  1. What to Consider When Buying Blinds and Shades?

  2. The most common types of window treatments are blinds and shades. Their elegant appearance, ability to control the amount of light that enters your room, and ease of use make them worthwhile to install in any home. Consider certain factors before purchasing window blinds and shades that are appropriate for your specific needs and preferences and get the best help from blind & shade installers in Norcross.

  3. With so many different types of blinds and shades to choose from, it's not always easy to find the right one for your needs. Continue reading to learn about the important factors to consider when selecting blinds and shades for your home.

  4. Light and Privacy Choose whether you want your room to be bright and airy or "buttoned up" and cozy. Blinds can be tilted to let the sun in or keep it out; when they are closed, light is lost.  Shades can be made with either room-darkening or light-filtering fabric, giving you more control over the brightness. However, unless you choose the sheerest, they must be pulled up to allow light in or down to deter nosy neighbors.

  5. Budget Is it just one window or the entire house that needs to be outfitted? Consider increasing your spending on certain windows while decreasing your spending on others.  Window treatments are priced according to size, so larger treatments will cost more. Custom sizes, as well as specialty fabrics, patterns, and features, increase the cost.

  6. Cleaning and Maintenance Although blinds do not require professional cleaning, they can be dust magnets. Swiffer's 360° Duster (a Seal holder) makes dusting them easier. Shades made of textured fabrics and weaves hide dirt better but cleaning them is more difficult — you can lightly vacuum and spot-clean, but larger messes are best left to the professionals.

  7. Window Measurements Knowing the correct size of your windows simplifies the process of selecting the best window treatment. Measure from the top stitching line to the bottom of the panel. As header fabric is only for decoration, do not include it over the topstitching line of the rod pocket. If you are unsure about what to include or exclude during measurement, seek professional assistance.  You are more likely to buy the wrong size blinds and shades if you do not take proper measurements. On the other hand, custom blinds and shades are a better option if you don't want to take the risk of purchasing ill-fitting window coverings.
