About Glaze Window Tinting

Glaze Window Tinting is owner-operated by Thom Caruth — a tradesman who has been fitting window film since 2003. What started in Sydney is now a trusted Sunshine Coast business. Most of the work is home window tinting, with offices and commercial glass from Caloundra to Noosa alongside it. When you call Glaze, you deal with Thom directly, not a call centre.

Our story

Two decades of window film, now on the Sunshine Coast

Thom started out in the window film trade in Sydney back in 2003. Over the next two decades he tinted everything from beachfront apartments and heritage shopfronts to office towers and warehouses — learning the film, the glass and the little details that separate a tidy job from a bubbling, peeling mess a year later.

When Thom made the move north to the Sunshine Coast, Glaze Window Tinting came with him. Today it’s a genuinely local, owner-run business. Thom does the measure, the quote and most of the installs himself, so the person who prices your job is the same person who fits it — no subcontractors guessing, no handballing you to a stranger.

That hands-on approach is the whole point. You get honest advice on the right film for your windows, a straight price with nothing hidden, and workmanship backed in writing. It’s how Glaze has earned a wall of five-star reviews from Sunshine Coast homeowners and businesses.

The Glaze difference

Why the finish lasts

A tint job is only as good as the prep behind it. A lot of the callbacks we’re asked to fix — bubbles, peeling edges, hazy patches — come down to rushed glass cleaning or the wrong film for the window. So we slow down where it matters: every pane is cleaned back properly, the film is cut and fitted to suit the glass type and the way it faces the sun, and edges are finished so they stay put.

We also match the film to the outcome you actually want. Chasing lower power bills is a different film to knocking back afternoon glare, and privacy is different again. Rather than upselling you the dearest roll on the shelf, Thom will tell you straight what will and won’t work on your glass — sometimes that means talking you into a cheaper option.

And because Glaze is a local, repeat-business trade, we can’t afford a job that doesn’t last. We turn up when we say we will, keep the workspace clean, and stand behind every install in writing. That’s the reason so much of our work comes from referrals and customers calling us back for the next room, the next property or the office.
