I had to get my tint removed due to an upcoming move. The team at Tropical Glass was able to squeeze me in quickly and got the job done incredibly fast. They gave a great time estimate and finished way early.The job looks great. Not a single scratch or smudge. They cleaned everything up like brand new. The commitment to care and detail was wonderful. And from a customer service side, they were responsive, fast, friendly, and with a great price.I definitely recommend them. It's nice to go to a small garage that will provide that attention to service and detail. 10/10 experience.

John and Emily did a great job putting tinting on two windows in my home. They were efficient, friendly, and cleaned up after themselves. I will definite use them for my future tinting needs.

This is the best place for tint in town. We used a different local company for years until we switched our vendor to Tropical Glass. The guys here are great.

I also must say their customer service is amazing the owner is a very nice guy and we answering questions that you might have. He also does not pressure you into buying other PRODUCTS.

Super honest guy ! I wanted front windshield tinted ($180) and the top strip ($40) and he calls me to let me know the windshield was already done. He could have just said he did it, because it's clear, just blocks "blue" light and glare from fluorescent lite,but he didn't and that says a ton about himself. You can't go wrong with choosing TGT.

I spoke with John and he is awesome! He gave me a great deal and was able to talk with me about what the best tint would be for my vehicle. I was able to drop off my vehicle and pick it up without interfering with my work schedule. I will recommend this place to anyone!! Thank you so much! My Camaro looks amazing!!!

This is my first time writing a Google business review. I have to say that I am thoroughly impressed with the quality and appearance of the tint on my car windows. I did a walk-in to the establishment in the morning, and my car was ready for pick-up by the early afternoon. Thank you for the amazing service!

I had some tint removed from my back windshield. They did an amazing job and were very kind. It took way less time than I expected. Also, there was a very sweet dog there that I got to pet and that was definitely one of the highlights of my experience. Five stars to Tropical Glass Tinting for sure!

I brought my brand new car (less than 40 miles) to tropical tint and had the windshield and side windows tinted.I ve used this company in the past for six other tint jobs so I ve provided a good amount of business.I purchased the 80% on the windshield (lifetime warranty). There were smudges and bubbles and I was told to wait several weeks as these issues will resolve on their own.A month later, the issues were not resolved, so I brought in the car and not only were there smudges and slits in the tint, a piece of dirt was trapped inside the tint in driving vision.I was told the tint will be removed and a new sheet installed. I now had to drive the car from Archer, FL a 3rd time to fix the tint.I picked up the car and asked if there were any issues with the tint before I left and he said anything you see will dry up and not to touch the window. This time I gave the tint a month to set. The smudges went away but not the two large slits/defects. Now a 4th visit back to look at this with a lifetime warranty, I was told the tint will never be perfect and that is the best job he can do. The best he offered was for me to come back again, remove the tint, give a refund, and to never bring a car for him to tint again. I took great offense to this and felt he was very unprofessional.I was told my brand new car probably has scratches in the windshield. However the scratches were not there from the first job. They were in other spots. I think the tint sheets have defects since both times has scratches in different places.Now I m stuck with a below average expensive tint job that had me make several trips to his shop, hence the rating. I would give three stars but with the comment that I m not getting my warranty dropped it more.Update and star edit. The owner contacting me the same evening as this incident. He sincerely apologized and gave me a refund with no hard feelings. At least now I know I am welcome to come back for additional services. We have used him 8 times in the past (as a family) and referred several people, so I am glad the owner made things right. Thank YouService: Vehicle window tinting

I got my black 2020 Civic blacked out they did an amazing job and had a super friendly staff. Also went into detail of how to care for your tints.

The staff at Tropical is great. I'm really serious about taking good care of my car and maintaining its longevity, sosometimes I get nervous about leaving my car with a mechanic or auto shop because i'm afraid they don't share the same patience and thoroughness I do arount auto maintenance.That wasn't an issue with Tropical. They took great care of my car. I felt great leaving it with them and their service was clean and thorough. The team was honest about what was and was not possible with the tinting, and they delivered on their promise with communication and clarity.Services: Sun control window tinting, Heat control window films, Vehicle window tinting

I'm very satisfied with my experience at Tropical Glass. I called them a few days out to receive a quote, and was happily surprised at the true cost versus what I imagined it costing. The staff was friendly, knowledgeable and managed to work me into their schedule despite being busy in the shop. When I came to pick up the vehicle, John the owner, greeted me and explained the care instructions for new tint, and explained to me the excellent warranty that they offer. Overall, the tint job looks fantastic, the price was right, and the service was excellent.

John and the guys are the absolute best! I dropped off my car at like 9:15am today, and he called me not even 2 hours later, saying it s ready! And I was blown away by how great the tint looks! Darker percentage of tint, same price as the lightest! Great deal, great work, great job all the way around!

Brought my new car in for window tinting. Got exactly what I expected and was charged a fair price for the service. The quality was great and so far after 2 weeks I've had no problems at all. Highly recommended.

As other reviews say, the guy is so friendly and honest. I bought an used car and don't know whether it has tinted or not. He helped me test the window and said it already had been tinted, there's no need to tint.Overall I appreciate his help without any cost. Highly recommend everyone to this store.

Excellent company, Took my wife's car in to get tinted and they did an amazing job. Originally it was suppose to take two hours, but ended up taking a little bit longer. They wanted to completely redo the rear window from scratch because it was not up to their quality. Very impressed to find a company with such an attention to detail. Final product was flawless, and the owner was very personable. Excellent product and very affordable, I would highly recommend Tropical Glass Tinting.

Best window tinting service in town, had a great experience from beginning to end.The owner has a really sweet dog there that I played with while my car got tinted. The guys that work there are super nice. Got an awesome deal and fast service. At the end I reviewed my car and everything was perfect. Another happy customer :)

Excellent job! Dropped off my brand new Cadillac ATS and the car looks amazing! It's been about two weeks and the tint looks great, no bubbles or streaks! Scheduled an appointment to drop it off and had the car done and ready right on time. Competitive prices with great warranty! Will recommend!

This company is professional in every way and they sure did an amazing job. Getting your car windows tinted here will be well worth it. My windows look perfect and it keeps out the heat and bright Florida sunshine! I should have done this years ago. So don't wait! Give them a call.

I came here for some tint on my Mustang GT and they were able to do the job quickly and with great quality. No need to be scared of them taking your car for a joyride because everyone is respectful not only of you but your car as well. I highly recommend because of the price, people, and quality work.Services: Sun control window tinting, Vehicle window tintingServices: Sun control window tinting, Vehicle window tinting

These guys are excellent! I called to get a window tint and they got me in the next morning. They were fast (only about 2 hours) and very nice and friendly. I asked a lot of questions about the window tint and they worked with my dad as well. I love the job they did. I got the darkest legal tint and it looks great. I would highly recommend them to anyone looking to upgrade their vehicle.
