I’ve used a few window tinting services around Raleigh, and the biggest thing I’ve learned is that the quality of the film and the installation technique make a huge difference. A good tint should block heat, reduce glare, and still look clean years later without bubbling or turning purple.
If you’re comparing options, one thing I liked about OC Tint Solutions here in Raleigh is that they walk you through the different tint levels and show how each one performs in real sunlight. That made it a lot easier to pick something that balanced privacy with visibility, especially for home windows that get direct afternoon sun.

In general, window tinting can make a big impact, my living room used to heat up like crazy, and after tinting, the temperature dropped noticeably and the glare on my TV basically disappeared. So if you’re in Raleigh, it’s definitely worth looking into a professional installer rather than going with the DIY kits.
