Your air conditioner stops working overtime. Those scorching afternoon rooms become comfortable again. Your furniture stops fading from UV damage.
Professional window film installation means you’re not constantly adjusting the thermostat or closing blinds to block glare. You get natural light without the heat penalty that comes with Florida’s intense sun.
The numbers speak for themselves: homeowners in Kendale Lakes typically see 10-25% reductions in cooling costs after installing quality window film. That’s real money back in your pocket, month after month.
Miami Design Group brings comprehensive window solutions to Kendale Lakes homeowners who want results, not promises. We’re a full-service design company that understands how Florida’s climate affects your daily comfort and energy costs.
While other companies focus on just one thing, we see the bigger picture. Window tinting is part of creating a comfortable, efficient home environment. That’s why we also handle window treatments, home automation, and complete design services.
Kendale Lakes residents deal with year-round heat and intense UV exposure. We’ve built our reputation by solving these problems with quality materials and professional installation that actually works.
We start with an in-home consultation to assess your windows, discuss your goals, and recommend the right film for your specific needs. Not every window faces the same direction or gets the same sun exposure.
Next, we measure and template each window for precision cutting. Quality installation starts with exact measurements and proper preparation of the glass surface.
Installation day means professional application using industry-standard techniques. We clean each window thoroughly, apply the film without bubbles or imperfections, and ensure proper adhesion for long-term performance. Most residential projects are completed in one day.

Your window film installation includes professional-grade ceramic or security films that block up to 99% of harmful UV rays while reducing heat gain by up to 80%. We use materials designed specifically for Florida’s climate conditions.
Kendale Lakes homes face unique challenges with western exposure and afternoon heat buildup. Our film selections address these local conditions with options ranging from virtually clear heat-rejection films to privacy and decorative options.
Every installation includes proper surface preparation, precision application, and post-installation inspection. You get manufacturer warranties plus our commitment to professional workmanship that stands up to South Florida’s weather conditions.
Florida homeowners typically see 10-25% reductions in cooling costs after professional window film installation. In Kendale Lakes, where afternoon heat can push indoor temperatures higher, many clients save even more during peak summer months.
The exact savings depend on your home’s orientation, window size, and current cooling costs. Homes with large west-facing windows or floor-to-ceiling glass often see the biggest impact. One study showed average summer cooling savings of $105, but many of our Kendale Lakes clients report higher savings.
Window film works by blocking up to 80% of solar heat gain before it enters your home. This means your air conditioning system runs less frequently and more efficiently, translating directly to lower monthly electric bills.
Ceramic window films perform best in Florida’s intense heat and UV conditions. Unlike older dyed films, ceramic technology blocks heat without affecting visibility or interfering with cell phone and WiFi signals.
For Kendale Lakes homes, we typically recommend films that block 60-78% of solar heat while maintaining good visibility. You don’t need dark tinting to get excellent heat rejection—modern ceramic films can be virtually clear while still providing significant energy savings.
Security films are also popular in South Florida, offering both energy benefits and protection against break-ins or storm damage. These thicker films hold glass together even if broken, providing an extra layer of home security.
Quality window film maintains natural light while blocking heat and UV rays. Modern ceramic films can provide excellent energy savings while remaining virtually invisible on your windows.
The key is choosing the right film for each application. South-facing and west-facing windows in Kendale Lakes might benefit from slightly more tinted options, while north-facing windows might only need clear UV protection films.
We’ll show you samples and explain the visible light transmission percentages so you can make an informed choice. Most clients are surprised by how much heat reduction they get without sacrificing the bright, open feel of their home.
Most residential window film projects in Kendale Lakes are completed in one day. The exact timeline depends on the number of windows and the complexity of the installation.
Standard installations involve cleaning the glass, cutting the film to size, and applying it with professional tools to eliminate bubbles and ensure proper adhesion. We work efficiently while maintaining the quality standards that ensure your film performs properly for years.
After installation, the film needs 30-60 days to fully cure, depending on weather conditions. During this time, you might notice small water bubbles that will disappear as the adhesive sets completely.
High-quality ceramic window films do not interfere with cell phone, WiFi, or other electronic signals. This is one of the key advantages of modern ceramic technology over older metalized films.
Metalized films, which contain metal particles, can cause signal interference. That’s why we primarily use ceramic films for residential applications in Kendale Lakes. You get excellent heat rejection and UV protection without any communication issues.
If you have specific concerns about signal strength in certain areas of your home, we can recommend films that are specifically designed to be signal-friendly while still providing the energy and UV benefits you need.
Professional window film installations come with manufacturer warranties ranging from 10-15 years, depending on the film type selected. These warranties cover issues like bubbling, peeling, discoloration, and adhesive failure.
The warranty is only valid with professional installation using proper techniques and approved materials. DIY installations or work by uncertified installers typically void manufacturer warranties, leaving you without protection if problems develop.
We also provide workmanship guarantees on our installation quality. If you experience any issues related to our installation process, we’ll return to address them at no additional cost. Quality installation is just as important as quality materials for long-term performance.
