UV & Fade Protection for Austin Homes
Sunlight fades floors, artwork, rugs, and furniture. Our residential films block up to 99% of UV and reduce infrared (IR) heat and visible glare—the three major contributors to fading—so your interiors stay vibrant without darkening your rooms.

What causes fading in homes?
Fading is driven by UV (major factor), visible light, and infrared heat. Films that address all three offer the best protection.
Do window films really block UV?
Yes—quality residential films block up to 99% of UV, a primary cause of fading and sun damage.
Will film change the color of my rooms?
We select neutral, spectrally selective films that keep colors true and spaces bright.
Will my floors and furniture stop fading completely?
No solution is 100%, but blocking UV + reducing IR and glare dramatically slows fading, extending the life of finishes.
Does UV film make my windows dark?
Not the films we specify. You’ll maintain daylight while filtering harmful UV and heat.
Is this better than using curtains or blinds?
Curtains work when closed. Film protects all day, every day—without losing views or light.
Will film help with hot spots too?
Yes. Spectrally selective films reduce IR heat so rooms stay more even in temperature.
Can I protect artwork and hardwood floors specifically?
Absolutely. We target sun-exposed panes near valuable pieces and high-UV zones to minimize damage.
Is UV protection safe for double-pane windows?
Yes—when matched to glass type and exposure. We specify safe, manufacturer-backed options for IGU units.
How long does the protection last?
Top-tier films carry lifetime residential warranties and maintain UV performance for the life of the product.
Will film affect Low-E windows?
We choose films compatible with Low-E coatings to enhance protection without harming performance.
Can I remove or change the film later?
Yes. Films are removable by professionals, allowing updates or aesthetic changes years later.
Is there a clear option without reflective look?
Yes—neutral ceramic films provide protection without a mirrored appearance.
Will this help protect rugs near big windows?
Yes. UV and heat reduction significantly slows fading of rugs, textiles, and wood near sunlit glass.
Does film protect against skin damage indoors?
Blocking 99% of UV helps reduce UV exposure indoors—useful for sun-facing spots where you sit or work.
Is maintenance difficult?
Maintenance is simple: soft cloth, mild cleaners. We’ll provide easy care instructions after install.
How soon will I notice the difference?
UV reduction is immediate. You’ll also notice less glare and cooler surfaces near windows.
Will it affect resale value?
Protection, comfort, and efficiency are attractive to buyers; films are also removable if a future owner prefers a change.
How do I get an exact quote?
We assess exposure, glass type, and goals, then provide a precise film recommendation and price.
