Privacy for bathrooms and ground floors, glare and heat control for sunny rooms, and decorative film for doors and partitions. Professionally installed in Ely and the villages around it, with a 10-year warranty. Ely is only a few miles from our Wilburton base, so it is one of the areas we reach most easily.
Ely has a mix of Georgian and Victorian terraces, family estates, shops, cafes, offices and holiday lets, and window film suits all of them. We fit frosted film for bathrooms and ground-floor privacy, solar film for south and west facing rooms and conservatories, and decorative film for glazed doors and partitions.

Much of central Ely is conservation area, and many older buildings are listed. Window film is fitted to the glass and can be removed later, so it is usually a lighter intervention than blinds or replacement glazing. If your building is listed, check with the conservation officer before fitting. Older glass also needs checking for condition, because cracked or very old panes are not suitable for film, and we tell you honestly before quoting.

Which film?
The right film for the problem you have.
Most people start with a problem, not a product. This is how we usually match the two for homes and businesses in Ely. Each film has its own page with photos and details.
Matched to your glass. Film absorbs some heat, which can stress certain glass, so we check your glazing before recommending anything.
Inside or outside. Most film is fitted inside. Exterior-grade films exist for outside fitting, often on double and triple glazing and hard-to-reach glass.
Mainly a summer product. It cuts glare, heat and UV. It is not a substitute for heating or ventilation.
In writing. The film named, the glass checked and the warranty confirmed in your quote. Read more on our solar window film page.
Working in Ely
How a window film job runs in Ely.
Older terraces in Ely often have windows that vary in size from one room to the next, so we measure each pane separately instead of working from a standard. Street-facing ground-floor rooms are the most common request, and frosted or reeded film gives privacy without turning the room dark. For shops and cafes, we can fit film outside opening hours so the business keeps trading. In conservation areas, tell us at the start and we will keep the work to what is reversible. Send a photo of the glass and the room, and you will get a recommendation and a fixed quote within 24 hours.
Homes and businesses
Window film for homes, offices and venues.
For homes, the usual jobs are bathroom and ground-floor privacy, sunny rooms and decorative glass in doors. For businesses, it is privacy for meeting rooms, glare control for screens, and branding for shopfronts. We work with offices, retail, schools, healthcare, hospitality and landlords and letting agents, often out of hours so there is no disruption. For a wider overview, read our window film guide.

Installation
A date is booked, the work is done, and the warranty is confirmed in writing.
Film prices vary so much that we do not give a figure before we understand the job. We suit the film type to your goals, specify the right product and fit it to your budget, then you get a fixed quote within 24 hours of seeing photos.
The fitting
How window film is fitted, and what to expect.
The glass is cleaned and measured. Film is cut to size, applied wet with a slip solution, squeegeed flat and trimmed to the edge. Most jobs take between one hour and half a day, and rooms are usable straight away.
Small moisture pockets can show for a few days while the film cures and usually disappear on their own. We give aftercare guidance, including when to clean the glass, and the 10-year warranty is confirmed in writing before we leave.

Most jobs take between one hour and half a day. A single bathroom window takes under an hour and a full set of office partitions takes about half a day. Rooms are usable straight away.
Most film is fitted to the inside face of the glass. Some exterior-grade films are made for outside fitting, often for double and triple glazing, skylights and hard-to-reach glass. The right side depends on the film, the glass and the access, and we confirm it before quoting.
