Window Film Driving Holiday Comfort. Tampa Bay’s Advanced Film Solutions

Winter is here and the Christmas holidays are approaching and while the temperatures in Tampa Bay, Orlando and Sarasota are down slightly; the never ending battle with glare never ends!

Home and business owners face a constant fight with glare!

Your kitchen and dining room windows make that Christmas feast an uncomfortable experience for your family and guests.

Some windows are impossible to cover with shutters or blinds and doing so blocks the view.

This optically transparent film stops nearly 100% of the UV at the window and will filter glare up to 90%; depending on the film YOU select.

In the home pictured above we are stopping 86% of the glare along with 80% of the heat and 99.9% of the UV.

The “look” of your windows is customized for your specific requirements.
