Window film – it doesn’t stop with installation

Once we’ve installed your window film, we make sure it keeps doing its job.

One of the worries businesses often have about installing specialist materials such as window film is what happens after installation. Will you be able to get any problems sorted out quickly and easily? What happens if something goes wrong, or the window film is damaged? Fortunately, Guardian Glazing Film is committed to supporting its customers at all times, so you can be sure that we’ll be able to help – even after installation.

Window film – installation and after-care

Installing window film correctly is a specialist skill. Whilst you’ll find plenty of online guides telling you how to apply window film to your car or even your home, you should never try to install window film over large areas by yourself unless you have the proper training. That’s why we only send skilled installers out to put your window film in place. If the installation isn’t done correctly in the first place, you can run into trouble with your window film, so it’s important to bear the following things in mind:

  • Drying time – window film can take some time to dry. The amount of time varies depending on the type of window film you have chosen. You will receive instructions about how to look after your window film whilst it is drying. If you have certain types of windows, you may not be able to open them while the film is drying in case you scratch or chip the film, for example. Looking after your windows during this time will help to extend the life of your window film.
     
  • Cleaning – most industrial window films can be cleaned professionally without being damaged. If you or the building managers employ a window cleaner, you should let them know which windows have window film on them and make sure they are aware of the best way to treat them and clean them. We can give you advice on this so you can be sure you’re looking after the window film properly.
     
  • Inspection – you will want to be sure that your window film isn’t damaged. Windows can be damaged by many things, such as birds flying into them, or stones and gravel kicked up by car wheels. If your window film is damaged it may not be able to give you the best level of protection, so it’s worth having it inspected every so often. We can do that for you, so that you can be sure the window film has been inspected by professionals, who can fix damage or apply new film if necessary.
