Enhance Aesthetics and Comfort With Window Coverings

Whether in your home or in your office, window coverings help to keep the sun out of the room, reducing the sun's damage to the furniture, flooring, and other valuable assets. By shutting the blinds, you can block out the heat to make the room cooler. Additionally, window curtains can add to the aesthetics of any area of your home, such as the kitchen, the living room, and the bedroom.

You can give your room or office a tasteful look by choosing window coverings that complement the colours of your walls and furniture. Make your space look more attractive with our range of window coverings in Vancouver and surrounding areas. We also offer window interior shades and exterior shades.

Window Treatment Trends

Since the pandemic, many of us have re-focused our energy from travel and social gatherings to home improvement. We all learn how to make the most of our space. We’re asking more from our living space than ever before with needs such as:

► Telecommuting

► Attending courses remotely

► Using Zoom and so on

 

Using Zoom and so on:

Therefore, home furnishings, paint colour and, of course, window coverings, matter more when you’re at home most of the time. Since 2020, most of us have been looking at new needs for existing rooms. Even if you’re not reorganizing your space to accommodate new needs, upgraded window treatments can make your interior space more enjoyable. Keep in mind that the right window coverings can help your home sell more quickly when the time comes. As we turn the page to another year, the home fashion trends reflect the new normal:

Smart Home Technology:

We all use technology to automate our homes more and more. Smart home technology involves gadgets and devices to operate window coverings with wireless connectivity. It’s a way to add comfort, convenience, and efficiency to our lives. Some fabrics and finishes are elements that pair well with such technology.

Eco-friendliness:

Eco-friendly and locally sourced materials continue to rise in popularity. Energy-efficient window treatment options have remained a top choice for consumers in order to reduce our environmental impact and can keep your house or office warm when it’s cold outside and cooler when the temperature rises.

 

Improved Comfort:

Formality has given way to functionality. Spending more time at home calls for comfort and efficiency. We can work from home, work out at home, and simply connect with family and friends better.

 

Organic Hues

Bringing the outside in continues to influence trending paint colours. Many window treatment fabrics also reflect this trend.

Your window treatments should enhance the style of your decor and furnishings. Contact Newco Solar Solutions in Vancouver and surrounding areas for more information on window treatments, light filtering, light control, and so on. Ask us for a free estimate.

Why Should You Get Window Coverings?

On top of beautifying your home or office, window coverings have other benefits, too such as:

 

Control over room temperature

 When the sun’s rays pass through glass windows, the heat is magnified, resulting in overheating. Window coverings prevent sun rays from entering the room, making it easier to control the room temperature.

 

Comfort

 Blinds on your windows are energy efficient and keep you comfortable in all seasons. They effectively keep out the heat in the summer and the cold in the winter. More comfort in the office can result in more productivity and a better response from customers and clients.

 

Privacy

 Keep your private matters private with window treatments. Blinds give you complete privacy from the outdoors. You can keep your home safe from the peering eyes of strangers.

Reduces dust

 Blinds on your window act as screens and help reduce the amount of dust entering your home.

 

Aesthetics

 Window treatments can transform and enhance the design of any room in your home or office. With unlimited options in colours, designs and materials, you can give each room a special cachet and make your home look gorgeous. There are multiple window shade solutions that can be custom-tailored to your living and working spaces.

 

Protection from sunlight

 Some blinds, like solar and blackout blinds, keep the sun away for good. Blackout blinds can also double as blinds for projection rooms.

 

Protection from UV rays

 Blinds offer protection against UV rays, which can, over an extended period of time, not only damage the look of your wooden tables and floors and the paint on your walls but also make your furniture look dull and ruin artwork.

 

Light control

 Your window treatments and their structure play a significant role in how much light can enter a room. For maximum efficiency, consider our blinds, whether horizontal or vertical. Blinds make it easy to redirect light. If you want to increase the quality of your view, vertical blinds are the better solution.

 

Helps save money

 Window coverings save you money in the summer by reducing the amount of heat entering your space, so that less air conditioning is necessary, and in the winter by reducing the amount of heat lost from your home, so that less heating is required.

 

Added property value

 Blinds and coverings can potentially increase the value of your property. Whether you want to eventually sell your home or not, window treatments offer a great return on investment, as they add beauty and functionality to any room.

 

Promotes well-being

 Reducing glare and sunlight exposure can promote health and make you feel relaxed. In the office, proper window coverings can make way for more productivity in meetings, presentations, and desk work.

 

Depending on your needs, you can choose our quality window coverings in Vancouver. We have what you’re looking for, or we’ll order it for you.

FAQs

The following are some commonly asked questions about our window coverings in Coquitlam and the surrounding areas:

  • Q. I want to reduce glare but don’t want to lose my view – do you have something that will do this?
    A. Yes – in order to reduce glare, you must reduce light. Our custom made Newco solar roller shades will reduce up to 99% of the glare as well as heat and UV rays.
  • Q. Do these shades provide privacy?
    A. Solar shades will give “daytime” privacy or where the light is greater. If it is dark outside and light inside, people can see in and you will not see out, unless you turn your lights off.
  • Q. Do you have shades that will give privacy?
    A. We do have a line of room darkening and light filtering roller shades that will reduce light, heat and give you privacy day and night.
  • Q. I have an arched upper window – should I install a solar shade?
    A. No – roller shades must be horizontal and cannot follow an arched or angled detail. If you require a product to accommodate this type of window, we may be able to make a fixed frame into one of these shapes. Please feel free to contact us for a consultation regarding roller shades in Vancouver.
  • Q. Can we install corded window coverings in our home?
    A. In May 2022 Health Canada put into effect a new ruling that corded window coverings are no longer allowed to be installed in residential homes.
  • Q. If we cannot install corded blinds what are our options?
    A. We can provide cordless roller shades as well as cordless hard window coverings, and we have economical battery-operated options. Call our experts to find out more.
  • Q. I have an upper window – what are my options?
    A. We have motorized shades that can be hard wired, remote or battery operated. If you have an existing home, then the remote plug-in or battery operated shades would be the most economical. If you are renovating or building, the hard wired is a great option.
  • Q. Do your shades come in different shades and colours?
    A. All of our shades are custom made in our Port Coquitlam plant to your specifications. We have materials that range from 80% to 100% shading and are available in a variety of colours.
  • Q. I have skylights that I want to cover on the inside – how can I do that?
    A. We can install our solar roller shades on a tension roller or motorized application. Please contact us for more details.
  • Q. Can I install the shades myself?
    A. Certainly – they are as easy to install as a venetian blind.
