Does Window Tinting affect my Home Value?

Window films add style and glamour to homes that make them jump out to the eye. We have some designer films that can transform ordinary windows into stunning designs, imitating much more expensive types of glass for a fraction of the cost.

Energy Efficiency carries huge weight into today’s buyers market. With so many homes to choose from, having one that boasts lower bills can set you apart from the pack. Window Films prevent sunlight from fully penetrating the glass, which means up to 80% of the sun’s heat is deflected — without affecting light levels! This effect is so powerful that it measurably lowers air conditioning bills during the summer — as much as 30%!

The same solar-heat blocking properties of window film also mean all the UV light from the sun is blocked. Over time, the same harmful UV rays that will give you a sunburn will also bleach your furnishings, carpets, and hardwood floors. A careful home buyer is sure to notice fading when doing their walkthrough, and knows that if they buy this home, it will only get worse. Don’t let it happen.

Nobody likes to feel like neighbors or passers-by can just look into our homes and scrutinize your daily life. Opportunistic thieves can also check your home’s layout and furnishings, see who’s home and when, and might decide to make your residence their next target. Tinted windows can act like expensive one-way privacy glass — You can see out, but nobody can see in.

No matter how a house is built and configured, there is always that one room, at that one time of day, where the sunlight pours in. You have difficulty watching TV, working on the computer, or just sitting in your favorite chair because the sun is causing annoying glare. Sure, you put blinds on the windows long ago, but closing those shuts out all the natural light and makes you feel like you’re in a bunker. The best solution — tint your windows and cut the glare, so you can now watch TV or use the computer in peace.
