The trusted Malvern guide
You shouldn't have to choose between heat, heritage, and your view.
UV Window Coatings is a 3M Platinum Select Partner serving Melbourne since 1997. Our crews are vetted, manufacturer-trained, and stand behind every install with a written 3M warranty.
Malvern's Gascoigne Estate is one of Melbourne's premier Edwardian precincts. These homes are protected by Stonnington's strictest heritage overlays, which means original windows stay. Interior 3M film is the only way to bring them up to a modern thermal and UV standard.

The Malvern solution
Three problems window film solves on day one.
UV & heat in Malvern
Original Edwardian glass offers essentially no UV or solar control. Heat gain in front rooms, fading on rugs and timber, Prestige film resolves both at the glass, without any external change.
Why 3M Prestige film
Optically clear, interior-applied, fully heritage-compliant. The original sashes, leadlights and frames stay exactly as they are.
Security film for Malvern
Heritage homes with original glazing are particularly vulnerable to break-ins. Security film is a non-invasive alternative to replacement glazing, and crucially, it preserves the original glass that gives these homes their value.

Why 3M film over the alternatives
How Malvern owners actually compare their options.

|---|---|---|---|
| Heat rejection | Up to 97% IR blocked | Minimal, heat already inside | Improved (IGU) |
| Keep the view | Yes, optically clear | No, blocks the view | Yes |
| OC / heritage approval | Typically not required (interior) | Often required externally | Almost always required |
| UV protection | 99.9% UV blocked | Partial when closed | Varies |
| Install time | Typically 1 day | 1–3 weeks lead | 4–12 weeks + scaffold |

“The team were great from start to finish, from the initial quote over the phone to the final install and completion.”

“I recently had UV window coating and security tint installed, and I am extremely happy with the result. The entire process was professional and hassle-free, from the initial consultation through to the installation. The quality of the tint is excellent, providing added security, UV protection, and improved privacy while still maintaining a clean and professional appearance. The installation was completed to a very high standard, with great attention to detail and no visible imperfections. The team was punctual, knowledgeable, friendly, and took the time to explain the product and installation process clearly. I was particularly impressed with their professionalism and workmanship. I highly recommend UV Windows Coating for anyone looking for quality security window tinting and professional service. Excellent product, excellent workmanship, and excellent customer service!”

“UV coatings were great with helping me choose the best suited tint to match a window to other existing windows. Also gave me some good advice on another skylight window issue I was having and helped me find a solution.”

“We recently had UV Window Coatings install window tinting to our existing windows, and I couldn’t be happier with the result. Khoa and the team were professional from the initial quote right through to installation. The process was smooth, the workmanship was excellent, and the difference has been incredible. Rooms that used to become unbearably hot from the afternoon sun are now much more comfortable, and we've noticed a significant reduction in heat coming through the windows. The tint looks fantastic, maintains the views, and has made a huge difference to the comfort of our home. If you're looking for a quality window tinting solution, I highly recommend Khoa and the team at UV Window Coatings. Amazing work and outstanding service!”

“It felt like I had a village take care of my tinting needs. Deb in sales really knows her stuff, Khoa as well. The installers Brendan and Steve did a great job too. The admin staff were professional. I really like how they went out of their way to leave me samples so I can have a think about my options. The non reflective options they have are great and we ended up doing our whole house. The house looks great and modern, ready for summer.”

“We are delighted to have been referred to UV Window Coatings. From our first contact to installation the experience has been excellent. The film significantly reduced the heat coming into our upstairs rooms facing west, north and east. The advice we received and the installation was most professional. I highly recommend this company.”

“Rachel, Deb, Khoa and Steve were immensely helpful and accommodating from the first consultation contact to installation. Loved the fact I was educated and recommended different options based on my requirements and suitability before locking. I eventually went with both privacy and security film combined option which I’ve been satisfied with so far. Will come to this team again for my future projects.”

“I highly recommend UV Window Coatings. Khoa, Deb and the installer were professional, responsive, and a pleasure to work with throughout the entire process, from initial enquiry to installation. They provided a competitive quotation, and the installation was carried out efficiently and without issue. We selected the 3M window tint, which has substantially reduced glare and heat within our apartment. This is an outstanding company that consistently delivers on its commitments.”
