"SunControl was great to work with! Very respectful of me and my house and cleaned up when they were done. I had them do both window tinting and blinds. Although it wasn't a large job, I was treated as though it was. I would definitely use them again."

"I hired Fox Window Tints to remove and replace the window tint in my master bathroom. When they arrived they quickly realized the old adhesive was very strong and a huge pain to remove. Despite this, the team kept a very positive attitude and very diligently removed every piece of pesky old window tint. I love the end result and will definitely hire them again! Thank you!"

"They worked with us to figure out how to reach a tall window that had a large piece of furniture in front of it. They were on time and cleaned up after they were finished. They were efficient and personable. I would recommend them."

"The handyman, Paul, was punctual, professional and did quality work. He replaced the small section of my wood soffit that had water damage with new wood, painted it and caulked. He cleaned up the area when he was done. Paul also re-secured several of my window shutters that had loose screws. He spray painted the screw caps to match the color of my shutters."

Window Tinting questions, answered by experts

Your homeowners insurance provider may decrease your premium if you improve the security of your home with window security film. You can contact your insurer to determine whether there will be a change in cost after applying this addition. If there is a decrease in your homeowners insurance premium or deductible, it will likely only be available if your window film is installed by a professional window film installer.

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.

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. 

Some frosted glass sprays can handle the outdoors, but most of them aren't built for it. Sprays made for exterior use will say so clearly on the label. Anything marked “interior use only” can't hold up against rain, UV exposure, or changing temperatures without peeling, fading, or yellowing. Outdoor-rated sprays are typically more durable, but even then, proper prep and application matter. Before spraying anything outside, double-check the product instructions. If it doesn’t specifically mention exterior use, skip it. 

Tinting reduces glare, blocks UV rays, enhances privacy, and improves energy efficiency.
