Blackout curtains and shades Louisville Ky.

Posted on September 25, 2013 by charlie marshall

Blackout drapes can be hung in different styles such as using velcro or just by sewing the lining to the drape we already have. Most of the time purchasing blackout curtain in general is hard because they form the main point to the design of your home and there are so many possibilities in styles. We think it’s valuable to be sure of the thickness of blackout curtains to make possible effective blocking of light. Attaining blackout curtain linings is a solution that gives more efficient solution to using blinds as shades do not really block outside light sources.

Why To Choose Blackout Shades

Blackout shades are a popular choice for multi-purpose rooms like dens and offices. They are useful for blocking the light form entering into the room. While you take a nap in the afternoon or as the sun makes it more difficult to see a computer or television screen you can simply darken the room. Blackout shades are very valuable in rooms with home theaters, allowing you to have a real theater experience anytime of day. When you want to watch a movie roll down your shades to darken the room for a better effect – when you are done open them up to enjoy sunlight again. Blackout shades range from dark colors to softer natural colors. They are perfect for any type of a room that you want maximum versatility.

Many people choose woven wood shades to provide a natural, artistic and comfortable look to a room.. Bamboo shades elegance to your rooms paired with modern or Asian inspired furnishings. These shades can be used in home theater rooms as well as in your bedrooms. Durable, high-quality natural material shades are easy to clean and maintain, making them a very popular choice in many homes.

Blackout Curtains For Your Home

Filed under: blackout curtains,Blackout Shades,Curtain,drapes,window treatments,windows — Tags: apartment, Curtain, decorate, drape rings — admin @ 8:00 am

It is easy to buy a drape that will decorate your window, but to locate a window treatment which stops sunlight is quite different. Cutting the light at the window brings a lot of advantages , but we will talk about that later.

When we are buying drapes for our windows in Louisville ky, quite often they are thin to a certain degree. Those curtain are also giving a light to enter, as well as allowing people to look in our room. If we desire to completely stop incoming light with curtains and form ultimate privacy in your apartment, the best way to do it is by acquiring blackout curtains. Usually they can stand on our window frames by themselves, but they can be very easily attached to the already present drape by hanging them on the existing drape rings. Create and make plenty of other solutions by yourself, there are absolutely no limitations to what you can do with good tools and some ideas.

First Ask, “What’s YOUR Favorite Color?” Then…

Ask your child what his or her favorite color is, and you’ll get a quick answer. Then ask what the SECOND favorite color is, and you’ve opened a gold-mine that will help you create the perfect look for your child’s room by using BOTH of those colors. This gives you the opportunity to add details in either color, in trims, paint, accessories, custom pillows and bedspreads, floor coverings, lighting and furnishings. This will also keep you from getting bogged down in matching just one color, and lets the young ones have their say in how their personal spaces look and feel!

shades and blinds repaired in Louisville Ky.

Posted on September 4, 2013 by charlie marshall

We repair broken shades and blinds Leave a comment

If cords are worn or broken, the shade can be restrung .
The shades are lifted open all the way to the top and then locked into place. The hardware, repeatedly, clamps
onto the string at the same spot, which causes the string to wear through and then break.
The main reason the string breaks in mini blinds is because the slats are not completely open when raising
and lowering the blind. Blinds with slats should always be in the open position before pulling on the string.
We are familiar with all the major brands, Hunter Douglas, Lafayette, Comfortex, and Grabor.

Bamboo Shades Are Good For More Than Decorating

Filed under: bamboo shades,decor,window treatments — Tags: decor, design — admin @ 8:00 am

In addition to the aesthetic considerations such as decor and design, privacy and light control must be an important part of the decision process whenever choosing Bamboo shades, regardless of which room of the home they are to be installed. Natural Bamboo shades can be viewed as a “green product” but their capabilities extend well beyond the environmental concern. For now, we will only focus on the privacy aspect of this wonderful product. As the trend to live in clusters gains popularity, privacy is an extremely important part of the choice we make for window treatments. In today’s society, security is also an ever present necessity regardless of the size of our family. Bamboo shades are particularly efficient in shielding you and your loved ones from the outside world and the dangers it may bring upon you if your privacy is not maintained at all times. Proper installation of the Bamboo shades is critical to providing this protection.

If you have children you need to consider the safety of the window blinds you use in your home. Many child hazards and dangers involved with window treatments can be avoided if you choose the right preventative safety features. Child safety blinds will help to increase the safety of your windows through use of several cordless functions. Cordless blinds are the recommended way to improve safety as they have no cords, which are the main cause of accidents and injuries.

When shopping for child safe blinds, consider which operating mechanism is right for the window.For very tall or hard to reach windows, a motorized blind or the continuous cord loop option might be right for you.

Client Testimonials

Mary Jane C. "Mr. Marshall was a delight to work with from the initial contact. He responded quickly to a phone message, even before I anticipated, and was available for a consultation on short notice. That was important because the windows in my house had just been replaced and we wanted new "honeycomb" fabric blinds installed as quickly as possible. He was also available for an early evening appointment, which my husband and I greatly appreciated. Although we wanted the blinds quickly, we also wanted good quality blinds, and he had excellent options from which to choose, along with a good range of color selections. We also had the good fortune of being able to take advantage of a special offer that saved us nearly a $1,000.00 on the blinds we preferred. As promised, the blinds arrived in two weeks, even a couple of days earlier, and Mr. Marshall arranged an appointment to install them at our earliest convenience. Again, as promised, he had the blinds (21) installed in about two hours. We will definitely choose to go to him if we decide to install window treatments, and I gladly recommend his services."

S.Trask Vender promptly called and made appointment to come to home to take measurements for shades. Showed up exactly on time and on day promised. Took measurements and told me they would be ordered and should arrive in about 2 weeks. Called just one week after measurements were taken and said shades were ready to hang. Came out next day to hang them. They fit perfectly and look very nice. He cleaned up any mess from installation and disposed of my old shades. Was able to pay for balance with my master card which is a feature I always look for.

B. Whitehouse This was the second time I have worked with Charlie. He is great to work with. He has a lot of experience. He made suggestions and was very patient with me while deciding fabrics/ design. He installed all of the products (blinds, shutters, and drapes) very well. I had a small issue with the shutter; he resolved it quickly and without problem. I would work with Charlie again and I would recommend him!

Mrs. Gibb After I ordered the product, he called as soon as it arrived, a head of schedule. He than arrived at the scheduled time to installed the window coverings. He was very efficient and pleasant while performing the task. I was concerned about some loose threads and he took care of them and assured me that if in the future a problem arose, the company would replace the panels.

Vicki Miller He was very quick to respond to my phone calls and to providing his service. When he hung the finished draperies he went to great lengths to make sure they were hung with absolute precision! He is not only very skilled and professional but also a very nice man!
