Lovely window stickers

Everything was very smooth and delivered on time. The window stickers are perfect and the instructions for fitting them very clear. They look lovely and I would completely recommend them.

Quick delivery

Quick delivery. Clear instructions and if you follow these fairly easy installation. I got these reflective ones as I live on the ground floor next to the pavement. They work best when its bright outside. Definitely an improvement and probably worth the money and effort

Easy website to use

Easy website to use. I knew what I wanted as I have used Purlfrost before. I ordered precut as it looks a lot nicer and professional when up and the instructions re measurments when ordering are very clear and simple. The film comes well packaged. I would use again

Works every time

I ordered a roll of window film cut to size in a stained glass pattern from Purlfrost maybe three years ago. They supply the squeegee thing you need and clear instructions with every order and we installed it without any problems and it’s still in place today looking great. Recently I wanted some plain frosted film but couldn’t remember where I’d got it from before and had to order from another company. The
product was inferior and had many air bubbles which we couldn’t get rid off so abandoned it. A complete waste of money. A little while later going through emails I found my old order from Purlfrost. This time I ordered the frosted privacy film and two patterned designs as well. These are so easy to use, just follow the instructions, use the tool provided and it goes on and stays on. I will never buy from anywhere else!

Arrived promptly and is exactly what I wanted.
Thick enough not to see through but still let plenty of light in.

Initially wrote a poor review

Initially wrote a poor review, without giving the company a chance to put right. Purlfrost contacted me and immediately offered to put the issue right at no cost to me. They didn’t even ask me to change my first review. I can highly recommend this company and will definitely use again.

Larger sizes are tough to apply

Due to the size of the film, I was left with a number of creases and wasn't happy with the final result. Even with two people, it wasn't easy to apply without the film curling up.

Dear Matthew
Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. We’re sorry to hear that you found the larger size difficult to apply and weren’t fully satisfied with the final result. If you could provide us with an order number or your full name by email then we can advise more specifically on the product you have purchased.

When installing larger panels, using a very generous amount of soapy water on both the glass and the adhesive side of the film is key. This allows the film to glide into position more easily and significantly reduces the risk of creasing or curling during application. If too little solution is used, the film can grip too quickly, which can make handling more challenging — especially with wider pieces.

We’d be very happy to offer some additional guidance and tips to help achieve a smoother finish.
Please feel free to contact us at helpdesk@purlfrost.com
and our team will gladly assist.

Kind regards,
Purlfrost

Quite disappointing.

The product is thinner and more brittle than previous films that I have purchased. The film split easily when trying to adjust it. I managed to get a reasonable result but nowhere near as good as previous times.

Dear Andy,
We’re very sorry to hear that you were disappointed with your recent purchase. We’d like to reassure you that our films and manufacturing process have remained consistent for many years, so your experience is certainly concerning to us.
We would really appreciate the opportunity to investigate what may have gone wrong. Could you please email us at helpdesk@purlfrost.com
with your order number? We haven’t been able to locate any previous orders under your name, so it would also be helpful if you could let us know which products you previously purchased.

We’re keen to understand the issue and work with you to find a suitable resolution.

Kind regards,

Japanese floral design in teal is the perfect window film for a cloakroom!

Efficient service; delivered when expected.
Managed to follow instructions and fitted it on our cloakroom window in response to my husband's concern about 'privacy' when using the room, despite it having semi obscure glass already! Took about 30 mins from cleaning window to putting film on and it looks great! No need to sort a curtain or voile and fit all that! Would highly recommend!

Great made to measure glass film

Great made to measure glass film. Not cheap, but you definately get what you pay for. Colours are bright and look excellent on the window. Instructions are clear and include the little squeegee for application. Delivery took a wee bit longer than I expected but I guess that's because it is being made to order so that's fine. Very happy and would use the company again. The chooce of designs is huge!

Sadly this really didn’t work. Possibly because we wanted an indoor transfer and received an outdoor one! What a mess, it had to be thrown away.

Dear Jane, very sorry to hear this.
We are always available to help if there's an issue with your order, and always try our best to resolve if you email us before posting a review.

I can see from your order that your window measurement was 28cm x 28cm and within this there is a border around the edge and the house number (design HNC 6B)

We'll get one of the team to contact you directly and send a replacement if we've sent you the wrong thing! It should certainly be applied from the inside with the number in reverse.
Best regards, Purlfrost
