L.A. Tint

Friendly staff, amazing work and even the gentlemen explained how to care for my windows once they cured. They are a group of educated and hard working people who are great at what they do! I’ll definitely be going back. I recommend this shop to anyone.

Great facility, did my 2014 Buick Lacrosse, Virginia Legal tint 5 windows. I selected the premium tinting, wanted a lasting great look. Getting a 2015 Buick Enclave next week, I’m returning to LA Tint for the work ! Thinking about Limo tint on 5 window, must pay with cash ! Not Legal in Virginia.

I wanted to do a full car wrap and wanted to get the project going. I had ideas and concepts and wanted the professional designer to patch it up all together and give that «wow» factor. I visited their location and had a chance to discuss the concept that I had in mind. I got a brief estimate of the project and the price was actually what I thought, so no surprise there. I emailed Josh with the images that I wanted to put on the vehicle and waited for a design.. waited… waited.waited. After 2 weeks or so I decided to call in the check the progress. So I got a call from Josh saying that he emailed me the design. It is very rare for me to miss an email. So I asked if he can send it to me again. I texted my email address just to make sure he wasn’t getting mixed up with different clients/​projects. Well, I waited… waited. waited…and it has been almost 3 – 4 weeks. Okay, I have to get this project get going and I don’t want to push or bother or rush. Since it is a big project, I don’t want to rush and mess anything up. If there is anything up in the air, I am more than happy to clarify it. But at this point OVER A MONTH PAST I feel like they don’t want to pursue with this project. I had to locate another company to work on this project in a very short time frame. I am rushing and stressing and getting chased by a very important deadline. Since it is a time crunching project, I had to pay 40% more to get the project up to speed. It is absolutely reasonable for the other company to ask the extra charge, but I felt like it would have been a better scenario if LA Tint were a bit more responsive and cooperative. Or if it was something that LA Tint didn’t want to do, or can’t do (whatever the reason may be) letting me know and being honest with me might have helped me stress wise and time wise (and financial wise too!). I am upset about the outcome because I was really excited to work with them on this project. Up to this moment I don’t know what held them back from getting it going.

Went here to tint windows, guy sells me their most expensive tints over 450 $ for 2 door car, supposedly it doesn’t interfere with navigation. Since I was already there and didn’t want to stay there googling if this is true or conning me, I went with 450 $ tints for 2 door car. After tints was done I noticed there were many bubbles on all windows few days later, I bring vehicle back to have it taking care of, tint installer says it’s okay can’t notice bubbles from far distance. I called talked to owner he didn’t do anything to resolve or refund and take back the tints. Waste of my time driving there back and forth, waste of gas, waste of wear n tear on vehicle. I checked with other tinters in area recently about tints interfering with nav he said that was twenty years ago.

They did an awesome job with my jeep. It only took 25 minutes. The staff was friendly and professional. The shop is nice and clean.

This is the kind of place where you take you 1999 toyota to get tinted. The serice from some of the guys there is the worst and they look down on you. I had to take my car back on a Saturday because they had scratched the film while installing it and i was not the only one with the same issue, in the 5 minutes i was there two other guys had the same issue. I had to reschedule for the reinstallation. The guy there was a dick about it but he did changed the film one more time. Well, he scratched it again, i do not know why and did not want to replace it again. He came up with a million excuses until i was like fuck it and left.
I do not recomend this place if you love your car or if you own a new car. If you are taking your minivan or your old beater, this is the perfect place, otherwise, stay away from it

I had previously written a review of disappointment in LA Tint, I had asked for the classic tint for my appointment and when they ran out, I had to get the comfort tint and was charged for it. I spoke with the owner, Chris and he assured me that this was a mistake on their end and that they would refund me the difference between the two. I appreciate good customer service, it goes a long way.
The film looks great on both cars that I have gotten done there! I would recommend people to get their vehicle tinted here. Thanks LA Tint!

