Glaze Window Tinting, where we believe your windows should serve a greater purpose than just letting in light. For over 20 years, we’ve been helping homeowners and businesses across the Sunshine Coast and surrounding areas improve their comfort, privacy, and security with expertly installed window film solutions. Whether you’re trying to cool your home, protect your furnishings, or create a more energy-efficient workspace, we’re here to guide you with experience, honesty, and service that puts your needs first.
When you partner with Glaze, you’re not just getting a standard tint — you’re getting tailored advice, high-performance films from the world’s best brands, and results that add real, lasting value to your space. From residential windows to commercial high-rises, we’ve worked on everything — and we’re proud to bring that expertise to every project, big or small.
Glaze Window Tinting, our mission is simple yet powerful: to enhance everyday environments through premium window film solutions that offer real, long-term benefits. We believe that glass should be more than a passive barrier — it should work actively to improve your space.
Founded by Thom Caruth in 2003, Glaze began in Sydney, where Thom tackled large-scale installations on high-rise towers and heritage-listed buildings. With deep hands-on knowledge and a commitment to quality, he eventually brought Glaze to the Sunshine Coast, choosing to focus on helping local families, trades, and businesses protect what matters most.
Our goal is not just to tint windows — it’s to make your space cooler, safer, more private, and more beautiful. And we do that by listening, recommending only what you need, and standing behind every job with full manufacturer-backed warranties from trusted brands like 3M™, LLumar®, Suntek, Solargard, Ultragard, and more.
We treat your property like it’s our own — because your windows aren’t just glass; they’re where your kids play in the sun, where you welcome your customers, and where your memories happen.

Our safety and security films provide discreet, reinforced protection for homes and commercial spaces alike. These clear or tinted films are engineered to hold glass fragments together in the event of accidental breakage, forced entry, or storm damage, making your windows stronger and safer without the need for structural upgrades. Ideal for businesses, schools, and homes with large or street-level windows, security films add an invisible barrier that reduces risk and enhances peace of mind. We also offer shatter-proof layers and anti-graffiti coatings for vulnerable public-facing glass areas.
Our privacy window tinting solutions are designed for clients who want to maintain natural light while preventing unwanted views into their home or business. These films come in a variety of finishes, from one-way mirror effects to stylish frosted designs that let in soft daylight but block out visibility from the outside. Perfect for bedrooms, bathrooms, offices, or treatment rooms, our privacy films give you the discretion you need without installing blinds, curtains, or shutters. They’re also easy to maintain and provide a clean, modern appearance across any glass surface.
Excessive heat and glare can quickly make your space uncomfortable, especially during the Queensland summer. Our solar control films are designed to reduce incoming solar radiation by up to 80%, significantly lowering the internal temperature and helping to cut down air conditioning costs by up to 30%. These films not only make your space more energy-efficient but also extend the life of furnishings by blocking up to 99% of harmful UV rays. Whether installed in a family home or a commercial office with large windows, these tints provide a more stable, comfortable environment throughout the year.
When privacy is non-negotiable, our obscure and frosted bathroom window films are the perfect solution. These non-invasive films give the appearance of frosted or etched glass but are applied directly to your existing windows — saving time and money compared to glass replacement. They are ideal for ensuites, shower windows, toilets, and any other private areas where both light and privacy are important. Available in various patterns and opacity levels, our bathroom films combine functionality with a sleek, designer finish.
Add a stylish touch to your space with our versatile frosted and decorative films. Popular in offices, clinics, and modern homes, these films provide both visual interest and functional privacy. Whether you need branded frosting for a corporate fit-out or a custom pattern for a feature window, we can help you select and install the right finish. Decorative films are especially useful in glass partitions, sliding doors, and commercial interiors where privacy and aesthetics go hand in hand.
