"I am extremely happy with every part of the experience with the Louver Shop. The salesman was prompt, courteous and very informative. The installer, Joe, was meticulous, very neat and clean with the installation. The plantation shutters are beautiful and I will definitely purchase more for the windows on the back of my house in the near future. The price was r=very reasonable. I am happy to highly recommend The Louver Shop"

"I've never purchased custom blinds before so I didn't quite know what it would cost. My wife and I purchased 15 custom shades (top-down bottom-up) and the total came in around the $4K mark. The sales consultant was very transparent with cost and helped us work through options and explained the outcome. She even gave us general interior design assistance and looked at carpet samples when that contractor arrived! There was an ordering issue for five of our windows. Once identified it didn't take more than a few hours to find a solution. They ended up re-ordering (rush delivery) the correct coverings and even though we technically paid less than we should have the company honored our original quote. It wasn't seamless but their service showed when things went wrong and that's what I'd expect. I'd hire them again."

"Allen was awesome to work with and I look forward to using him in the future for any projects that come up. I called him to come out for a quote and he showed up 30 minutes later! It was so fast that I was not home yet and he patiently waited for me. I couldn't believe that. He assessed the damage from a window leak and found where the old caulk had broken down outside, causing separation from the siding to the window. He could have probably charged me hundreds of dollars to replace everything but wanted to go the simple path first. I highly recommend Six A's Handyman Service!!"

"Kirk was great to work with... very prompt. Came out day we called to measure. Should us all options and had actual product with him so we could see and feel. We had estimates that night. He made a couple of trips out to hang blinds as they came in to give us coverage since house was new and windows were bare. Would highly recommend Kirk!"

"We were deciding between buying new or getting our current furniture reupholstered. We went to Hickory Furniture Mart and sat on furniture but came to the conclussion that what we have is as comfortable as what we were testing. We are so happy that we hired Midas to recover our furniture and would recommend to everyone we know. If your furniture is good quality this is the route to go."

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.
