Want to have some natural light in your bathroom, but worried about privacy? Contact us about privacy window tinting today.

Windows are a must-have in any home. They provide lots of natural light, means of ventilation and can showcase an especially nice view into the great surroundings of your home. However, some families feel that they just don’t want their daily lives exposed to their neighbors looking through the windows, especially in more intimate areas of the home like the bathroom or dressing area. A lot of the time, windows are already pre-installed in these rooms from the initial construction of the house. Sure, there are blinds and curtains, but these block out the natural light of the windows that so many people desire in their homes. Luckily, there is tinting for privacy. Here’s why window tinting is one of the best solutions to privacy concerns in your home. (more…)

Residential Window Tinting Privacy

Residential window tinting comes in varying levels of opaqueness, allowing you to choose your desired level of light control.

Bedrooms come in all different shapes and sizes, but, at the end of the day, every bedroom needs to provide two things – privacy and a good night’s sleep. Fortunately, there is a simple solution to both: Residential Window Tinting.

Residential Window Tinting and Privacy

“Once you’ve lost your privacy, you realize you’ve lost an extremely valuable thing.”

– Billy Graham

Everyone loves the view, but most people only want the view to look one way – out. Window tinting can keep prying eyes from looking in on your home, while allowing natural light in. Residential window tinting can also block up to 80% of the sun’s heat and block as much as 99% of harmful UV rays, which can save you thousands of dollars in energy costs and sun fading damage.

Protect Client Privacy with Commercial Window Tinting

Commercial Window Tinting Privacy

Commercial window tinting is designed to enhance privacy without sacrificing your view, but that is just the beginning. Window tinting truly does it all.

Depending on your industry, client privacy could be a big deal. Doctors, for example, have an obligation to protect their patient’s privacy – safeguarding their medical records and maintaining privacy while in the office. Other industries may not be under strict legal guidelines, like HIPAA, but that does not mean client privacy is not a top priority. Doctors, lawyers, social workers, certain government contractors, medical facilities, businesses with high-profile clientele, and so many more have a need – an obligation – to protect client privacy. Commercial Window Tinting can help.

There is a fine line between the need for privacy and the desire for natural light – window tinting addressee both. Similar to limousines, commercial window tinting helps darken your building’s windows so onlookers can’t…well, look on. Still, the tinting allows filtered light to fill your office, which is a much nicer alternative to closed blinds or shades. (more…)

Privacy Commercial Window Tinting

Commercial Window Tinting is an easy and affordable way to add privacy to windows and glass doors without sacrificing natural light.

As a doctor, it is your duty – your obligation – to protect the privacy of your patients. In 1996, the federal Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act, better known as HIPAA, outlined the measures doctors had to undertake to protect their patients, including administrative, technical, and physical safeguards. This not only means protecting their medical records, but also maintaining privacywhile your patient is in the office. (more…)

Residential Window Tinting Helps Improve Privacy

Thursday, February 19th, 2015

Residential Window Tinting and PrivacyAs a homeowner, you have enough expenses as it is, but investing in residential window tinting helps improve your home by providing you with the privacy you deserve.

You may think that window tinting may only be for a rapper’s Escalade, but that isn’t true! While many savy homeowners are currently enjoying the many benefits of residential window tinting, the value of privacy is one of the best features of residential window tinting.

Residential Window Tinting Helps Improve Privacy

You can learn about the many benefits of residential window tinting here, but if you want to know more about increasing your privacy, you came to the right place.

Firstly, you are able to see outside your windows, while others can’t see you when they look in. If people knocking on your door are trying to offer free estimates or trying to sell this or that, you now have the upper hand! No longer will you need to push aside your curtains or pull up your blinds to find out who is knocking at your door.

Secondly, residential window tinting allows you to let in natural sunlight without having anyone stare into your home. You will no longer have to worry about that pesky neighbor trying to get a glimpse into your personal life, and you can enjoy your home as you deserve to.

Where to Apply Residential Window Tinting

From windows that face the street to bathrooms and bedrooms, residential window tinting offers several solutions for extra privacy.

Tony Montanna didn’t care how much he spent on security cameras and henchmen, because it helped him sleep better at night. You may not have the same career as Scarface, but you deserve the same sense of privacy and security that residential window tinting can provide.
