Terms & Conditions
A Legal Disclaimer
These Terms and Conditions (“Terms”) govern the relationship between Stewarts Window Tinting Plus, LLC (“we,” “us,” or “our”) and the customer (“Client,” “you,” or “your”) for residential, commercial, and window/glass tinting services.
Scope of Services
We agree to provide window film installation services as specified in your written estimate or service agreement. Any modifications to the project scope must be agreed upon in writing.
Client Responsibilities
To ensure the highest quality installation, the Client is responsible for:
-
Access: Providing clear access to all windows. For commercial or residential projects, all items (furniture, window treatments, etc.) within 3 feet of the glass must be removed before we arrive.
-
Cleanliness: Presenting vehicles in a reasonably clean condition. Excessive dirt, dust, or pet hair increases the risk of contamination (bubbles or specks) in the film.
-
Pre-existing Damage: Notifying us of any pre-existing scratches, chips, or glass defects.
Curing and Aftercare
-
Curing Period: Do not roll down tinted vehicle windows for 3–5 days after installation to allow the film to cure properly.
-
Visual Imperfections: It is normal to see water bubbles or "haze" during the drying process, which can take up to 60 days to fully evaporate. Do not touch or press on these bubbles.
-
Cleaning: Only use ammonia-free cleaners and soft microfiber cloths. Abrasive tools will scratch the film and void the warranty.
Legal Compliance
-
Local Laws: You are responsible for ensuring your selected tint level complies with local and state laws (e.g., Visible Light Transmission or VLT limits).
-
Waiver: By requesting a tint level that does not meet legal standards (e.g., for off-road or show use only), you release us from all liability regarding traffic citations or legal infractions.
-
We are HIPAA compliant.
Warranties and Limitations
-
Manufacturer Warranty: Film defects like fading, peeling, or bubbling are covered by the manufacturer's warranty.
-
Exclusions: Warranties do not cover physical damage (scratches from rings, jewelry, or pets), misuse, or acts of God.
-
Glass Breakage: While rare, some films increase thermal stress on glass. We are not responsible for glass breakage unless a specific "Thermal Shock" warranty was purchased.
Limitation of Liability
Our total liability for any claim arising from our services is limited to the amount paid for those services. We are not liable for incidental or consequential damages, including loss of use of your vehicle or property.
Governing Law
These terms are governed by the laws of the State of Indiana.

-
Final Payment: The remaining balance is due immediately upon completion of the installation.
