MINNEAPOLIS BEST RESIDENTIAL WINDOW TINTING WITH OVER 12 YEARS OF EXPERIENCE
Residential Window Tinting • Minneapolis & the Twin Cities
Block UV, cut glare, lower your energy bill, and stop your floors and furniture from fading. Professional home window tinting installed across Minneapolis, St. Paul, and the surrounding Minnesota suburbs.
Why Tint Your Home’s Windows?
Minnesota gives you a little of everything — long sunny summers, brutal cold winters, and that low-angle sun that comes blasting through your west-facing windows in the afternoon and lights up your couch like a heat lamp. Standard residential glass doesn’t do much about it. Modern residential window film does.
At Premier Auto Protection Studio, we install premium home window films that block 99% of UV rays, reject up to 80% of the heat coming through your glass, and cut harsh glare so you can actually see your TV again. The result: a more comfortable home, lower cooling bills, and furniture and floors that stop fading prematurely.
We’ve been tinting in the Minneapolis area for over 12 years. We know which films hold up through Minnesota winters, which ones look great on south-facing walls, and which ones are right for that one sun-blasted room you’ve been complaining about for years.
The Premier Advantage for Homeowners
We’re a small, locally owned crew — not a franchise. When you call 612-416-6111, you talk to the people doing the install. We come to your home, walk through every window with you, talk through the film options, and write up a clear quote.
Installation is clean, fast, and respectful of your home — drop cloths down, shoes off, and we work around your schedule. Most homes are finished in a single day. Every film we install carries a manufacturer’s lifetime warranty against bubbling, peeling, cracking, and color change, and we stand behind our installation work for as long as you own the home.
We use only premium films from LLumar, 3M, and other top-tier manufacturers. The cheap stuff turns purple, bubbles, and peels in a few years — we won’t put it on your house, and you wouldn’t want it there.

Films We Install for Homes
Solar Control Film — Our most popular residential option. Cuts heat and glare, blocks UV, available in shades from nearly invisible to lightly tinted. Great for any sun-facing room.
Spectrally Selective / Ceramic Film — Premium clear film that rejects most of the sun’s heat without darkening your windows. Perfect if you love your view and don’t want to change how your home looks from the outside.
Low-E (Insulating) Film — Improves the energy performance of single-pane and older dual-pane windows. Cuts heat loss in winter as well as heat gain in summer. A fraction of the cost of replacing windows.
Privacy & Decorative Film — Frosted, etched, and patterned films for bathroom windows, sidelights, glass shower doors, and any window where you want light without the look-in.
Safety & Security Film — Thick, optically clear film that holds glass together on impact. Smart for ground-floor windows, sliding glass doors, and homes with kids.
Anti-Fade UV Film — Almost invisible film whose only job is to block 99%+ of UV. Recommended for rooms with hardwood floors, leather furniture, or fine art.
