"We just purchased a new house and needed several things done. I put out an inquiry on here and Claudius was very responsive to my inquiry. He was available the next day to come and give us an estimate. He gave us a very reasonable quote so we decided to proceed with the quote. He was here the next business day to complete the work. He installed exterior shutter on 9 windows, installed 2 ceiling fans and replaced 2 broken light ballasts in our garage. He is extremely hard working, and his workmanship is perfect. He is also a very nice person, and easy to deal with. I’m sure we’ll be needing him at some point for something here or there around the house and I’ve already recommended him to a family member looking to have a patio done in the Spring. I can’t say enough good things about Cladius. He is truly a gem. If you need any project done, no big or large do not hesitate to contact him!"

"Dianne knows her business! She suggested ideas as to what might work best for my particular windows. She spent quite a bit of time answering questions and showing me samples of different products and options. Dianne measured everything twice and was really very thorough. All the qualities of a professional designer. In addition to that, I really enjoyed her company. My new window treatment is just beautiful. I would surely hire her again. You won't be disappointed ."

"The windows were manufactured earlier than we expected and we were promptly contacted about installation. Although we were told the installation was scheduled for two days, the four man crew that arrived was able to finish in a single day! Each window was installed with the same consistency in quality and efficiency. Furthermore, the crew did an excellent job protecting our floors and furnishings in every room. When it comes to evaluating the installation crew, we couldn't be happier. Regarding price, we probably paid more than we should, but that's on us. We advise getting several other quotes first and then get Castle's quote. This will definitely help in your negotiating. The windows have definitely helped to eliminate draftiness in our home and helped to maintain a consistent temperature."

"Overall, the interaction with them was good. She came in and talked about the work. There isn?t any reason why we have not used them. We are working on a project on the house right now, and we haven?t gotten to the point where we would need the services of an interior designer. We would consider using them in the future.

"It was great. They were always on time, they knew what they were doing and overall it was a good service."
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.
