The 3 More Important Steps To Choosing The Right Window Film Installer For Your Salt Lake City Home
Do Your Research: There are plenty of window film installers to choose from in Salt Lake City. However, not all of them are “true professionals”. This means an installer who is licensed, bonded and insured. The aforementioned credentials paired with a solid base of experience is a good way to sort through most installers. A quick google search of window film installers in the Salt Lake City area is a good place to find most of this information. If a company does not have a website or isn’t registered with the BBB-that should be a huge red flag. The about page of most companies will be a good indicator of their experience and professionalism.
Thoroughly Vet All Contenders For Your Business: Most of this step can be done online but talking to the company directly is an important part of this step as well. Once you have established a top 5 list of experienced window film installers, go to their social media reviews, Yelp reviews, YouTube videos and BBB reviews. Window Film Companies with good reviews, that invest time and money in marketing and are an authority on window film are usually doing a quality installs as well. However, don’t hesitate to call them and ask them questions like– How long have they been in business? What type of materials or craftsman warranties do they offer? Or if they can provide you with references from former customers?
Find out more about their selection of products: As we said, professional and experienced installers are a huge part of window film success. However, window film products are not all created equal. A lot of window film companies will claim to have “the best” films on the market. This claim is easily researched. To check out if the films they are recommending are up to national standards and worth your investment dollars, just go to National Fenestration Rating Council (NFRC) website and see if their brands are NFRC certified. Any quality film will be listed here and these are the films you should be buying–don’t let any company try to talk you into cut-film to save a few dollars.
