Any suggestions? Preferably in Surrey, but I don't mind travelling for good work.

He's done my windows since 2000. Quality work.

+1 for Larry. Excellent and quality work. Very competitive pricing.
He will actually go to you as long as you have a closed garage (I believe he needs to work in a closed garage to minimize dust).

I recently got my civic done at Yao Bong in richmond and they did a great job. Go to Yao Bong, walk across to aberdeen mall, eat some Chef Hung beef noodle soup, go back to Yao Bong and :cool:

I went to PH solar. $200 for back 7 windows (for ML350) and was done super fast. Even though the rear panel glass was short a sliver and I wasn't satisfied they redid it 3 times on the spot.

was told it would take 2 hours, done in 40 minutes and then redid my rear window 3 times took another 15.

That's exactly why I go to Yao Bong and try to book an appointment around lunch time! Drop off car, have lunch, walk around a few stores and go pick up car.

They do good work too. I first used them 6 years ago. I most recently had 2 cars done last summer.

bump.

i left voice mail last week at the number listed on the website that was posted above:

W&A Window Film Tinting (http://www3.telus.net/pochacho/English.htm)

but my call was not returned. can someone confirm that he is still doing this? :confused:

also, for those who have had work done by him in the past, what brand of film does he use, and can he do a winshield tint banner?

(ie. would be same as below on a rav4)

i found larry. he said he could only do a straight cut strip which is not what i wanted :(

so i just made an appointment to go to n-motion. they say they have a cutting machine that can precut a windshield tint strip that will match the curve of the glass instead of the typical that drops off on the sides for $50... is that good?

Got quoted $175 for rear 5 windows of a 2016 civic sedan. Brooks wood tint. Good price.

If anyone decides to go N-Motion, inspect their work afterwards thoroughly. Not sure if different tints(solar gard, 3m, llumar) are harder to work on than others or if their installer is having a bad week/month, but they didn't do a spectacular job on my car. Many creases and areas with dust and they also burned a trim piece with a heat gun. Already booked to bring the car back. Hopefully they will rectify the issues.

Brookswood has tinted both of my vehicles and applied a clearbra on my 2015 F150, no problems with either product. Good prices too.

I got my tint done a year ago and I wasn't satisfied with their quality of work. One of the edges wasn't cut properly. I returned the same day and told them to replace the tint. The installer couldn't fix it properly, but luckily the owner was there so I just dealt with him. He replaced the tint right away.

I think they need to hire a better installer. I went there like in early 2000 to get my tint done and I had no issues, that's why I thought I'd go back but this time the case is different.

I got mine done 3 years ago at PH Solar in Vancouver. It took them about 30 minutes (they originally quoted me 1 hour) to install on the rear windows of my hatchback and the tint still looks great.
