Let’s create your wonderful by helping you know what to expect when you order custom window treatments.
Evaluate Your Current Window Treatments
Before you can begin shopping for new window treatments, you need to understand what you like and dislike about your current treatments. There may be signs that you need to replace your window treatments. Perhaps they show signs of wear and tear. They could be an outdated style that is bringing down the interior decor of your home. These reasons indicate you need to focus on a different design style or more durable materials. Another common reason would be a desire for better coverage or functionality. Perhaps your window treatments do not adequately cover the window or are difficult to operate. In some homes, the current window treatments were not installed at one time. Instead, the homeowners installed them one at a time throughout the course of homeownership. The result is window treatments that do not coordinate or match. Consider these qualities when assessing your current window treatments:
- Light control
- Privacy
- Energy efficiency
- Decor style
This is also a good time to decide on a realistic budget and how many window treatments you want to replace. Having all of this information will give you guidelines for helping you during the buying process.
Compare Window Treatment Styles
Consider different types of window treatment styles to begin the buying process. Some styles provide more effective natural light control, while others are better for privacy or have insulating qualities. Working with a Gotcha Covered professional will simplify the process. They can answer questions and explain how each window treatment style will work in your home. They can advise which style will complement your home’s interior design and architectural style.
Choose Fabrics and Hardware
When buying custom window treatments, the possibilities are endless. Working with a Gotch Covered consultant can help you sort through the options. Your consultant will listen to your needs and tastes to consider appropriate fabrics and hardware. Perhaps this is a choice of sustainable materials for homeowners concerned with environmental friendliness. Or it could be extra durable materials for active homes with children and pets. Ask for samples that let you see the fabric in your home, among your furniture, and in the light of your home.
Measure Your Windows
Before you order window treatments, you must measure your windows. Accuracy is crucial for making your window treatments look their best. Measuring can be tricky, as there are inside and outside mount window treatments. The mounting style will impact how the measurements are taken. But don’t worry - working with a Gotch Covered consultant will simplify the process. Your consultant will measure and re-measure your windows to ensure accuracy.
Order Your Window Treatments
After you have chosen your window treatments and measured your windows, you are ready to order your new custom window treatments. Because your window treatments are custom, they are made when you place your order. Quality craftsmanship takes time, so plan for your window treatment order to take several weeks to complete.
