"Jeff is very trustworthy and easy to work with. He’s also an expert who does a perfect job. The tint for a large, high, angled window was applied flawlessly. I’m thrilled to have the sun managed and my Southern California Edison bill knocked down to size!"

"I was looking for a professional window tinting company for a a store front window replacement project I was doing for a client and Extreme Window Tinting was highly recommended to me by a fellow contractor. The owner Shawn met with me personally at the site and was highly professional. He explained and demonstrated to us how the window tinting reduces the heat transfer from outside to inside and the different types of tinting they offer . He also let us know about the window shades they install and continued to show us the shades and the color options for that as well. We hired them to do the windows and the window shades. The job was done in one day and we’re able to do it with in the scheduled time frame. His team was very professional and organised. I would highly recommend hiring them for your window tinting and roller shade needs."

"The guy came to my home and picked up the bumper cover, painted it over a few days and then returned the painted item.
They did an excellent job perfectly matching the color of our car.  It was a metallic paint and cost a bit more then I expected, but then again, I had no idea how much it would cost as I did no comparison shopping.

Window Tinting questions, answered by experts

The visibility through tinted house windows depends on the lighting. During the day, when it is brighter outside, privacy film prevents people from seeing into your home. However, this effect reverses at night. If you have lights on inside, it becomes brighter indoors than outdoors, allowing people to see inside. To optimize privacy, you can select from various shades of film, ranging from lighter to darker, which affects how much is visible from the outside.

Expert installation optimizes insulation properties, cutting energy costs and enhancing home comfort year-round.

The ideal thickness of window film depends on various factors and specific needs. Thicker films generally offer increased durability and enhanced security benefits. They are also typically more effective at reducing heat and blocking UV rays. However, thinner options may be preferable for some applications, such as decorative or privacy films. Thinner films are easier to apply and provide adequate privacy without compromising visibility. Ultimately, the best thickness of window film will depend on your specific requirements, desired benefits, and the recommendations of professional installers.

While it is possible to install home window tint yourself, it is a challenging task that is often best left to professionals. The process can be tedious and time-consuming, requiring steady hands and a great deal of patience, especially for a first-time installer.

Common mistakes in DIY applications include visible bubbles, imperfections, and film that either hangs over the edges or doesn't fully cover the glass. These errors not only look unprofessional and detract from your home's curb appeal but can also reduce the tint's effectiveness in blocking sunlight and heat. If you have struggled with applying protective films to smaller items like phones or tablets, you may find this task particularly difficult.

Attempting the installation yourself and making a mistake can lead to wasted material and the additional cost of hiring a professional to fix the issues or redo the job. Although hiring a professional involves labor costs, it typically guarantees a high-quality, seamless appearance and saves you from having to do the work over again.

The most popular tint percentage for home windows is 35%. Generally, most homeowners choose a visible light transmission (VLT) between 50% and 35%, where lower numbers mean less sunlight enters the home. A 35% tint blocks over half the incoming light while still allowing plenty of natural light, which can improve energy efficiency and comfort. If privacy is a primary concern, you can opt for a tint of 50% or lower to make it more difficult for people to see inside. However, keep in mind that very dark, thick tints may offer fewer energy-efficiency benefits.

Unlike cars, there are no laws regulating window tint percentages on homes, so you can choose what you think is best. It is often a good idea to hire a professional, as they can show you samples of how different tint levels will look in your specific property, helping you make the right choice.
