"Rich did an amazing job for my house. He was thorough, highly skilled, and knowledgeable. He went above and beyond to explain his work product, the warranty, and pointed out some of the minor defects of the glass on my garage door. Rich was a real professional and I would hire him again on my next tinting project. Thank you!"

"We had a great experience with Bob at Arctic Window Tinting in having our first floor windows tinted. He helped us pick the correct tinting for our needs and was extremely informative. Install went fantastic with great communication and we now notice a big difference in cooling and glare reduction in the house. One minor issue popped up during the install but Bob fixed it and handled it very quickly. Very happy!"

"The service went extremely well. The price was not the cheapest, but I think it was the best value for the money. I have been tremendously pleased with the service. We had a problem with the screen door on the sliding glass door that I had done. They came out until it was fixed. They eventually had to replace the screen door."

"Everything went perfectly. Jeremy was fantastic at explaining the process and keeping us updated with the installation. We purchased an Angies list package and we needed an extra window sensor over what was offered in the package. Jeremy went above and beyond and just threw in the extra window sensor without batting an eye."

Window Tinting questions, answered by experts

Costs depend on window size, film quality, UV protection level, and installation complexity.

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.

DIY is possible, but professional application ensures even adhesion, bubble-free results, and longer-lasting performance.

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.

Yes, most professional-grade window films include warranties covering fading, peeling, and bubbling.
