"Great customer service. Took extreme care coming in and out of house so as not ding doors, walls, floors, etc. Placed mats on floor where ladders/equipment were set-up. The installation was excellent; care taken to ensure application of tint film was done properly - no bubbles, no gaps with uncovered areas of the window, etc. Very pleased with all aspects of the job. Also, the pricing was competitive with that from other quotes obtained. Aaron was professional and personable. I would absolutely recommend them!"

"Susan Burke responded to my inquiry on Boxing Day, met me the following day for measurements and discuss film option then sent quotes within a few hours that were within reason and price range. Bethany Rudy followed up to schedule installation immediately thereafter and was kind enough to get us scheduled during the holiday week while I was off work. The installer (I believe Jeremiah) was punctual, professional and expeditious. It took less than an hour on a very large elevated window. The entire team was courteous, prompt, efficient and professional. Highly recommend."

"John Ross installed ceramic window tint in all my windows. The house seems cooler. Be aware when they quote $50 per window, it means one pane. If you have double pane windows, that cost $100 per window. John was friendly and did a great job."

"About as smoothly as anything can go. They did a wonderful job. Jonathan who is the owner was there the entire time from the job was quoted to the time the last window was finished. His crew is very experienced and was very professional and courteous. I thought this was a good experience and I will use them again. The best part was that his price came and 20% less than everyone else but the quality was still excellent.

Window Tinting questions, answered by experts

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.

Often, window film won’t stick if the glass is too dirty; dust and debris can prevent the adhesive from working. Make sure to clean the glass thoroughly before installing the window film. Low-quality film, which may have a weaker adhesive, might also be the cause of your window film’s inability to stick.

No, it isn’t necessary to have energy-efficient windows. However, if you care about your energy bill and making your windows more energy efficient, fixing any heat, UV, or air transfer issues is an excellent way to lower your bills and keep your house cooler in the summer and warmer in the winter.

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. 

Tinting your windows will make your house darker since it will prevent some sunlight from getting inside. While you can choose a window film that is on the lighter side, there will still be reduced sunlight. If natural light is important to you, tinted windows might not be the best choice for your home.
