Renting a home doesn’t mean you have to live with boring windows or a lack of privacy. If you’re looking for an easy way to personalise your space without breaking the rules of your rental agreement, window film could be exactly what you need.
It’s a quick and affordable way to add some decoration to your space, boost privacy or block out light. And the best part? It’s removable without damaging windows or glass. So when it’s time to move on, your windows can go back to how they were with no fuss.
What is window film?
Window film is a thin layer of vinyl that sticks directly to your glass, usually using static rather than adhesive. There are lots of styles available, from decorative window film, like stained glass window film, and frosted designs to privacy options and blackout film.
You can add it to any smooth glass surface like windows, bathroom screens, kitchen doors or even glass cabinets. It’s a renter’s dream because it means you can customise your space without making any permanent changes that might get you in trouble with your landlord.

What window film should I choose for my rental?
There’s no one-size-fits-all approach, and that’s the beauty of it. It depends on your home, your personal taste and what you’re looking to achieve. At Purlfrost, we’ve got a huge range of options to suit your style and space.
Decorative privacy window films, like frosted window film, are ideal for bathrooms and front-facing windows where you need privacy without losing natural light. If light is the issue, then a blackout window film might be what you’re looking for – it blocks out sunlight completely, so you can keep spaces dark and private. Bathroom window privacy film is a good choice for enhancing privacy as it’s designed specifically for steamy spaces and wet conditions.
If you’re more into having fun with decor, or you have a property with a bit of personality then pattern window film or stained glass window film can add some colour to your space. You can also choose from cut-out designs and mirror window film, depending on the look you’re going for.
