Commercial window tinting is a typical service amongst business properties, especially in sunny states. The question of doing it alone or hiring a professional comes to mind whenever property owners think of getting a commercial tint. Practically doing it alone is off the cards, assuming you have a large commercial building. That said, how do you approach professionals? How will you know which are the best window tinting services in your area? Here, we’ll look at tips to finding the right commercial tint installer. Dive in as we unravel the secrets! 

Why A Professional In The First Place?

Okay, not everyone would be instantly convinced that professionals are the best bet. In fact, the installation price may easily scare them off, bringing thoughts of DIY installation. Whenever you look for professional commercial window tinting services, remember your benefits are way better than doing it alone. 

 

First off, a professional tint expert bears all the risks involved in applying tint to your commercial space. You will not have to pay for extra material if there’s a lot of wastage or in case an installation error occurs. Professionals bear the full risk, and since they have been doing it for years, they’ll guarantee everything during and post-installation. 

 

Also, if you have watched the Youtube videos and tutorials on how to install commercial tints, you already know how delicate the process is. Any small mistake can ruin your whole tint job or even window in some cases. A professional has a soft touch and finesse that will produce a stellar job. 

 

Commercial window tints are regulated in some states and it is the work of the pro installer to know which levels are legal. Most Americans are only aware of tinting laws associated with vehicles and nothing about commercial window tints. The Consumer Product Safety Commission has regulations in place under the Safety Standard for Architectural Glazing Materials. Of course, you can grab this pamphlet and read the rules, but how sure are you that every process would adhere to these standards? 

 

The best way to avoid crossing paths with state laws is to hire a professional who knows the laws and is aware of any future amendments. So, whenever you choose an expert tint installer, you are sure of high-quality film. 

How To Choose A Professional Commercial Film Installer

While the idea of using a professional seems straightforward, the tricky part comes when you’re actually looking for one. Prices vary, scammers are lurking, and basically, no one seems to be trusted. So, how do you choose the ideal commercial tint professional? Let’s find out… 

Look For Reputation

A reputable commercial tint service is one that has been in business for a long time and has made some great strides in satisfying customers. Go for professionals that have worked for at least five years. It shows the business has been stable enough to stay that long. 

Warranty

The warranty of the film will depend on its type. Generally, all window tint professionals should provide some sort of warranty prior to the installation process. A warranty backs up the craftsmanship of the professional and gives the customer assurance of quality work. A lifetime warranty is the best, especially for labor and material. 

Finesse Installation

While you may not notice this until the professional has started, the tinting process should be as smooth as possible. The pro should not leave any gaps on edge, even when the windows are rolled down. You can check previous work to ensure their projects are excellent. 

Customer Reviews 

The customers majorly determine a five-star company. Any professional window tint installer must have a platform where customers are able to give feedback and possibly rate their service. That way, when you are hunting for commercial window tinting services, you can refer to what others said about the company. Make sure the review platform is a third party and not provided by the company itself. Better Business Bureau (BBB) is a common platform for reviews. 

Shop Around For Estimates

No company is the same, and each will most likely have its own price tag. Do a little bit of research and compare prices from different window installers in your area. Of course, don’t just pick the cheapest you get. Look for a company that provides value for your money so that you can avoid the risks of incurring extra charges. Luckily, asking for estimates is free so you can get from as many companies as you like. Always remember that in business, you get what you pay for. 

Make Sure They Are Commercial Window Tint Specialists 

Your commercial window tinting experts should be a leader in commercial tinting and not just tinting in general. Generalists are fine, but someone who has specialized in a particular niche will be able to provide as much information about commercial tints. Like in medicine, a dentist is an ideal choice for someone with dental issues instead of a surgeon, although all are doctors. 

Referrals 

The best way to get a legit commercial tint service is from referrals. The person referring you to the company has most likely used their services and knows how they deal with clients. Plus, you will be more comfortable asking a friend about the company because you know they will be honest. References are good because you can also determine if the tints are holding up well or if the warranty worked. But if you notice repeat concerns amongst references, this should raise a red flag. 

Choose The Right Professional Commercial Film Installer

Winding up, it is clear professionals are the best bet for window film services. They have the expertise, experience and guarantee that everything will be as planned. Professional installers have all the information, and consultation is accessible.
