"Well worth the price and workmanship. Gary’s took the time to explain in simple terms about what type of window tints good for me. I had other quote from other companies and they showed me they are competitive with their price. When the 2- men crew showed to do the work, they were fast and efficient. Very friendly and cleaned all they mess before they left. If and when I need more residential window tints I would definitely call Gary! They also took over my window warranty as they were less than a year old at the time."

"Alex is a sincere and dedicated entrepreneur. Of course, I have never met or seen him before. When setting up my new business, I looked into business owners related to his field through the Angis list. He was the first to contact me, and he was the most proactive in understanding my needs. He arrived punctually on the scheduled day without a single delay. He demonstrated incredible professionalism in his work and possesses the thoughtful communication skills that clients require. I believe this stems from his good character and personality. Throughout the entire time he was working, I felt as if I were chatting and laughing with a childhood friend I had known for a long time, deeply sharing and understanding each other's lives. Before I go off-topic, I want to say this: If you value privacy or protection for your home or business windows, I highly recommend contacting Alex. He will prove through his work that your choices are reliable and trustworthy."

There was a delay getting the proper materials of 1 day but Solatek showed up on time got straight to work answering all of my wife's questions, completed the tinting in under an hour and cleaned up all scraps/replaced removed window valance/blinds. All done very professionally. I would certainly recommend Solatek for window tinting. Mike Taylor"

"ROYAL TINT IS THE PERFECT COMPANY FOR RESIDENTIAL WINDOW TINT. THEY ARE KNOWLEDGEABLE, PERSONABLE; PERFECTIONISTS. THEY TINTED 19 LARGE SEMI-CIRCLES ABOVE MY LARGE RECTANGLE WINDOWS. I WOULD HAVE HAD THE 19 RECTANGLE WINDOWS TINTED, IF MY WIFE HAD LET ME. ALREADY NOTICING A SLIGHT DROP IN INDOOR TEMPERATURE. I HIGHLY RECOMMEND ROYAL TINT I AM VERY SATISFIED"

Window Tinting FAQs, answered by experts

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.

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.

You can easily and cheaply use tin foil or cardboard to black out your windows. Save a pretty penny by cutting either material to the size of your windows and taping it to the window. This is one of the easiest and most budget-friendly blackout solutions, but it definitely isn’t the most aesthetically friendly.  

Home window tinting is generally considered a worthwhile investment due to its numerous benefits. The primary advantages include:

  • Energy Efficiency: Tinting reduces solar heat gain, which lowers cooling costs in warmer months. It can also help retain heat during cooler months, leading to savings on your electric bill that may eventually exceed the initial cost of the tinting.

  • UV Protection: It blocks harmful UV rays, protecting your family and pets from sun damage. This also prevents fading and extends the life of your furniture, flooring, and other interior furnishings.

  • Increased Comfort: By regulating heat, window tinting helps maintain a more comfortable and even temperature throughout your home. It also reduces glare on TVs and other electronic screens.

  • Enhanced Privacy and Security: Tinting makes it more difficult for outsiders to see into your home. Additionally, certain types of window films can increase security by helping the glass withstand trauma from break-in attempts or severe weather.

It's important to note that not all window tints offer the same combination of benefits. For example, security films are designed for impact resistance but may offer less UV protection, while ceramic tints excel at blocking heat and UV rays but do not provide the same level of security.

Energy-efficient windows are judged on their performance according to a few different factors, including heat transfer, air leakage, light transference, and condensation resistance. If you're unsure whether a window is energy-efficient, look for an ENERGY STAR® label from the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA). If various products, including windows, meet energy-efficiency standards set by the federal government, the EPA issues this label to help consumers identify energy-efficient products.
