"Susan did a great job with her recommendations of colors for our blinds. The installer came on time and finished the job quickly. It was a little pricey but the room looks great with our new blinds."

"Hired to weed , mulch and edge beds. Found out he also did painting so I asked him to do an exterior painting and repair project. Did both jobs simultaneously and I was happy with both. I will call him again when the need arises."

"Arctic Window Tinting did a fantastic job. Bob was very responsive to our emails and telephone calls. He came out and looked at what we wanted to do. Then he showed use different products and told us the different ratings. Once we decided on the product he was able to schedule the installation (Tuesday) and 2 days later the film was up (Thursday). He even added two additional windows to my order the evening before they were to perform the service. Mike installed the window film. He was prompt and extremely professional. If you are looking to add window film (for privacy, heat reduction, and/or preventing harmful UV rays) then give them a call. You will not be disappointed!"

"It went well with A-PLUS Window Tinting. They were very easy to work with and did a nice job. They did a good job. I thought they were very reasonable because it was a lot of work. It's a  lot of window, if I couldn't have that I'd probably get them all replaced so you can see how much money it saved us if you think about it. It was four sliders, two skylights and then four other windows. It was a lot of work. They did a nice job and it come with a nice warranty. They said they would come out and fix it but I haven't had them come out and fix anything so it's good. I wouldn't hesitate to have them come back."

Window Tinting questions, answered by experts

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. 

The most popular treatment for a skylight is skylight shades. There are five primary types: manual, motorized, blackout, cellular//honeycomb, and Venetian. Motorized skylight shades are the most convenient, especially for skylights that are higher up, but manual shades are the most cost-effective treatments. Cellular/honeycomb shades are a perfect option for anyone who wants energy efficiency and an attractive look.

While you need heat to peel back window film, the tint will often leave behind adhesive residue. You can use chemicals such as isopropyl alcohol or acetone to remove the residue, though hardware stores sell specialized solutions for this purpose as well. You can also use soapy water in a pinch!

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.

Home window tinting is generally considered a worthwhile investment due to its numerous benefits. The primary advantages include:

  • Energy Efficiency: Tinting reduces solar heat gain, which lowers cooling costs in warmer months. It can also help retain heat during cooler months, leading to savings on your electric bill that may eventually exceed the initial cost of the tinting.

  • UV Protection: It blocks harmful UV rays, protecting your family and pets from sun damage. This also prevents fading and extends the life of your furniture, flooring, and other interior furnishings.

  • Increased Comfort: By regulating heat, window tinting helps maintain a more comfortable and even temperature throughout your home. It also reduces glare on TVs and other electronic screens.

  • Enhanced Privacy and Security: Tinting makes it more difficult for outsiders to see into your home. Additionally, certain types of window films can increase security by helping the glass withstand trauma from break-in attempts or severe weather.

It's important to note that not all window tints offer the same combination of benefits. For example, security films are designed for impact resistance but may offer less UV protection, while ceramic tints excel at blocking heat and UV rays but do not provide the same level of security.
