Came out within a day of me calling to add a 3M tempered film to some windows. Were super fast, professional, and looks great.

Frank was prompt in responding to our request and quick to complete the job! This company is definitely deserving of their 5 star rating! We installed window films to a few of our business doors and get complimented on them all the time :. Frank was very mindful of our customers as he installed the films during our operating business hours, I barely even noticed he was working. We appreciate the quality customer service Columbia Window Film & Graphics provided and would highly recommend them to both commercial and residential properties!

Report
I was more than pleased with the work Columbia Window Film & Graphics did. With not having much insight personally on window film, Forrest was able to walk me through the process and was there every step of the way! I was very happy with the turnout- they did great work!
