  • Final pricing may vary if site conditions differ from those originally provided (e.g. incorrect measurements, additional panes, access issues).

2. Measurements & Customer-Provided Information

  • Furniture, blinds, curtains, and other obstructions should be removed prior to installation unless otherwise arranged.

  • Additional charges may apply if the installer is required to move items or if access is restricted.

5. Glass & Surface Condition Disclaimer

  • B & L Window Tinting takes every precaution in assessing risks associated with each installation.

  • Due to the variability in glass and painted surfaces, including but not limited to pre-existing damage, imperfections, age, prior stress, or non-factory finishes, there is an inherent risk when applying window film or paint protection film.

  • B & L Window Tinting is not liable for any damage to glass or painted surfaces that may occur during or after installation.

  • By accepting the quote, the client acknowledges and accepts this risk.

6. Film Performance & Expectations

  • Performance figures (e.g. heat rejection, glare reduction) are based on manufacturer specifications and may vary depending on glass type and installation conditions.

  • Visual characteristics such as slight distortion, haze, reflectivity, or minor dust particles are normal.

7. Warranty (General)

  • Manufacturer warranties apply to products supplied, subject to correct care and conditions.

  • Warranty does not cover:

    • Glass breakage or paint damage

    • Pre-existing damage or defects

    • Improper cleaning or maintenance

    • External factors (e.g. impact, building movement, environmental conditions)

8. Cancellations & Rescheduling

  • A minimum of 24–48 hours notice is required to reschedule or cancel a booking.

  • Late cancellations may result in a cancellation fee or forfeiture of deposit.

9. Cleaning & Aftercare (Residential & Commercial)

  • Clients must follow all aftercare instructions provided.

  • Window film should not be cleaned for at least 30 days after installation.

  • Failure to follow care instructions may void warranty.

10. Automotive Window Tinting

  • The client must disclose any aftermarket modifications, existing tint, damage, or electrical issues (e.g. window regulators, demisters, sensors) prior to installation.

  • B & L Window Tinting is not responsible for pre-existing faults that may become apparent during or after installation.

  • Removal of existing film may expose damage to glass, demister lines, or adhesives — this risk is accepted by the client.

  • Minor contamination, distortion, or water pockets may be visible after installation and will typically settle during curing.

  • Vehicles with aftermarket or non-standard glass may carry a higher risk of installation issues.

11. Paint Protection Film (PPF)

  • PPF is designed to protect painted surfaces but will not prevent all damage (e.g. heavy impacts, sharp objects, or extreme conditions).

  • Pre-existing damage such as stone chips, scratches, swirl marks, or resprayed panels may remain visible or become more noticeable after installation.

  • Adhesion on repainted or non-factory surfaces cannot be guaranteed.

  • B & L Window Tinting is not liable for lifting, peeling, or damage on these surfaces.

  • Future removal of PPF carries a risk of paint lift, particularly on non-factory finishes.

  • Edges of film may be visible depending on vehicle design.

12. Curing & Aftercare (Automotive & PPF)

  • Window tint and PPF require a curing period. During this time:

    • Do not wind down windows for 2 days after tint installation

    • Avoid washing the vehicle for 7-14 days after PPF installation

  • Temporary visual imperfections such as haze, moisture, or slight bubbling are normal and will typically resolve.

13. Warranty (Automotive & PPF Specific)

  • Manufacturer warranties apply to films used, subject to proper care.

  • Warranty does not cover:

    • Damage from accidents, impact, or misuse
