Ziebart

I just purchase a front end protection kit for my new car and was very satisfied with both the application and advise given by John. My car was delivered as promised and given back washed and «looking» like new. I would highly recommend them for any of their services.

I had my bed sprayed in my new truck by a different company. They covered up the tie down holes. When I made the appointment to have them fix the problem, I couldn’t get a hold of them and I never heard a thing from them…
Zeibart Rhino linings to the rescue!
After my explanation, they took care of the problem no questions asked. For free! These are good people who deserve your business. Oh. And their bed liners are much higher quality than Line-​X. So there’s a double whammy!

My review is about the warranty, not the quality. I have had 2 cars tinted by this garage, at the same time. Same type of tint on both cars. And only one car tint failed to stick to my car, after 7 years of use. The other car tint job is still going strong with no problems. The application was great on both cars, 7 years ago. I just assume the tint on the bad car was just defected in materials at production. The tint basically started rippling and just got worse over time 3 months ago.
So what is the problem? Ziebart not wanting to replace that tint, even though I have a lifetime warranty in writing from them. Since I don’t live in Fairfax anymore, I couldn’t take it back to them for replacement. So I had to go somewhere else to get it replaced.
The owner took 3 months to pay for my replacement tint. We were in constant contact with him. Following up on when this can be taken care of. I have no idea why it took this long. We showed him the paperwork, he acknowledge that he would replace the tint at another location.
The manager was very helpful though. Mediating between us, and the owner. I gave the review an extra star for the manager and his prompt professionalism on the issue.

They did a fantastic job, I had undercoating and rustproofing done as well as a diamond gloss finish to my car. They worked hard on it to remove minor scratches that I had and really made her look like new again. On top of the great job the service was fantastic as well, John was nice and kept his word for everything that was done. I highly recommend and will be returning in a years time for the touch ups.

I first brought my 2004 F-​150 into Ziebart when it was only a few days old and they did rust proofing and undercoating. Fast-​forward 11 years… I’ve decided I’ll be keeping this truck for several more years and it’s in great shape so I brought it back in this week for a re-​do. When talking with Mike on the phone, he saw that I brought it to them first in 2004 and he said the price for the service had gone up but since I was a return customer, he would do it again for the same price as I paid in 2004… great deal. I appreciated it very much. They did it again and did an excellent job, did it for the quoted price, and finished it within the quoted timeframe. I am very pleased. The one thing I would like to see is a real drop-​box. I dropped my truck off the night before and was expecting to see a regular drop box (where they provide an envelope where you write information about you, your vehicle, and what you are getting done… and then you put your key in it and drop it in a slot). All they have is a slot so I wrote all of my information on a small sticky-​note from my glove box and stuck it to my key and dropped it in the slot. It did work since my truck got done A-​OK but a real night-​drop set-​up would be better. So, if you are dropping your vehicle the night before, I recommending taking your own envelope with you to put in the slot.

Found them on GOOGLE liked their reviews. My first thought was to use one of the «mobil, come to your house detailers» but my car was so dirty and stained that I figured the «in shop» store had the best chance for the best results.
The results were fantastic. My 2008 Ford Explorer looks brand new inside and out as well as the engine. I had fairly high expectations and they exceeded them by light years. Coffee stains on carpet and seats… gone, package dye on seats, gone. Years of god knows what stains on floors and carpets gone. All three rows of seats shampooed. Not a spec of dust or loose dirt anywhere. Tires and rims sparkled. Exterior paint looks brand new.
Their pricing was competitive and by the results I got they were very inexpensive. I am very rarely this satisfied with a business but Ziebart’s Fairfax deserves all five stars and more.

Called to make an appt to have the windows on my new 2015 Toyota Prius tinted. John was professional on the phone and offered me an appt the next day. Arrived on time and John did an excellent job explaining the different tints and was helpful in my decision making. They were prompt in starting the job on my car and finished sooner than what they estimated. The job was quality. My windows look great. I did spend a little more, at John’s recommendation, and went with the 3M product. I am very happy with the outcome. I met some nice folks in the lobby that have been coming to Ziebart for years for various treatments on their cars, and they swore by them. Very happy customer and would use them again.

My experience with them was for applying sound deadening and paint protection on my Jaguar X Type –they did a great job. Very happy. I then returned to get my tint removed from a new Infinit Q70. They quoted me $ 160 for the job. Tint FX down the road asked for $ 100. John, explained his higher rates saying they were not a fly by night shop like Tint FX and it would take them 2 hours. I went to Tint FX and they did a perfect job in 1 hour.
So, while Ziebart’s work is good their prices are not competitive for some services.

I always feel like I’m being scammed when it comes to anything to do with my cars. Today I picked up my 10 year old truck from Ziebert. It is absolutely beautiful!
I had interior and exterior detailing done and a rhino lining installed.
When I went in for an estimate I was informed the interior was too damage to make it economically feasible to detail (it was a farm truck originally). I then decided to only do the rhino lining. When I brought it in for the rhino lining I was told by the associate they would honor the original detailing price (given to me after picking up a car I had just had expertly detailed). I agreed, not expecting much. I am BLOWN away by the transformation of this truck. They also fixed a seat mechanism that kept the seat from adjusting.
Quality work, superior service, decent price and above and beyond detailing.

Came in for tint on my Ford and got great service at a reasonable price. They were very helpful in helping me pick out the tint options. Thanks guys, I will definitely be back!

