"I couldnt be more pleased with the service, price and quality of the workmanship. Aaron was extremely helpful with the material selection and the resulting installation on some odd shaped custom windows looks awesome! In fact, I'm having him do the windows in another room next week. I HIGHLY recommend this company."

"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."

"Kevin and John were great! Kevin put up 2 samples for us to choose from, after he helped us narrow down choices, within 2 days of contacting him. He sent estimate immediately, we signed off on it and installation was set for 5 days later. Entire process was very efficient. Great customer service!"

Window Tinting questions, answered by experts

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.

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!

The best windows to tint are those that get the most direct sunlight—particularly sunroom windows or windows facing the south or east where the sun shines most brightly throughout the day. If your pets have favorite windows to lie in front of, you may want to consider those, as well, to protect their skin from sun damage.

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.
