Get matched with top window tinters in Gilmanton, NH

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.

Home window tinting costs around $600 on average, and most homeowners pay between $150 and $1,600 for the service, depending on a few different factors. The number of windows you want tinted and the size of those windows are the most significant cost factors, as each window and each additional square foot of tint will add to your total. The quality of the tint itself is another important cost factor to consider, as additional coatings like low-emissivity (low-E) treatment will increase the cost of the materials.

The most energy-efficient windows are double—or triple-pane windows with low-emissivity (Low-E) coatings and gas fills between the panes. These windows reduce heat transfer, prevent drafts, and help maintain a consistent indoor temperature. But if replacing windows isn’t in your budget, pairing your existing windows with insulating window treatments can still make a noticeable difference in home comfort and monthly bills. 

Home window tinting is usually worth the investment because it reduces the amount of solar heat that enters through your window glass, thereby reducing the cost of cooling your home in the warmer months. Over the lifespan of your tinted windows, your electric bill savings will likely total more than you spend on your window tinting. Additionally, tinting protects your floors and furniture from harmful UV rays from the sun, so the window tint can extend the life of those items, saving you money over time. Lastly, tinting adds to your home's privacy and can help increase security.
