketing (food trucks, mobile services, anyone competing on visibility).
We’ll show you examples of all three in the shop and give you fixed quotes for each. No pressure toward the expensive option — the right choice depends on your budget and goals.
Business Signage: Banners, Window Graphics & Storefront Signs
Vinyl banners (from $89). The workhorse of small business advertising. Grand openings, seasonal promotions, “now hiring” — printed in full colour on heavy-duty 13oz vinyl with hems and grommets, ready to hang. Lasts 2–3 years outdoors.
Window graphics (from $129). Perforated window film lets you advertise on your storefront glass while still seeing out — from outside it’s a full-colour ad, from inside it’s just tinted glass. Also available: frosted privacy film with your logo cut out, and simple vinyl lettering for hours and services.
A-frame sidewalk signs (from $149). The highest-ROI sign for main-street businesses. Double-sided, changeable inserts, built to survive Georgetown wind. If you’re on Mill Street, you need one.
Custom storefront signage (free quote). Dimensional letters, backlit signs, panel signs — every storefront is different, so we quote on-site or from photos and measurements. Design, permit guidance, printing, and installation all handled by us.
Our Process: From Idea to Installed
- Consultation (free). Tell us what you need — or just what you’re trying to achieve. We’ll recommend the right product for your budget.
- Design. We create the layout in-house. You get a digital proof to review — unlimited reasonable revisions until it’s right.
- Approval. Nothing prints until you sign off on the proof. The price we quoted is the price you pay.
- Production. Printed on commercial equipment with UV-resistant inks rated for outdoor Canadian use.
- Installation. Vehicle wraps installed in our shop (1–5 days depending on coverage); signage installed on-site.
Typical timeline: design 3–5 days with your feedback, production 2–3 days, installation scheduled at your convenience.
How Long Does a Wrap Last? (And How to Make It Last Longer)
A quality commercial wrap lasts 5–7 years. To get the full life:
- Hand wash only. Pressure washers lift vinyl edges — the #1 killer of wraps. If you must use one, keep it 12+ inches away and never aim at edges or seams.
- Park in shade when possible. UV is the slow killer. A garage or carport adds years.
- Fix small lifts immediately. A peeling edge caught early is a 10-minute fix. Ignored for a season, it becomes a panel replacement.
- Avoid automatic car washes with brushes — touchless is fine.
We warranty our installations — if an edge lifts due to our workmanship, we fix it free.
Frequently Asked Questions
Will a wrap damage my vehicle’s paint?
No — professionally installed commercial vinyl actually protects the paint underneath from UV and stone chips. Removal by a pro leaves the paint intact, often looking better than the unwrapped areas.
How long does installation take?
Partial wraps: 1–2 days. Full wraps: 3–5 days depending on the vehicle. Design time is separate and usually takes a few days with your feedback rounds.
Can you wrap just my business logo and phone number, not the whole vehicle?
Absolutely — partial wraps and vinyl lettering are our most popular option for trades and small businesses. Big visibility, smaller budget.
Do you design the artwork, or do I need to bring it?
We design in-house. Bring a logo (or even just an idea) and we’ll create the layout, send you a proof, and only print when you approve it.
What file do you need for banner printing?
Anything you have — even a phone photo of a sketch. Ideally a PDF or high-res image, but we’ll work with what you’ve got and make it print-ready.
Can I wrap a leased vehicle?
Usually yes — and it’s actually smart, because the wrap protects the paint from lease-return damage charges. Check your lease terms (most allow it as long as it’s professionally removed), and keep our removal receipt.
Do you handle sign permits?
We guide you through Halton Hills’ sign requirements and provide the specs and drawings permit applications need. The application itself is yours to file, but we make it painless.
How much does it cost to remove an old wrap?
Professional removal of one of our wraps runs $300–$600 depending on vehicle size. Removing someone else’s cheap vinyl that’s baked on can cost more — another reason to insist on quality film from the start.
