Why Dallas Homes Need Window Tinting
With summer temperatures regularly exceeding 100°F in the Dallas-Fort Worth area, your home's windows become a major source of unwanted heat gain. In fact, up to 40% of your home's cooling energy is lost through windows. This forces your HVAC system to work overtime, driving up energy bills and reducing comfort.
Hot Spots
Untreated windows create uncomfortable hot zones in rooms
High Bills
Texas homeowners pay some of the highest summer electric bills
Fading
Intense sunlight fades furniture, floors, and artwork quickly
Window tinting addresses all these issues—at a fraction of the cost of replacing your windows.

Residential Window Tinting FAQ
Will window film make my home too dark?
Not at all! Modern window films come in various light transmission levels, from nearly invisible to moderately tinted. We'll help you choose a film that reduces heat and glare while maintaining the natural light you love. Ceramic films, in particular, offer maximum heat rejection with minimal visible tint.
How long does residential window film last?
Quality residential window film typically lasts 15-20+ years when properly installed and maintained. Most films come with manufacturer warranties covering defects, peeling, bubbling, and color change. We use only premium films from trusted manufacturers.
Will window film void my window warranty?
Most window manufacturers now accept window film, especially films designed for dual-pane windows. We carry films specifically engineered for all window types and can help you choose options compatible with your warranty.
Can window film be applied to double-pane windows?
Yes! However, it's important to choose the right film. Some films absorb too much heat and can stress the seal in dual-pane windows. We use films specifically rated for insulated glass units (IGUs) to ensure safe, long-lasting performance.
How do I clean windows with film?
Window film is easy to maintain! Simply clean with a soft cloth and ammonia-free window cleaner. Avoid abrasive pads or harsh chemicals. Most films have a scratch-resistant coating, but gentle cleaning ensures the longest life and best appearance.
How long does installation take?
Most residential installations are completed in one day. A typical home with 10-15 windows takes 4-6 hours. Larger projects may require additional time. We work efficiently while ensuring meticulous attention to detail.
