Five Reasons To Buy Custom Treatments

Window treatments are everywhere - even if you don’t see them, so where do they come from? Most window treatments are provided by dealers like us, who specialize in premium custom window treatments. Others come from DIY online stores or from home improvement stores. Now that you’re looking for new window treatments or deciding if you should get new ones you may be asking yourself “Should I do this myself or get the professionals to do it?"

Our suggestion - leave it to the professionals. Here are five reasons to buy custom.

1. More Design Options

All together our window treatment lines boast over 1,500 material options. Add in the numerous design options such as controls, valances, and design additions there are countless combinations of styles, meaning one is sure to fit your needs. When shopping for window treatments on a DIY website or in a home improvement store you may run into the issue of them not having the color or style you want in stock. It’s a matter of shelf space. We offer custom made window treatments that are made to order - meaning your design option is always an option.

2. Professional Consultations & Measurements

We’ve all experienced the stress of DIY home projects at some point. Sometimes it’s because you’re not exactly sure how to go forward with doing the task or it’s because you’re not sure if this white or that white works best on your white. The beauty of purchasing custom treatments is that we can visit your home, order swatches, and help you decide what’s best with our professional expertise. Additionally, we offer free professional measurements, down to the 16ths of an inch. This means you get professional help picking and measuring, ensure the best fit in your windows and for your life.

3. Made For You

Following up on custom measurements: your windows are made for you. Window treatments made for the DIY websites and the home improvement stores are usually mass-produced and then cut to size when you order, and they don’t usually cut exact measurements in the stores. This means you’re getting a product with fewer details, fewer options, and that may have excessive light gaps. With custom treatments, you can rest easy know that each order is assembled by hand and inspected by numerous real people before making it’s way to your home.

4. Professional Installation

Some DIY websites and home improvement stores offer installation as an additional service - one big-box retailer offering installation starting at $199 and increasing as you add windows to your order. Meanwhile, we offer free installation, which is completed by professionally trained individuals. Our installers are trained for every situation and treatment we offer and it doesn’t cost anything extra!

5. Warranties & Guarantees

Almost all window treatments have Limited Lifetime Warranties of some kind, which is fantastic! The caveat is the “limited,” which means that in order for the warranty to be valid it must be installed correctly in the first place. Why risk installing it yourself and voiding your warranty when you can trust a professional to do that for you? In addition to our manufacturer’s warranties, we offer a 365 Day Service Guarantee which means we will come and adjust the treatments for optimal use or repair any installation-related issues at no charge! Furthermore, we offer our Accidental Damage Forgiveness which lets you replace an “at-fault” damaged window treatment at 50% off for 365 days! Perfect for rentals and houses with children and pets.

Shop Local - Buy Custom

In summary, purchasing custom gives you greater flexibility and less stress. With more options and the numerous professional services offered at no additional charge, it’s a no-brainer to explore the many custom window treatment options available for you.
