Window Treatments in Colorado Springs

Questions we get asked most

What is the difference between blinds, shades and shutters?

Blinds have individual slats that tilt, giving precise control over the angle of incoming light. Shades are a continuous piece of material that raises and lowers, giving a cleaner look and, in the case of cellular shades, far better insulation. Shutters are solid louvered panels fitted into the window opening itself, making them a permanent fixture rather than a furnishing.

Which window treatment is best for Colorado Springs?

It depends on the window. For west-facing glass taking hard afternoon sun, shutters or solar screens. For cold north-facing rooms, cellular honeycomb shades. For bathrooms, composite shutters or faux wood blinds. For view windows, solar screens or wide-louver shutters. We specify per window rather than per house, which is why the consultation happens in your home.

How much do custom window treatments cost?

The range is wide: aluminum mini blinds are among the least expensive window coverings available, while hardwood shutters on specialty-shaped openings sit at the other end. We quote per window after measuring, with a line-item breakdown so you can see where the money goes and adjust room by room.

How long does the whole process take?

Typically two to four weeks from measurement to installation for blinds and shades, and four to six weeks for custom shutters. Specialty shapes and stained hardwood run longer. Most whole-home installations are completed in a single day.

Do you offer free consultations?

Yes, in your home, across Colorado Springs and all our surrounding service areas at no charge. We bring the full sample range because a colour looks different in your light against your own trim than it does in any showroom.