While we don’t currently offer in-house car tinting, we’re happy to refer you to trusted partners who specialise in car tinting on the Sunshine Coast. These professionals offer high-quality automotive films for UV protection, heat control, and glare reduction. If you're looking to tint your vehicle’s windows with the same care and quality we apply to buildings, we’ll point you in the right direction.

Choosing Glaze Window Tinting means investing in more than just a film on your glass — you're investing in comfort, protection, performance, and peace of mind that lasts for years. Our mission is to improve the way your space looks, feels, and functions every single day. With over 20 years of experience and thousands of successful installations across the Sunshine Coast, we know how to solve problems most installers avoid — and we back our work with integrity and manufacturer-backed guarantees. Here’s how we add meaningful value to your home or business:
Queensland’s climate can be unforgiving, with intense sunlight and heat often pushing indoor temperatures to uncomfortable levels — and energy bills through the roof. Our expertly installed home window tinting and commercial window tinting solutions block up to 80% of solar heat, keeping interiors cooler without overworking your air conditioning.
This results in significantly lower energy usage — in many cases, clients have reported up to 30% reductions in cooling costs. Our heat-rejecting films help regulate indoor temperatures, reduce glare on screens, and protect your cooling systems from overuse, all while allowing in soft natural light.
So whether you're trying to keep your family comfortable or create a more productive office environment, window tinting with Glaze is one of the most efficient and cost-effective upgrades you can make.
Harmful UV rays can silently destroy valuable interior elements — hardwood flooring, artwork, furniture, and textiles — causing fading and deterioration over time. With our films filtering out up to 99% of UV radiation, your indoor assets stay protected, vibrant, and intact for longer.
Our window tinting also adds an invisible layer of protection to your glass, helping hold shattered glass in place in the event of a break-in, accident, or storm. Whether it's through shatter-resistant safety film, anti-graffiti coatings, or obscured glass for bathrooms and private spaces, we help secure your property without compromising its aesthetics. You’ll also reduce long-term maintenance costs by preventing sun damage and improving the resilience of your windows.
We even install specialty films that support Queensland building codes and standards for public-facing commercial spaces, including schools, aged care centres, clinics, and more.
One of the most requested features of our installations is privacy without darkness — and we deliver that through modern, minimal, and highly effective film technology. Our privacy window tinting solutions allow you to enjoy full natural light while keeping your private life hidden from street view or neighbouring properties.
In offices and commercial environments, our frosted films help create visual separation between areas without closing off your space. They’re ideal for meeting rooms, waiting areas, and shared workspaces where discretion matters. At home, they work wonders on street-facing windows, bathrooms, or glass doors where blinds or curtains aren’t practical.
Unlike temporary fixes or window dressings, our privacy tints provide a clean, modern finish that blends in seamlessly with your architecture while improving security and comfort.
Window tinting does more than solve a problem — it elevates the look and feel of your entire property. Whether you’re preparing a home for sale, upgrading your storefront, or fitting out a new office space, a professional tint installation adds a sleek, polished look that enhances the overall visual appeal.
Our films are available in a wide range of finishes, from neutral to mirrored, frosted to custom decorative — giving you design flexibility that works with your space. Unlike outdated blinds or bulky curtains, our window films preserve clean lines and allow for uninterrupted views while improving performance.
Plus, all work is carried out by experts and backed by trusted manufacturer warranties from brands like 3M™, LLumar®, Suntek, Solargard, Ultragard, and more. You’re not just investing in looks — you’re investing in quality that raises the standard of your home or business for years to come.
At Glaze Window Tinting, we don’t believe in one-size-fits-all solutions — we believe in delivering tailored advice, premium materials, and expert installation to meet your unique needs. Whether you want to reduce sun glare, increase security, maintain privacy, or save on energy costs, we offer a solution that does it all — with long-term value built in.
And unlike other installers, Thom still handles every quote himself. Why? Because it’s not just glass — it’s where your kids grow up, where your customers form their first impression, and where your lifestyle unfolds every day.
