Why commercial window tint matters in Upper Arlington
Upper Arlington's mature, tree-lined streets are full of classic brick traditionals with large picture windows and original interiors. Residential ceramic film is one of the most-requested upgrades in the neighborhood — heat down, view preserved, no exterior change.
Older UA homes have plenty of west-facing picture windows looking out on tree-lined streets — beautiful, but harsh on hardwood floors and antique furniture from late spring through early fall.
Common problems we solve in Upper Arlington
- Hardwood and rug fading on south- and west-facing first-floor rooms
- Hot upstairs bedrooms with original single-pane glass
- Daytime privacy on first-floor sunrooms and offices
- Optically-clear film that preserves the exterior look from the street
- Heat reduction on additions with floor-to-ceiling glass
