Window Tinting Sydney: Homes, Offices & Commercial Buildings

All quality window tinting films reduce heat once applied. But what percentage of heat is reduced should be the correct question. There is a large variety of window films out there and each one of them has different specifications from others. Generally speaking, reflective films can reject more heat than other films. Take it this way, the energy coming from the exterior gets divided into 3 sections: reflection, absorption and transmission. The higher absorption and reflection are, the lower heat you get transmitted to the interior.

Window films are designed to last for a very long time, especially when they come from a reputable brand. At Prime Tint Solutions, most of our window films come from Solar Gard, a worldwide company and a pioneer in this field. Most residential window film installations provided by Solar Gard in Australia come with a lifetime warranty, and most commercial window tinting come with 10 to 12 years warranty. So yes, you need only to apply it once.

Window tint is definitely worth it in Sydney and in all Australia in general. Sydney goes through extreme weather changes between summer and winter, and window tinting helps keeping the summer heat and the winter cold outside. Some statistic companies have proven records of energy bills reduction by 10 to 20% all year long just by applying the proper window tinting films. Also Sydney is home for a large number of Australian businesses, and window tinting helps reduce glare in the office, which makes the work environment more comfortable resulting in higher productivity.

Most residential window tinting in Sydney costs around $100 to $400 per square metre, depending on the film, how easy the glass is to reach and whether old tint has to be removed first. Commercial and office jobs are priced on the film and the size of the job, and larger jobs usually cost less per square metre. A quote from your window sizes is free.

Not if the film is chosen well. Light films such as Ceramic CX 60 or LX 70 let through 60 to 70% of visible light and still cut heat and block more than 99% of UV, so most rooms look almost the same. Darker films are only needed where you want strong glare control or daytime privacy.

Absolutely! Commercial window tinting is a large aspect of the flat glass tinting business. Although most businesses especially in high buildings do not care about window privacy, a lot of them struggle with the summer heat, and the glare that affects employees using computers. To block the heat and minimise the glare, the best solution is to go for a professional window tinting service.

A few rooms in a house can be done in a few hours, and a whole house with large sliding doors may take a full day. Office and commercial jobs depend on the amount of glass and access, and can be staged or done after hours. We give you a time estimate with your quote.