I’ve been coming to Ziebart’s for years. My first experience with them was having tint installed on my 2003 Grand Marquis. They showed me all of their grades of tint, the darkness, and explained the laws regarding tint for Virginia. After deciding which way to go, the job was done in about an hour and a half. It was one of the best investments I made in that car. The temperature stayed cooler in the car, I didn’t need sunglasses as often as I did without tint and knowing that I had a nationwide warranty at all Ziebart stores was a plus as well!
My second experience was last week, I went in to have them put tint on my front windows of my 2009 Towncar. I also had some peeling of the cheap previously applied tint on the back windows (previous owner did it) and had them look at it. They pulled the peeling tint off and showed me how purple it had become. The other windows with the remaining tint were starting to turn purple as well, so I asked them to pull them as well and redo. I got the car back about an hour later (after making my way to Chik-​fil-​A for lunch and back) and it looked superb. I’m definitely a customer for life!

I work at Pohanka Chevrolet in Chantilly, selling 5 – 10 trucks per month, and having at least half of those delivered with spray-​in bedliners that I get done at Ziebart.
They have the best price, same day service, and their work is flawless.
I could go to the place around the corner but these guys are worth the 30 minute drive.
Ask for John when you call. That’s my go-​to guy

Do not come here if you actually care how your tint looks. They messed up my car twice and didn’t say anything about it.
The short story —
They scratched my OEM Ford glass while tinting, replaced it with cheap non-​OEM glass, and scratched up my paint which they tried to cover with a weather strip around the window and said absolutely nothing.
The long story —
While my car was in the autobody shop, the shop scratched my tint in the window of the hatch. They took my car to Ziebart to get the glass retinted. Ziebart didn’t do a great job and there were a lot of large bubbles in the tint in the back window. I said it needed to be redone.
Ziebart retinted my back window and in doing so, gouged the glass. The autobody shop informed me that I shouldn’t worry and that new glass would be ordered and then tinted again. Overall, the autobody shop still hadn’t fixed everything, so I took my car to the dealership to get it done right (they had my car over two months and still hadn’t done it right).
The dealership noticed that my glass said «XYG» and not «Carlite» so indeed, not OEM glass. There was also a scratch in the edge of the tint. ***Upon the dealership removing the cheap glass, they removed the weatherstripping around the window to discover that the car was scratched up around the window.

Cant speak for their service because IT NEVER GOT DONE! I called around for prices. They had a special so i decided to go with them. Made an appointment for a friday at 1pm. The gentleman called me at 10 30 am and asked if I was still coming because according to them it was for 10 am. (Not possible, i was at work)
Then he moved it to 3 pm. And at 1 30 pm i get another call saying they werent gonna be able to get it done beacuse of some BS excuse. And that the next closest appointment would be for tuesday (3 days later).
This goes right along with these other reviews. go elsewhere people!

Called and spoke to John who quoted me a price of $ 250.00 to undercoat my car. I made an appointment for the following day. When I arrived, the price was now $ 350.00. He said I must have misunderstood him. So… I did what anyone would do and I called several other Ziebart offices to see what their price was for the same job. Guess what… it was $ 250.00. Bait and switch at it’s finest. Would not recommend this place at all.

They did a good job. But $ 200 (just the interior) for a Ford Explorer, I expected a lot more. They missed a few spots very obvious to the driver after a minute sitting in the drivers seat.

I have never has my windows tinted on any of my cars. A friend recommended this place too. The windows are ok, but there is a bubble in the back window. They said they would fix that if it didn’t dry out correctly. In all the windows look great and with the tinting being completely dry the bubbles have disappeared. Of course, the bubble in the back window is not gone, but I can get that fixed. Just a pain to have to go all the way back there. Oh well. In all the place is not bad and the price was good.

Two passenger side (both front and back) and two rear quarter panel windows have been redone and it looks absolutely perfect. Once again, Patrick, the manager, was really friendly and apologized numerous times for. I will wait about two weeks and finalize my review since it will take about the same amount of time for the tint to completely dry. One thing to note: the tint guy mentioned to bring the car in during the weekdays because he can spend more time on it (3 to 4 hours). During the weekends (I think because of the amount of cars that come in) he said he can only spend about an hour on each car.

I would look for another company if you want your car tinted especially if you drive a car that is not considered somewhat luxurious. I drove 4 hours from VT to get my 2009 Hyundai Elantra 4dr tinted last weekend. I was initially told to wait 3 hours but able to get my car back after about 2. It looked pretty good from the outside but when I got in my car, I have noticed that all 4 door panels put in crooked and had glue all over the door panels & window switches. I went back and the guy tried to fix them but still look crooked. Maybe I will have to take it to a Hyundai dealer and have one of their technicians to fix them. Today I noticed that the tint film only covers 90% of the real panel window and found couple quarter-​sized bubbles on other windows (hopefully they will disappear). There were few Mercedez and Lexus on that day and I’m pretty sure they got a decent job but not mine. For $ 200+tax I would have expected something better than this. However, Patrick, the manager, was really friendly and nice. I will be taking my car back in two weeks and see what happens.

The employees are rough. Wax your car yourself and save money.
The service they provide is fantastic. I’ve had them apply window film (tint), rust protection, and Diamond Gloss paint protectant.
They cost a pretty penny. There seems to be a high turn-​over rate on employees there and most of the time I run into rough/​course employees there.
There was a schedule conflict and I was threated by voicemail to be charged a fee for cancelling my scheduled appointment.
I give them an A-​OK because of the ease of use I found their service. Automotive people tend to have an earthy/​grease feel for the customer service side of business.
Oh well, they do a job A-​OK — Then I leave. And after I have experienced what they have to offer, I will never return.

Few years ago had my car detailed here. I brought in a 10 year old car, which looked every bit the 3650 days I rode her. Roof succumbed to oxidation, loosing its luster — no shine. Inside had beautiful golden dog hair, everywhere, on a black interior. yes looked like shaggy carpet.
WOW WHAT A DIFFERENCE, car looked brand spanking new. Would highly recommend.
