Does window film actually work?
Yes, window film can be very effective. When professionally installed it:
- Creates privacy
- Reduces heat, glare, and UV exposure
- Helps lower energy bills
- Protects interiors from fading
Is there a window film that lets you see out but not in?
Yes – one-way privacy films allow you to see outside during daylight while blocking views in from the street. At night, when lights are on inside, blinds or curtains are still recommended.
What are the cons of window film?
The main drawbacks are that some window films can:
- Slightly reduce natural light
- Cheaper products may peel or bubble over time
Hire a glass film installer and they’ll make sure you get a smooth finish and long-lasting result.
Is it better to put window film on the inside or outside?
Most films are applied inside the glass, where they’re protected from the weather. Exterior films are used for specialist cases, such as skylights or difficult-to-access windows.
How long will window film last?
High-quality window film can last 10–20 years, depending on the type, glass condition, and exposure to sunlight.
The perks of hiring a specialist window film installer include a longer-lasting product and often a manufacturer’s warranty.
How much does window film cost in the UK?
Depending on the film type and window size, window film installation is very reasonable. It’s also considerably cheaper than window tinting.
