What’s Important to Think About?
Your new home is a blank slate, and that means endless possibilities! But, it can also mean restless sleep, nosy neighbors, and blinding glare…just some of the issues you’ll struggle with if you don’t have window blinds in place. And, it can take between 4-6 weeks from the final order to install, depending on the window coverings you choose. So, if you have a move-in date, we can help you place your order in time for moving day!
How Do We Choose?
The newest textiles will coordinate the look of your home–a gorgeous backdrop in your new space. While you may have your favorites, don’t just settle with what you know because it’s familiar! This is where our window covering specialists come in! They’ll offer inspiration, samples and great advice to get you started.
When’s a Good Time to Start?
If you’re selecting paint colors for your home, you can also be browsing fabrics for your window treatments. Most people have an idea of the type of window coverings they like. We also have photos and inspiration to share with you. We can set up a design consultation to get the process started! If you’re in a region of the country where we have a showroom, we welcome you to visit and check out the latest fabrics and features!
Smart Home
Want Automated Window Treatments?
Are you considering integrated motorized blinds, shades or shutters? Did you know they can actually be hardwired when building a new home or remodeling? We can get involved from blueprints or as soon as the framing is up. Once the electrician or low voltage specialist is on the job, we can start laying the groundwork. This way, you won’t have to use batteries for your automatic blinds.
Already Have Wiring?
No problem! One of our automation consultants can come to your home to confirm if your existing wiring can be used or to provide alternative options.
What About Smart Homes?
Planning to use Control 4, Elan, Google Home, Alexa, or a similar home automation system? Don’t worry, we’re compatible! Our experts are specifically trained and certified to integrate with your smart home system.
Selection
How Do We Decide Functional Features?
Just like building a new home or remodeling your existing home, you can choose features based on each space. For example, in the bedrooms, you’ll probably want room darkening shades. The entryway? That’s normally where clients choose an option that allows privacy, while still bringing in natural lighting. We’ll go room by room, helping you decide what type of function works for you.
What’s the Next Step?
Measurements! We can take final measurements as soon as the framing and sheetrock is in place–mudded and taped. Your home may still be in a raw state, but we can get the information we need to place your order.
We Customize the Process…
Your window covering specialist is there to guide you through the process that fits best for you. You can also stagger the ordering, so the high priority rooms get done first, while others are decided later.
