Window Blinds, Shades, & Shutters FAQs
​
  • Are window blinds easy to install?
    Depending on the type of blinds you want to install. A screwdriver should come in handy, or for faster installation, a power tool such as cordless screwdriver would do the job easily. But as a rule of thumb always make sure to measure first.
 
  • How much does window blinds installation cost?
    It all depends on the number of windows you have in your house. Many window blinds installers offer free estimates so they can measure the size of your windows for a customized fit plus labor cost of installation.
 
  • Why use window blinds?
    ​Blinds can add to your décor as an under treatment for privacy or stand on their own as the window dressing with a beautiful wood valance or cornice as a finishing touch. Also, it helps to reduce the heat from the sunlight while keeping your house cool inside.
