These are some of the most common questions asked about window
tinting in general, if you have a question that is not answered
in this forum please e-mail us and we will do my best to answer
it for you.
Q: Why would I want to tint my home or office?
A: Several reasons. The film we use is more efficient than any glass
can be when it comes to solar heat reduction and ultra-violet protection.
The films can also give a home or office a more consistent appearance
from outside. Window films also help reduce glare on televisions
and computer screens, and make your home or office more efficient
year round by keeping the heat in during the winter and out during
the summer.
Q: How do you price residential/commercial tinting?
A: The pricing is based on the square footage of the job, the type
of film used and the size and location of the windows. (skylights
and hard to get to windows cost more accordingly). We do free onsite
estimates.
Q: Is there a difference in residential/commercial films
versus automotive films?
A: Yes! Residential/commercial films are made to last and withstand
a different set of conditions and needs. The residential/commercial
films we use have a different adhesive system that allows us to
put a lifetime guarantee on most of our residential films. These
films are also made to be efficient without being as dark as automotive
films.
Q: If I tint my home will it make it dark?
A: Most of the residential films we use are almost unnoticeable
when installed in your home, but you get the benefit of 99% ultra-violet
protection along with up to 73% solar heat reduction.
Q: Will tinting my home give me privacy?
A: Yes and No. Any time you tint a piece of glass it will make it
harder to see in from the outside, even if it is a light tint from
the inside. We also have privacy tints that are mirrored that give
you a great deal of privacy in your home or office during the day.
However as dusk falls and the light outside becomes darker than
the interior of the house it reverses the effect and makes the windows
reflective to the inside. Therefore it is possible for people to
see into your home or office at night. The best example of this
is any downtown area. If you drive downtown during the day and look
at all the office buildings you usually can not see in, but if you
drive downtown at night you can see who is working and who is not.
