The excessive brightness of the sun can make your home or work environment very uncomfortable, and can cause a number of health issues, ranging from headaches caused by sun glare to eye and skin problems caused by harmful UV rays. Our tinted window films block up to 99% of UV rays as well as reduce the excess visible light. These tinted window films come in a variety of grades and finishes to ensure that you get the ideal amount of light in your home or office.
No but we can recommend local glass companies. Ask for details.
Short answer no. There are two options. In home consultation or by sending your windows sizes online. Both can be done by filling out our Request Form.
The most sun effected areas are the primary reason for home window tinting. Usually the entire residency is completly tinted for maximum heat and UV protection.
Yes, even if you have one window! There is no job too big or small for us to install window film.
Window tint is installed on the inside of windows. We don't install window tint on the outside of windows because the manufacture doesn't warranty it.
Yes. We use mild soapy water (Dawn) to clean the windows. It is safe for animals and the enviroment.
Most installations can be done in one day for a single or two story home. Sometimes a two story house can take up to two or three days depending on the number of windows. Our goal is never speed but quality installation.
The darker you go, the more heat rejection you get. Darker tints reduce the most glare. If you're looking for privacy than a darker shade is best. Now lighter films are usually installed to keep a home bright while reducing the heat. Take a look at our window films here.
No. That is what separates professionals from amateurs. Our technicians are properly trained to tint windows at the highest level in our industry.
Our daytime Privacy Film allows you to look out and keep others from looking in. If you want 24 hour privacy, Frost is a great option for both day and night privacy.
You can clean your window tint with mild soapy water and a soft lint-free cloth. We recommend using water and Dawn soap in a spray bottle. It's safe on the environment and animals. Do not use abrasive cleaners or products like Windex that have ammonia.
It can reduce the impact of the sun’s UV rays or spectrum by 99%, which is a cause of fading. There are six factors affecting fabric fading:
1. Ultraviolet Light
2. Visible Light
3. Heat and Humidity
4. Chemical Vapors (including ozone)
5. Age of Fabric
6. Dye Fastness
Clear single pane glass (1/8″ to 1/4″) will reject 23-28% of the ultraviolet light from the sun. Insulated glass is slightly better, rejecting 36-41%. Window films installed on glass reject 95-99% of solar ultraviolet light.
Different types of clear glass and window systems will reject 13-29% of the solar heat. With window films, 80% solar heat rejection can be obtained. No window film can eliminate fading. It can, however, offer maximum protection from fading due to solar ultraviolet light and solar heat.
No. There are tints that are poorly made which will fade and turn purple very quickly. Those films do not reject heat and are usually sold very cheaply. Now quality tints are fade resistant and block out the most heat. At All Glass Tint, we only offer top tier window films because they last longer and look better!
The effective life of window film will vary by the type of film, type of glass, window construction, compass orientation of glass, and in which part of the world the building is located. There are documented cases of film lasting 15 years or more.

Yes. Learn how window tint keeps the heat out here.
Ultraviolet (UV) light is responsible for much of the long-term fading and damage to household items; paintings, photographs and your furniture are all vulnerable to UV rays. Our home window film can protect some of your most valuable possessions by reducing the harmful UV damage. We're proud to say that Dynamo Stadium has used our UV film, as well as several HEB’s and retailers!
Although blinds are affordable, film is even more affordable because it's such a minimalist approach. The cost is just one of many plus sides, such as window film is extremely energy efficient (rejects up to 80% of the sun's heat!), and blocks 99% of UV rays.
Yes we do. Let's get your project done! Learn more

Product Information
Generally, window film provides specific personal and property protection from the effects of the sun as well as added safety and security in the events that result in broken glass.
The concept of window film for use in solar control flat glass application dates back to the early 1960s. The original film design objective was to control the heating and cooling imbalances that result from solar loading. Such early films were found to reflect solar radiation back from a window, preventing the warming of inside surfaces normally hit by direct sunlight while still allowing vision through the glass.
As the window film concept was developed and improved upon, a demand developed for colored sun control films that would complement architectural design. Coloration of film was achieved through various means to produce colors such as clear, charcoal, etc.
The energy crisis of the early 1970s prompted an interest in another aspect of window film use: the reduction of heat loss to the outside. It was discovered that polyester film tended to absorb and reradiate long wave infrared heat rather than act as a transparent medium. Through experimentation, new film materials and constructions were developed that enhanced this characteristic. These films greatly improved heat retention within a room’s interior.
The efficiencies of heat control window films are closely related to local weather conditions, building orientation, window size, and other factors such as exterior shading conditions. However, with escalating energy costs, products such as window film are increasingly valuable as an investment for commercial and residential owners and commercial facility managers.
There are many types and constructions of heat control and safety window films. These films are considered in the building industry to be “retrofit” products; that is, products to be applied to existing buildings as opposed to use in new construction. In their simplest forms, window films are composed of a polyester substrate to which a scratch resistant coating is applied on one side; a mounting adhesive layer and a protective release liner is applied to the other side. When the release liner is removed, that side of the film with the adhesive is applied to the interior surface of the glass.

Yup, you can get car tinted right at home. The installation usually takes about 2 -3 hours while you relax with your friends and family. All we need is a garage so our technicians can do a quality install.
We DO NOT service at our location. Our On-Site Tinting department saves you time and money. No longer do you have to wait for hours at a shop to tint your car. At All Glass Tint, "We'll come to you".
Window tint is installed on the inside of windows. We don't install window tint on the outside of windows because the manufacture doesn't warranty it.
Absolutely! Just think of it like wearing a pair of sunglasses. You can see outside but no one can look inside your vehicle.
No! That is what separates professionals from amateurs. Our technicians are properly trained to tint windows at the highest level in our industry.
You can clean your window tint with mild soapy water and a soft lint-free cloth. We recommend using water and a drop of Dawn soap in a spray bottle. It's safe on the environment and animals. Do not use abrasive cleaners or products like Windex that have ammonia.

Roll down your windows and look at the top edge of the glass to see if there is a small gap where the tint ends. Sedans don't come with window tint from the factory. Only vans, SUVs and trucks have smoked glass on the rear windows, but they do not reject heat like window film.