I inquired with LA Tint via their website, which was very well structured and utilized their «make an appointment» link the night before. I received a positive response to my question the next morning with all my questions answered by a person named Amy. Amy let me know there were openings the same day as well as the next couple days so I had options to choose from. She quoted me for the Formula One Tint… classic, comfort and pinnacle. I wasn’t looking for anything too expensive so my choices were Classic and Comfort ($ 229 and $ 279 not including tax). Now, they have coupons which allow for some discount (see website) but it’s solely for them to apply «legal» tint on your vehicle (for me i have VA plates so 50% front, 35% back). If you wanted to get something darker up front/​back then it has to be cash payment with no discounts. For me I paid $ 279 plus tax… around $ 295. She said it would take 2 hours to apply.
I went in the same day (within an hour of speaking to Amy) and she showed me a couple cars that had some of the variations I was looking for. By the way, the shop is very clean, organized and non-​chaotic looking. I finally determined what I wanted based on this demonstration of this heat machine/​display they had so I chose «Comfort» …between classic and comfort it was only a $ 50 difference. I got 35% all around the car. They took my keys and remarkably after an hour my car was completed! Took half the time they originally told me! I was very happy with the job and they clearly explained to me what to expect the next few days and how to care for the tint.
So far so good and can’t wait to see the final results after the waiting period is done for my 2013 VW CC. Hopefully no bubbles are present (or fingers) but they said they would handle that with their lifetime warranty. They have been in business over 20 years so don’t worry about them going out of business anytime soon.
Thanks a bunch LA Tint. Will definitely recommend you to others!

I recently brought in my Honda for the full treatment. As with my previous vehicles, they did an awesome job. We had a small issue with the film on the passenger side window — this was fixed immediately and with no fuss. I’m glad to see that they stand by their work. And my Honda looks great! Will definitely be back with any future tinting needs.

Scheduled an appointment over the phone. Was told my total for everything was going to be $ 200.35. Came in on my appointment day and said it was going to be over $ 300. Didnt go through with it because it seemed shady.
Shady + ripoff place. Wouldnt recommend.

I agree with Patrick S. regarding customer service at the place. I don’t know who Chris or Tim is but I was satisfied with the job. Tint places, like mechanics, can be a bit shaddy and you’re not sure if you’re gonna get ripped off. Same with this place, but I was satisfied enough with the job that I referred them to a friend.
While the guy I dealt with (he had a beard) wasn’t warm and fuzzy, he did do a good job on the tint. Was the tint job magnificent? No. A month later I can see some teeny teeny tiny bubbles here and there, but nothing to be concerned about. I understand it’s an aftermarket tint, there is lint everywhere in the air, the tint is not applied in a clean room, etc. I kinda expected these imperfections from an aftermarket tint but it still looks good
To notice the imperfections you would have to look closely at my windows and know what to look for.
My one tip to future customers, clean your windows thoroughly. It helps. Use a lint free cloth, razor blades, quality cleaner and clean your windows. Yes I know that is what you are paying them for but by doing so allows them to spend more time doing the tint than prepping the windows. Time is money. Have them concentrate on tinting the car and not cleaning the car. It helps you in the long run. Took about an hour to do my minivan.
Don’t expect super friendly customer service like you get at a chik-​fil-​a. I don’t want them to be super customer friendly I just want them to do a good job tinting my windows properly which I think they did.

I waited while LA Tint put their highest quality ceramic tint on my 2012 Buick LaCrosse. The guys were quick, and did a great job. The quality of the product is awesome and looks expensive. Nice job!

They got my car done in 30 minutes. Not as easy going as the guys I. sterling, but they do just as good of a job. Would go here again, if I need tints done on a weekend

I know it’s a tint shop, and some of this is to be expected, but the place and staff were just unfriendly and abrasive. If I wanted to be treated like a jerk, I’d go back to work where they pay *me*.
