"This window tinting job expanded as I explored options with Gina Nelson, partner in Sunshine State Window Tinting. She understood my goals for privacy, my budget and size of the project--she responded immediately and we scheduled the job - including ordering the materials - in a week. I was delighted with the quality of the work, the speed of progress and the care that the installers took with my property. The windows are gorgeous, clean and PRIVATE."
"Chose this company because Shawn was the owner and the installer and in my experience the quality of an owners work is superior. No exception here, had old tinting removed and replaced on 10 windows and 3 sliding glass doors. Always arrived on time, affordable pricing and quality installation. Would definitely hire again."
"Excellent service. Very efficient, clean, and respectful. My wife and both work from home and we hardly knew they were here. Window tint looks great."
"Carlos did a great job on putting window tinting on my carâ s windows. He also did some of my houseâ s windows. I love how everything looks. Thank you Carlos"
"Florida premium Tinting goes above and beyond. They have tinted all of my vehicles and company vehicles and stand behind their work. I recommend Mike to anyone one that has tinting needs home, office or automotive. A+ service"
"Brian was wonderful! He assessed our needs and quoted on what he knew we really needed. He tinted our home and did a wonderful job. He was on time, professional and his customer service is excellent! Shortly after, I referred him and he tinted my brother's office as well! I highly recommend his services."

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.
To darken your windows without curtains, try installing window film or even installing an awning outside your windows. Window film is a DIY-friendly option with many different darkness levels you can choose from to fit your desired look. Awnings can also help by casting shade over your window, though this isn’t feasible for every home.
If your window film doesn’t come with an installation kit and its own application solution, you can make your own—but don’t use soap! Instead, use 1 teaspoon of baby shampoo mixed with a gallon of bottled water. Make sure the bucket in which you mix this solution is completely clean.
Typically, triple-pane windows made with krypton gas filling are the most energy efficient. A window’s frame, glass, design, and installation all affect its energy efficiency. These windows, in particular, are designed highly effectively in terms of their ability to insulate.
Energy-efficient windows are judged on their performance according to a few different factors, including heat transfer, air leakage, light transference, and condensation resistance. If you're unsure whether a window is energy-efficient, look for an ENERGY STAR® label from the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA). If various products, including windows, meet energy-efficiency standards set by the federal government, the EPA issues this label to help consumers identify energy-efficient products.
