"John Irato with Better Blinds Plus knows his product, and isn't just out to make a sale. Pointed out that while the "best quality" blinds would be perfect for the main floor, we could actually go with a budget look alike downstairs in the "man cave/ office" and guest room. He covers an amazing amount of territory, so his timeliness wasn't the greatest, but who hasn't gotten stuck in unpredictable traffic? Life happens, and he was on top of letting us know his new arrival time the moment he could! If we had more windows, I'd hire him again."

"Gia reupholstered a chair for us a couple years ago and did a terrific job. Now it was time to replace our window treatments. We called Gia, and she provided some helpful solutions that were functional and looked great. We love our new blinds and would highly recommend Gia and team for window treatments! Thanks Gia!"

"Lawrence was a total professional and super patient with my wife and me as we went through the selection process last summer. He installed window treatments on our entire house. In addition, we had a quality issue 6 months after install (product issue, not install), and he ordered a replacement and installed it with no questions asked. Highly recommend him."

"3 Day Blinds found it necessary to return to the house a second time to remeasure the windows which delayed the time to manufacture and ship the blinds. As a returning customer, the discount 3 Day Blinds applied to the cost of the blinds was very favorable. However, the amount quoted for installation was absurd for only four windows and one patio slider. As a result, we opted to install the blinds ourselves."

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.
