Any pics?
Screen on boot- red tint will go away prior to OSX loading to desktop.
Desktop:
Note: red tint will come back if the screen goes to sleep, lowers brightness level, etc. Basically if the back light requires "warming up" to full brightness, the red tint will return, but fades away to normal again.

Red tint at start means the backlight on the LCD is dying. You will need to replace the entire panel unless you replace the CCFL bulb. The CCFL is very difficult to replace. It is not something that simply pops and and pops out.
