"Gee, but we wish we had seen these reviews before contacting Executive Window Services to clean our windows in March of 2018. We have nothing but regret ... We had used Executive Window Services several times over the past 5 years and had mostly been pleased ... until this year. We are so displeased with our most recent experience that we have submitted a formal complaint with the Better Business Bureau; have written a formal letter of complaint to Shane, who we believe is the owner – (can’t really tell) - but apparently is uninvolved in the business now; and are currently in discussions with an attorney trying to determine the best remedy for our situation. Not only was the window cleaning services marginal, but the charges for the service were double what we had been charged by Executive Window services in previous years. What was most odd/disturbing about this visit is ... without saying a word to us … in the middle of having our windows cleaned by a "one man crew" (David) ... two other men showed up and started measuring our windows, supposedly because “David" said we "needed to have 3 windows replaced". It was totally news to us. We were stunned. However, being conscientious homeowners, we wanted to do the responsible thing. So, we put down a deposit. Later that evening, we were confronted with an unrelated unplanned expense that we realized would prevent us from making window replacement a priority … so we immediately contacted "David" to cancel our order. Bottom line, David, the current "foreman/workman" (not really sure of his role entirely) owes us money for a window replacement order we canceled within 18 hours of putting down the deposit. After we canceled, our order, he told us he would return our check to us - no problem. But, he didn't return it, he cashed it! He gave countless excuses as to how that happened when we called him on it; he apologized; and then he promised to refund our money. As of this date, we have NOT received our refund, we have NOT heard back from David - nor have we heard from Shane. Neither has responded to our many phone calls, text messages, emails ... and now, the Better Business Bureau complaint. The biggest disappointment and watch out for any potential customer is ... David comes across as very charming and presents himself as a "caring" professional. Don't believe it. We will never do business with Executive Window Services again. Be warned."

"Lone Star did an exceptional job overall, providing professional results with professional people. They make no false claims and set no false expectations. What they say, is what they do. Showing up on time, measuring each and every window, consulting with me concerning best colors to coordinate with other exterior colors, and finally executing within the expected timeframes. No surprises, very affordable, with an excellent (lifetime) warranty. The products Lone Star uses are very effective. The temperature differences, and cost savings during the summer has been noticeable. West facing rooms, once abandoned at 4 in the afternoon due to solar loading, are now as comfortable as any other room in the house. Highly recommended."

"Install was easy. Up front cost was pretty low with Angie's List coupon. Monthly price is a little high compared to competing companies. Response time with alarms is excellent. I was advised to use glass break alarms within 10 ft of my first floor windows, which we installed correctly. I asked prior to installation if having one in the kitchen would cause false alarms due to dishes clanging, etc. I was told the glass break alarms are configured to a precise frequency that alarms with breaking glass. So, not a "no", but not really an answer. Well, every time we cook dinner, wash dishes or empty the dish washer, the kitchen glass break alarm gives a warning which would sound the alarm if it was set. This has caused us a number of false alarms while we've been away due to shifting bowls or plates in our drying rack. For the first several we've had to pay our police department $120 to check the house, and I was only notified after the first alarm that there was a cheaper option for a security company to drive by to check for a break in."

"They replaced the ole ADT system, which depended on a landline (phone) with a wireless system. The monitors on the windows are sensitive to shock, so if a window is broken, the alarm sounds. They monitors are small and do not require drilling into the window frames. I am very satisfied with the new system."

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.

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.

Window security film won’t prevent break-ins or stop your window from shattering from impact during extreme weather like hurricanes or tornadoes. However, applying security film is relatively inexpensive, and it can make breaking into your home significantly harder—often hard enough to deter burglars entirely—and keep your window from shattering on your floor after impact. For these reasons, window security film is often a worthwhile investment that helps protect your property.

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.
