Frequently Asked Questions

How long does it take to tint my home/commercial building?

The amount of time it would take to tint your windows depends on the window size and volume. To get a better understanding of time frame, an average project ranges from 5-9 hrs to complete. However once the windows become larger than 6 feet tall or need ladders/scaffolds for access, it will increase the time to complete the project. If you know the window size and volume of windows, we can give you a time estimate over the phone.

Do you carry lifetime warranty window films?

The answer is YES! All of our films come with a lifetime warranty, meaning if they ever bubble, peel back or fade to another color, we will always replace the tint for FREE. Any film type or shade you choose will always will always be the highest quality for your project.

What if my home or commercial building already has old film on the windows? Will it need to be removed before I have my windows tinted? (aka: Can I tint over tint?)

Old film will need to be removed before installation of new window film. It is always best to have the old film removed by a professional, as the windows can be easily damaged. There is an additional charge for removal of old film, and it will add a few more hours to the process. If the windows have old film that will require removal before installing new film, it is best to let us know before hand.

Can window film increase safety and security?

Does blocking UV rays help prevent fading and deterioration?

Yes. The same sun that brightens a room’s interior can be detrimental to fabrics, furnishings, artwork, and rugs. Ultraviolet rays are the main cause of both fade and deterioration. Window films can screen out 99% of the damaging UV rays that can fade richly colored furniture, tapestries, and artwork. Heat and light also play a part in fading, but using window film to block nearly 100% of UV rays will increase the life of your personal property for years.
