"I had my Ford Fusion’s windshield tinted at The Tint House, and they did an excellent job. The staff was friendly and professional, and the tint looks amazing. The process was quick, and the difference in glare and heat reduction is noticeable. I highly recommend them for quality tint and great prices!"

"Faith Auto Glass is amazing! My husband and I had the rear glass of our Toyota Tacoma broken while it was parked in a long-term parking lot near the airport. Although we found another company willing to do the replacement for slightly less, we ultimately decided against it because they were a mobile repair service. It wasn’t worth it for us since we felt more comfortable knowing there’s a physical location that has been in business for several years. This gave us peace of mind, knowing we’d have a reliable place to go if we experienced any issues with the glass in the future."

Window Tinting Laws in California

Front Windshield:Non-reflective tint above AS-1 line
Front Side Windows:Must allow 70% of light to pass through
Back Side Windows:Must allow 35% of light to pass through
Rear Window:Must allow 35% of light to pass through
California's strict car window tinting laws require front side windows to have at least 70% VLT (Visible Light Transmission), keeping them relatively clear. Back side and rear windows can have any darkness level. Windshield tint is limited to the top 4 inches. California prohibits red, amber, and blue tinting, and reflectivity cannot exceed standard window levels. Dual side mirrors are required with tinted back windows. Professional window tinting services ensure compliance while providing heat rejection for California's sunny climate.
