We hired Summit to do a privacy tint of the windows at our business in Olympia. From start to finish, Lucas was extremely easy to work with, had a great automated documentation process, and was able to offer competitive pricing. I would highly recommend Summit Window Tinting for businesses.

Lucas is absolutely great. Fantastic work, great service, and highly recommended. I took my 2023 Civic Type R in for PPF and couldn't be happier with the application.

Lucas at Summit Window Tinting is fantastic. We were looking to have our truck tinted and went in to see what he offered. Upon walking in, I was immediately impressed with the shop. It is very clean and well kept. The waiting area is also thoughtfully setup. Was greeted by Lucas and told him what we were looking for. He presented the different choices of tint films for us to choose from, and thoroughly explained the difference between them. I did not look any further and booked the tint job. Highly, highly recommend Summit Window Tinting and Lucas. He has earned our repeat business.

Easiest experience ever with Lucas. Scheduled appointment for 20% Prime CS today. I arrived before my scheduled time but they were able to get it done earlier. The whole conversation was about 30 seconds before it was off to the garage. Dude was really well put together and the tint job looks amazing, will definitely come back for more business! PS: They have complimentary snacks and drinks so that's an immediate 5 stars
