"Our neighbors recommended Bill. We wanted motorized roller shades and needed 16 window treatments. 10 of the windows are in the same room, so we wanted to be able to put the shades up and down all at once if needed. Bill was fantastic. He found beautiful shades from Comfortex, a subsidiary of Hunter Douglas. These shades are commercial quality and were much less than other quotes we received, for the same shades and company. We can see out into our yard, but no one can look in. These shades are rechargeable and are controlled with our phones or a clicker. The shades go up at a set time and down at a set time or whenever we use the controller. Our rooms look gorgeous. Bill is reliable and trustworthy. Since we were both working, we were comfortable giving Bill our house code to come in and install the shades. The installation went perfect. We couldn't be happier. We have three more windows that are being replaced soon and we will be calling Bill again. Thank you Bill!"

"Tom is more than a carpenter, more than just a handy man, a plumber, an electrician. He is a skilled craftsman, talented, reliable and generous with good advice. Over the past two years Tom has demonstrated his talents by helping improve my beautiful but somewhat outdated home. He has done everything from designing and building a new dressing room closet, to repairing and replacing light fixtures, and he is currently laying a new bathroom floor. He has even put my gas grill together! Lucky I was the day he responded to my Home Advisor call."

"Claudia measured the 20 windows when she first visited. All the prep work was done before arrival. The shutters were installed in one day. Every shutter fit. The Covians were efficient; the work was professionally done. They are an excellent sub- contractor."

FAQs for window covering service projects in Amherst, NY

Custom window treatments cost $800 per window, ranging from $150 to $3,000 for materials alone, before labor is factored in. Blinds are the most economical option, while custom curtains and drapes are more expensive due to intricate designs and premium materials. The final cost depends on your style preferences, material quality, and the complexity of the installation.

Mini blinds are the most cost-effective window treatment available, providing efficient light control and exceptional value. They offer the lowest cost option at $600 per set and serve as a dependable solution for budget-conscious homeowners. Roller shades and valances offer cost savings by avoiding premium materials, ensuring that quality design and functional installations remain uncompromised.

Prices increase with larger windows, premium materials, and additional labor for complex installations. High-grade fabrics, hardwoods, intricate designs, and motorized hardware all contribute to the total cost. For instance, drapes run more than Roman shades because they use more fabric and detailing. Still, a well-chosen treatment pays you back in style, privacy, and insulation.

Layering treatments—say, a sheer shade paired with floor-length drapes—adds depth and polish to any room. Sticking to one color family keeps the look cohesive while mixing textures boosts dimension, sound absorption, and energy efficiency. You also gain flexible light control, shifting from full sun to total blackout without swapping hardware.

Energy-efficient window treatments lower energy costs by minimizing heat transfer through advanced fabric technology and design. They block excessive sunlight while maintaining a consistent indoor temperature, thereby reducing the demand on heating and cooling systems. They retain heat in winter and keep your home cool in summer, maintaining year-round comfort and producing measurable savings on electric bills through superior energy management.

Bay, picture, and dormer windows rarely pair well with shutters because their unique shapes demand more flexible coverings. For a cleaner fit and better performance, choose treatments tailored to those dimensions—think custom shades, drapes, or valances that accentuate the architecture instead of competing with it.
