"Hired Glare Guardian for window tinting of my atrium windows in the kitchen. These atrium windows are curved and the job is a challenge, but Daylan and his team completed this task flawless. I was impressed with their skills and the final product. We discussed about the best tinting gradient and I was happy with the coverage and privacy this tinting gives. And keeps the kitchen area cool"

"Tom has done so many of our windows for privacy film.This time security tinting to our front door as well as privacy film to it.His price is extremely fair.I had gotten a price quote for the same two applications on our front door and it was double the price that Tom asked for.Not only that but he turns out top quality! We are so grateful for his presence in our lives.My husband and I are now retired and so have a budget.Tom works with us since we want more done to our windows in the near future.His personality is very endearing-very much a people person!:) Excellent service !!Cathy and Mark Wolferman"

"We had them install UV protective coating on our windows. They gave me a fair quote, scheduled the installers in a reasonable time frame and showed up. Their workers were careful with our stuff and cleaned up after themselves. It is a pleasure not to have to close our blinds all day long now to protect our art and furnishings."

Window Tinting questions, answered by experts

The most popular way to remove home window tint is by using a hairdryer. Most people already have one in their home, but if you don’t, you can buy one for as little as $15. All you need to do is turn the hairdryer to its hottest and highest setting and run it over the window tint for a few minutes. Then, you can easily peel it away. You may need some goo remover for any leftover adhesive, but this DIY could be free for many people.    

The ideal thickness of window film depends on various factors and specific needs. Thicker films generally offer increased durability and enhanced security benefits. They are also typically more effective at reducing heat and blocking UV rays. However, thinner options may be preferable for some applications, such as decorative or privacy films. Thinner films are easier to apply and provide adequate privacy without compromising visibility. Ultimately, the best thickness of window film will depend on your specific requirements, desired benefits, and the recommendations of professional installers.

The visibility through tinted house windows depends on the lighting. During the day, when it is brighter outside, privacy film prevents people from seeing into your home. However, this effect reverses at night. If you have lights on inside, it becomes brighter indoors than outdoors, allowing people to see inside. To optimize privacy, you can select from various shades of film, ranging from lighter to darker, which affects how much is visible from the outside.

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. 

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.
