Home Tinting in Wollongong

Wollongong has a range of housing styles mirroring its earlier colonial, mining and industrial history and its evolution to a modern city. Residential buildings in Wollongong have evolved from the colonial cottage through post war brick bungalows to the urban villages that display contempory housing styles and building materials. The traditional block has become smaller and many more homes are double story to better utilise the land area. We are changing our urban environment in response to new ways of living and working and a greater awareness of, and respect for, the natural environment.

A major change in our housing priorities over the past 20 years has been in energy efficiency. The energy efficiency of our housing is now more important than it has been at any time in the past and it is not only because we want to reduce our energy use to save  money in response to ever rising power bills but we want to save the planet. The increased importance of energy efficiency is  reflected in the style of housing we construct in Wollongong but also in our choice of building materials, both in new home construction as well as in renovations. Window film is the most cost-effective insulation available to the homeowner and is easy to install in both new buildings and applied to the windows of existing buildings. It has long been recognised that windows contribute about half of the total energy gain and loss in a building, Window tinting should be one of the first measures Wollongong homeowners take to enhance the overall energy efficiency of their home.
