Window Tinting for Homes, Retail Stores & Offices

Q. Describe the most common types of jobs you do for your clients.

A. Window film for homeowners with a Dual reflective film. DR films offer high heat reduction but are not very dark. Most people are surprised with how clear it is and how well it really works. If people need dark film to cut the glare, we have that too

Q. Describe three recent jobs you've completed.

A. We just completed a physical therapy office in Delray Beach. The owners thought they needed new A/C but with the right film in place, they can cool the space and don't need to replace their A/C system.
We completed a large house in Delray Beach. They have high vaulted ceilings and were overwhelmed by the heat and the glare. DRDS 25 solved the problem.

Q. What advice do you have for a customer looking to hire a provider like you?

A. Look for the people that actually have a company. If you let just anybody into your home or office you are taking a personal and financial risk. Ask for a copy of the Occupational License or Tax Certificate and insurance information. Ask for references and check them! Trust your gut too. Would you be comfortable with this person in your home. If they are professional, they will look it, sound it and have all the tools and credentials to prove it.
If you have something done "on the cheap" will you be able to afford have it done over correctly?

Q. If you were a customer, what do you wish you knew about your trade? Any inside secrets to share?

A. I wish people would get over their fear of making their house dark. I am sitting here on a rainy day and there is film on every room in the house. We have the blinds open and no lights on. Even on a sunny day, I only close the blinds to watch TV. The film blocks the heat, not the light.
Window film actually helps keep your home lighter. Without it, you are closing your (and by closing, I mean sacrificing) drapes and blinds to control heat and fading.
Also, the better products which cost more really are worth the extra few bucks. They stay clearer longer and don't deteriorate over time. I would put ceramic film everywhere except where I really want darkness or glass reduction.

Q. What important information should buyers have thought through before seeking you out?

A. Buyers should remember to hire the best and buy the best. Better quality always pays off over time. Redoing window film is no picnic. Many installers have closed up to get away from warranty service. Better products don't go bad and in the minute (less than 1/5 of 1%) chance that there is a problem there is a strong local contractor and a strong manufacturer to back it up.

Q. What do you like most about your job?

A. We put on a show. We make it look easy and people really like having their windows treated. It really makes a difference.
I also like to work in different places all the time. We go all over the county and I have been in some incredible homes and met some incredible people. We get to go behind they scenes and interact with all types of people, from the guy that runs the airport down to the gate keepers and everyone in between.

Q. Tell us about a recent job you did that you are particularly proud of.

A. We treated a really beautiful modern home that has tons of glass. The heat and fading rays were proving too much. They had solar screens installed, which helped, but weren't really enough. We used a light ceramic film that blocks 63% of the sun's heat energy. They reported a 15% drop in their utility bill.
