5 Questions to Ask Before Picking a Residential Window Tinting Service

1. What Are the Different Types of Residential Tint Available?

Did you know that 76% of the sunlight that shines on your windows will enter and subsequently heat up your home? That means your air conditioner will have to work harder to keep your home cool. 

Just as there are different levels of tint for car windows, there are different types of tinting for your home. Ask potential vendors about the pros and cons of the different brands and styles available.



You'll also want to ask for information about how much of the sun's heat you can expect to be blocked out by each type of tint. Once you tell them more about your home's specifics, they'll be able to recommend the best option for you. 

2. What Can I Expect During the Installation Process?

Before embarking on any home improvement project, it's important to have your expectations set appropriately. Ask potential window tint installers the following questions about the installation process:

• Approximately how long will it take?
• Do I need to be home during the installation?
• How many installers can I expect at my home? 
• Is there anything I should do to prep my windows beforehand?



It's important to work with a company that is transparent about the process and will answer any questions you may have. 

3. Are You Licensed and Insured?

You should only work with a home improvement company if it is properly licensed to do the services it is selling.

It's also important that they have the necessary insurance to work on your home. If something goes wrong during the installation and the vendor you've selected isn't insured, you could be liable. 



When meeting with potential vendors, ask to see proof of license and insurance. Any reputable company will have no problem showing you the documents. 

4. What Do Your Past Customers Say About Working With You?

Reading through references and reviews from previous customers is the best way to learn more about what to expect when working with a window tinting service.



Ask potential vendors if they have testimonials you can read and also look through online reviews on their social media pages. This will give you an unbiased look at what it's like to work with them. 

5. How Much Will It Cost?

Of course, at the end of the day, price is one of the biggest determining factors in whether or not you're ready to work with a company. 



Don't be afraid to ask if they have any specials or financing options available. And, ask for a written estimate of the window tinting fees at the end of your meeting.
