Get a Cool View With Home Window Tinting Services

Big windows are fantastic for letting in light and the beauty of the outdoors. Unfortunately they also let in unwanted heat, glare, and damaging UV rays. Residential window films let you keep your views while staying comfortable indoors.

The Advantages of Window Films are Easy to See

  • No more sweating, no more squinting – residential window films block the heat and glare
  • High-transparency – window films can be basically invisible, the only difference is your comfort!
  • Your upholstery and artwork will last longer – our tints block out harmful UV rays which cause fabric and paint to fade over time
  • Low-E window films save you money all year – reduce your cooling needs in the summer and your heating in the winter!

Effortless Selection and Installation + Comfort and Privacy = The Smart Choice

Window tinting helps any windows be more comfortable.

We opened shop way back in 1980 and know a thing or two about residential window tinting. Our installers have 75 years of combined experience and are pros at fitting and installing tints.

Stay cool with our window films.

Stay Cool

The sun can make parts of your house feel unusable, between glare, heat, and UV light damaging fine fabrics and art. But it doesn’t have to be that way – window films can make even the sunniest of rooms more comfortable.

Lower Utility Bills

Adding a low-E coating to your windows saves you money. Low-E window films keep your house cool in the summer by preventing heat from traveling inside, and in the winter the same feature prevents the heat from your furnace from escaping outdoors!

Low-E Coatings Save Money Year Round

As lovely as big sunny windows are, it’s undeniable that they aren’t easy on your HVAC and power bills! Tinted window films with low-E coatings block infrared light, preventing it from heating up your house in the summer. In the winter this same coating traps heat inside your house, making it easier for your heater to keep your house warm.

Very pleased

“We added vista window film to our living room and bedroom windows, all face East and the morning sun just bakes those rooms. Now much better with the tint, and we still have the great view of the lake. Very pleased with everyone involved, from our initial meeting with Jeff to the installation team of Erasmo and Drew. Great job!”

– Susan N.

Perfect

“Super experience. Got a quote quickly and install a couple of days later. They were on time and professional to a “T”. Using Sun Shades and Graphics was exactly what I was looking for, and the finished product was perfect for my sunroom. My installer, Drew, was friendly, professional and left the area spotless. I would highly recommend.”

– Lynn W.

Highly recommend

“Erasmo did a fabulous job of installing 7mil exterior film on our golf course facing windows. (hope it helps to prevent window breakage from errant golf shots). He was polite, friendly, knowledgeable and efficient. I have used Sun Shades and Graphics before and am very pleased with this company. I highly recommend them!!”

– Pat R.

Wonderful

“Erasmo was wonderful. Came onsite to provide an estimate but also brought everything with him in case we said yes. They started work right away and were done in an hour. Had a UV tint put on a large window and had our entryway doors frosted. Will definitely use them again if we decide to tint more. They also gave me a quote while onsite for a patio screen.”

– Ryan R.

Feel the difference

“Nice work y’all! Had the Doors and Windows covered at mom’s Townhouse and am bummed that we did not do this sooner! You can even feel the difference now standing in their frames. Erasmo did a great job with the install.”
