"Wanted Sunbrella shade in moss green color, they don't have those. They have a line on inside wood shutters. They didn't have the 2 inch inside shutters I needed for my windows in "moss green" color. They carry the standard 4 inch."

"Did not recieve the estimate after the consultant arrived. When I called back received the estimate very quickly. However the estimate was over 20K for 15 plantation shutter windows which is about double any of the other estimates."

Customers say: Quick response
"Mr. Douglas came out to my home. I explained to him exactly what the problem is with the door. He assessed the door and proceeded to fix the door with my approval. Mr. Douglas is very meticulous with his work which is greatly appreciated. My storm now closes and we are able to secure the door. I will be calling Mr. Douglas again to come out to my grandmothers home for her door very soon. Mr. Douglas saw that the ramp on the front of my home was not completely up at the front door. Mr Douglas fixed that as well. Thank you very much for your hard work today."

"We had a great experience with Bob at Arctic Window Tinting in having our first floor windows tinted. He helped us pick the correct tinting for our needs and was extremely informative. Install went fantastic with great communication and we now notice a big difference in cooling and glare reduction in the house. One minor issue popped up during the install but Bob fixed it and handled it very quickly. Very happy!"

"A good selection of products and options. He listened to us and helped us understand the best products to provide the features we wanted for a complicated combination of windows and doors. We ended up with great blinds, expertly installed, for a reasonable price. Couldn't be more satisfied."
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.
