Are your window treatments old, outdated, or just no longer fit the aesthetic you envision for your home? Rather than replacing them with cookie-cutter designs off the shelf, you can enhance the functionality and aesthetics of your home with custom window treatments. Not only can they add value and improve energy efficiency, but they craft a personalized look perfectly designed for your home. As experts in providing custom, locally sourced solutions, we at Blind Guy of the Tri-Cities firmly believe that custom window treatments are the way to go, and here’s why!
Benefits of Custom Window Treatments:
Custom window treatments far surpass off-the-shelf brands in numerous ways, but here are the top three that resonate the most with our customers.
Aesthetic Appeal:
Custom window treatments can transform the look of any room, offering a cohesive and stylish appearance that complements your home’s decor. Rather than an off-the-shelf treatment that doesn’t fit quite perfectly or is off in color, custom window treatments are tailored to meet the exact specifications to enhance your home aesthetic.
Energy Efficiency:
The right window coverings can help insulate a home to maintain temperature control and reduce energy costs. Whether facing the scorching heat of the summer or the freezing chill of winter, having the right window coverings in place not only improves the overall comfort of your home but also assists in your home temperature control, reducing the strain on your HVAC system and saving you significantly in energy costs.
Privacy and Light Control:
By selecting appropriate custom window treatments, homeowners have the capacity to control light levels and enhance their privacy. However, it isn’t just a blanket solution but one that can be customized to each and every room. Whether you can black out treatments in a media room, privacy treatments in a bedroom, or a multi-functional solution on a kitchen window, custom window treatments allow you to personalize to suit the needs of each room.
Types of Custom Window Treatments Offered:
Blinds, shades, and shutters are the most common custom window treatment choices. To give you an idea of each one, let us briefly review these designs:
Blinds:
Blinds are window coverings made of horizontal or vertical slats that can be adjusted to control light and privacy. They come in a wide variety of materials, such as wood, faux wood, and aluminum. Many homeowners who love looking out their windows enjoy blinds as a classic and functional solution due to their ease of use.
Shades:
Shades are soft window treatments made from a piece of fabric that can be raised or lowered to manage light and privacy. Various options are available, from roller shades to Roman shades, each offering different benefits in terms of versatility and design potential. For example, honeycomb and pleated shades offer homeowners sound insulation and energy efficiency while providing a design with complementary color, pattern, and texture.
Shutters:
Shutters are solid window coverings that can be opened or closed. They are typically made of wood or composite materials, allowing them to provide insulation, privacy, and style. Shutters are known for their durability and timeless appeal, with options like plantation shutters being a classic option to add value and style to any home.
The Customization Process:
The way to achieve a successful custom window treatment project is with personalized service. While we can’t speak for other installers, here is how our customization process for custom window treatments works at Blind Guy of the Tri-Cities.
Step 1: In-Home Consultation
After completing your request for a quote, we start our tailored service with an in-home consultation. During this meeting, we analyze your current window types, discuss your ideas, define your budget, and lay out a plan of action for moving forward. Our favorite aspect is hearing the inspired visions our clients have in mind, which we have the joy of bringing to life.
Step 2: In-Person Measurement
After a contract has been confirmed, we return to your home for an in-person measurement of every window where we will place treatments. What many do not realize is that most windows aren’t perfectly square and that non-standard windows require an extra level of measurement precision. By taking in-house measurements, we guarantee that our orders are perfectly suited for your space.
Step 3: Design Selection
Once we have your window measurements, we can narrow down your design selection. From there, we can help you choose between various window styles and then further define your selection by materials, colors, and finishes to create a custom look that reflects their unique style.
Step 4: Installation
The last step is installation. Our crew will work with you to find a time that best fits your schedule to perform the window treatment installation. Due to our streamlined and efficient installation processes, we can be done within a few hours or a few days, depending on the size of the project.
From there, we clean up and clear out so that you can start enjoying your brand-new custom window treatments!
