We are DFW’s window experts. We can talk about windows all day every day but today we’re going to take a little sidetrack and talk about window treatments.
Window treatments are great for the additional style, privacy, and energy efficiency. When it comes to choosing treatments there are limitless options, check some of them out below.
Plantation shutters are a great choice for a timeless look. A good set of plantation shutters are sized to fit your windows so there are no gaps around the outside. You can open and close slats to your comfort like you can with drapery. Want more light? No problem, open the slats. Want to cool down the house? Easy, close the slats.

Cellular shades are especially great for energy efficiency and insulation. These shades are made of soft paper- or cloth-like material and shaped into honeycomb cells that hold trapped air between the window surface and the room.
