Your windows have different jobs throughout the day. You might need to stop afternoon glare while still keeping your view.
We help you find a shade system that handles both needs.
Tell us where you need to block the sun and where you want more privacy. A front window needs different care than a bedroom.
Send us photos so we can recommend the best shades.
See how samples look in your actual daylight rather than in a photo. We help you test how the fabric manages light so you can be sure of your privacy after the sun sets.
Decide between inside or outside mounts and choose your controls. Whether you prefer cordless or motorized, we measure every inch to ensure your custom shade fits and functions in your home.
There are many ways to manage light. We help you narrow down the options by considering how each shade construction performs on your specific window, ensuring you get the result you want.
Schedule a free consultation| Shade | Light and privacy | Insulation | Moisture and care | Operation |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Roller | One chosen opacity; edge gaps remain | Fabric/system dependent | Choose an approved room-suitable fabric | Rolls up; selected cordless and motorized systems |
| Zebra | Adjustable sheer/solid bands; not a sealed blackout layer | Not a cellular structure | Dust delicate bands gently | Band alignment plus raising |
| Cellular | Light-filtering or blackout fabric | Air-pocket construction; tested rating varies | Avoid crushing or soaking cells | Lift; selected top-down/bottom-up or powered systems |
| Roman | Lining and face fabric determine coverage | Construction dependent | Follow face-fabric and lining instructions | Raises into folds |
| Solar | Daytime glare control; weak night privacy | Not a guaranteed thermal rating | Screen-fabric specific | Roller-style systems |
| Woven | Open weaves often need a liner | Weave/liner dependent | Protect natural materials from damp | Lift; selected powered systems |
| Sheer | Fabric vanes soften and redirect light | Range dependent | Delicate fabric; product-specific care | Vane adjustment plus raising |
| Vertical | Fabric travels sideways for broad openings | Product dependent | Vane/panel material specific | Side stack; selected motorization |
| Dual roller | Separate solar/sheer and privacy layers | Depends on the chosen layers | Care for both fabrics separately | Two rollers with independent controls |

Not all fabrics can be wet-cleaned. Dusting is often the safest path.
Check the instructions for your specific shade before using any cleaner to keep the material in perfect condition.

We will assess what is needed to keep your windows working.
Explore the optionsThe way we mount your shade changes the fit. We handle the measuring to account for cassettes and hardware, ensuring your new shades sit perfectly against your glass or trim.
Explore the optionsA roller shade is one flat piece of fabric. A zebra shade has two layers that move to filter light in different ways. We can show you both so you can choose your preference.
Cellular shades are excellent because their air pockets help reduce heat loss. We guide you to the right cell type so you can stay cozy all winter long in your home.
Look for opaque fabrics that block the view once your indoor lights are on. We show you samples so you can see exactly how they look after dark, giving you peace of mind.
Room-darkening fabrics and linings can help. The mount, overlap and gaps at the edges also affect the result, so we help you compare the full treatment rather than promising a completely dark room.
