01FAQ

Booking, prices and policies

In Plantsville / Southington, Connecticut (15 E Summer St, Unit A2, Plantsville, CT 06479). Visits are by appointment only, and exact directions come with your booking confirmation.

Drivers come in from Southington, Plantsville, Bristol, New Britain, Manchester and Hartford and across Hartford County. Every install happens at the studio in Plantsville.

No. Every visit is by appointment so the bay is reserved for your car for the full installation window.

The bay books Monday to Friday, 9:30 AM to 5:30 PM, by appointment, and is closed on weekends. Pick an open date in the online planner or call 860-937-3336.

Build your package in the online planner, pick a bay date and pay a 50% deposit to reserve it. You can also call or text 860-937-3336, or email info@krispyautoworksct.com.

Reschedule from your booking page up to 48 hours before drop-off and your deposit moves to the new appointment. Deposits are non-refundable if you cancel.

Adding aftermarket parts doesn't void your whole warranty. Under federal law a dealer has to show the part caused the problem. We install cleanly and reversibly, and we'll talk through anything specific to your car.

A 50% deposit reserves your date and is applied to your final price. The balance is due when you pick the car up. Deposits are non-refundable if you cancel. Reschedule at least 48 hours ahead and your deposit moves to the new appointment.

Prices are starting points before 6.35% CT sales tax. Custom work, wraps and audio are quoted after we see the car, so the number you get is the number you pay.

Yes, within limits. Front side windows must let in more than 35% of light, and windshield tint is limited to the top strip. We'll recommend a legal shade for your vehicle before we cut film.

Leave them up for three to four days while the film cures. Small haze or water spots clear on their own.

On front side windows, tint must let through at least 32% of light as measured, which is why 35% film is the usual choice. SUVs, pickups and vans with two outside mirrors can go darker behind the driver.

Not on front side windows, or on the rear side windows of a car. It can be legal on the rear side windows of SUVs, pickups and vans, and on the rear window of a vehicle with outside mirrors on both sides.
