Installing solar screens on your home windows has many benefits including lower electric bills, more stable indoor temperature during warmer months, and indoor privacy with clear outdoor visibility (i.e., you can see out your windows but no one else can see in!).

I did my research on solar screens, solar blinds and window tinting for a few weeks in search of the most energy efficient choice for my new home. It was very apparent that solar screens would be the most energy efficient choice. I had a few online quotes from companies in the area but was having a hard time having anyone come out. Then I found Austin Window Screens and sent an inquiry email. Nik responded in a timely fashion and was at my home in Cedar Park the next day. The quote was so affordable I couldn't believe it!! Needless to say I was thrilled!! Screens were installed on my house in 7 days and the results were immediate. No heat coming off the windows at all!! I can't wait to see my electric bill in a month. Nik and his assistant were polite and professional. The craftsmanship of the screens are great. If I am ever to purchase a new home in the Austin area I will be a repeat costumer for sure.

These guys are awesome! I have had them install solar screens on two houses and wouldn't consider using anyone else. They are prompt, professional, and do excellent work. I have also had them do some custom sliding door screens that worked out great! If you're in the Austin area, look no further that Southwest!
