Consumer Comparisons Eastman Window Film Vs. 3M

Today consumers can do research on the Internet before making any decision concerning a home improvement solution.

Thanks to the intense heat, relentless UV and typically clear glass windows in Florida a window film retrofit makes terrific sense and has the fastest ROI of any retrofit solution.

The question isn’t whether window film will demonstrate superior value and remain effective through decades of enjoyment and comfort; but  rather it’s which window film solution is the one to choose and which installation company will  perform the superior installation.

  • We are a family owned business with over 40 years of experience including 33 years with 3M. We do not offer ourselves as sub-contractor for Home Depot or deal with franchises like window genie, etc.
