Can I tint my house windows myself?

<div><p>It is possible to tint your house windows yourself, but hiring a professional window tinter is usually best. Window tint is relatively easy to apply, but getting a clean application that looks seamless is challenging. It’s easy to end up with a tint film that hangs over the edges of your glass or falls short of it, and without experience and the proper tools, you could end up with unsightly bubbles. Hiring a professional to tint your windows adds labor costs, but you’ll receive a high-quality tint appearance and not have to redo it.</p></div>

How much does window tinting cost for a house?

<div><p>The average <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/house-window-tinting-cost.htm#">cost to tint your home windows</a> is around <b>$600</b> or around <b>$75 per window</b>. However, it’s not uncommon for prices to range from <b>$150</b> to <b>$1,600</b>. Your total project cost will depend on the amount and size of the windows. Window tinting can help make your home more energy efficient by blocking harsh sunlight, protect your furniture from fading, and create more privacy for your household.</p><p>Consider other essential cost factors, including the following:</p><ul><li><p>Shade and quality of the tint</p></li><li><p>Type of tint </p></li><li><p>Labor cost of hiring window tinter</p></li></ul><p></p></div>

What is the best tint percentage for a house?

<div><p>A 35% tint is the most popular for home windows. This level is significantly darker than the legal tint limit for car windows—usually around 70%. At 35% tint, more than half of the incoming light is blocked. This tint percentage still allows for plenty of natural light to fill your space while drastically improving your home’s energy efficiency and comfort in your living space. If you hire a professional to tint your windows, they usually bring screens to show you what different tints will look like to make it easier to choose what’s right for your home.</p></div>

Who tints home windows?

<div><p>Most window installation and repair companies can handle putting tint film over your existing windows, but it’s best to hire a company that specializes in window tinting. This decision will result in the best application for the cleanest look, and it usually means you’ll get a better professional opinion about the type of tint and tint level that makes the most sense for your home and personal preferences.</p></div>

Is home window tinting worth it?

<div><p>Most homeowners find that hiring a professional window tinter to tint their house windows is well worth the investment, as there are several key benefits that home window tint offers. These include the following:</p><ul><li><p>Reduced UV light, meaning less fading of furniture and flooring</p></li><li><p>Improved home energy efficiency, lowering electric bills</p></li><li><p>Improved privacy</p></li><li><p>More comfortable and even temperature in your living area</p></li><li><p>Reduces glare on screens on TVs and other electronics</p></li></ul><p></p></div>

"Dennis came out on the scheduled appointment. He worked quickly and professionally. The tinted privacy film on garage windows were better than expected. Only small issue was that the price quoted was not what was invoiced even though I did give measurements before the appointment. Was told the price difference was because film had to be cut and was not the standard 12x36 . I still would hire in future but hope information regarding up charge for cutting film"

"It's now time for an update: Although, Chris the owner contacted me to make full restoration to my car with the broken and missing parts, to which he took ownership of - no resolution. He also in person told me he was going to rewrap my car to include the door jams which were included in the original quote. First it was not during Christmas it's my slow time. Then it was I am broke, trying to barely stay afloat, soon but not now. No contact has been made since I contacted him again. Tom Martino has invited me to speak on LIVE with him regarding this place, in which I plan to do so. Using this company was a NIGHTMARE that won't end. They approached me to repair hail damage, and wrap my car which was brand new Mercedes C300. They quoted me a fair price, and quoted me 7-10 days for completion. I gave them possession of my car 5/28 which was a Saturday morning. Monday morning they had withdrawn the full $3400. out of my account. I couldn't believe it! Long story short, I was forced to swipe my CC again to get possession of my car on 7/13. It took them that long to give me my car back. They would not let me see the work to approve it prior to swiping my CC for an additional unauthorized $800. The owner said wait for the big reveal, as my car was locked up in the back, he says, "let's handle the CC paperwork first". They then rolled my car out - They had taken the liberty to put a black out kit on my car without permission. I was discovering missing parts from a brand new car (interior roof lights). They had quoted to do the door jams, those were not done. I questioned the owner about this, he said, "well I didn't do what you were quoted because that would have cost me an additional $1k and I am not losing money." There were dents were on the hood, which I was told he bought a new one. I stood with horror, and I told him most business owners stand behind their employees quotes. He just said, "Well the sales person was fired, and I'm not loosing money." So, I am left with a wrap that wasn't prepped properly so it is flapping on the undercarriage, door jams that don't match the wrap, handles that were not wrapped at all, a broken grill, and missing interior parts. I have not had any resolution, or care from the owner to make things right either. PLEASE BEWARE OF THIS GUY! Slim shady, and charges you upfront. DO BEWARE: if he has your signature and swipes your credit card, there is no recourse for you but small claims court. Can you imagine a company having your car for months and you not receiving the car back to your satisfaction."
