  • What’s the difference between blinds, shades, and shutters?

    Each has unique style, privacy, and light control benefits.

    - Blinds have slats that tilt open and closed (wood, faux, vertical).

    - Shades are made of fabric and roll or fold up (roller, honeycomb, Roman).

    - Shutters are solid panels, usually wood or composite, hinged to the window frame.


  • Which window treatments are best for insulation and energy savings?

    Honeycomb shades are best for insulation thanks to their cellular design. Shutters and layered shades also help block heat and cold. We’ll guide you toward the best fit for your space and energy goals.

  • Can I get cordless or child-safe window treatments?

    Absolutely. We offer a full range of cordless, motorized, and child-safe solutions that meet the latest safety standards — with style to match.

  • Do you offer free consultations?

    Yes — every project starts with a free in-home consultation. We bring samples, measure your windows, and help you choose the best fit for your home and budget.

  • What areas do you serve?

    We serve Colorado Springs, El Paso County, Woodland Park, and nearby areas. Not sure if we come to you? Just give us a call and we’ll let you know.

  • What are the best window treatments for patio doors?

    Sliding glass doors work great with vertical blinds, roller shades, motorized panels, or shutters with split operation. We’ll show you what looks best in your space.

  • Can you match my existing window coverings?

    We’ll do our best! We offer a wide variety of colors, fabrics, textures, and finishes — and we can help you find a near match or recommend an upgrade.

  • Do you install exterior solar shades?

    Yes — exterior shades block heat and glare while keeping views intact. Perfect for patios, sunrooms, or large sunny windows.
